Fabulous Old Delhi Tour - The booking process is easy and you get picked up at your hotel at 5:30am for a 6am start in old Delhi. Typically there are 10 -12 people in the group, led by 2 guides. All the bikes are new and easy to ride. The 3 hour cycle through old Delhi is fantastic, you could not do this by yourself, as you would never find your way out! As the morning progresses,. the lane ways get more busy, but still the cycling is easy. Well recommended way to see the real Delhi.

great time with Delhi early in the morning - great time with Spin Monkey on bikes for early biking along Old Delhi. Amazing stories to be told, great places to be seen. Our guides took great care of us especially when crossing big junctions (everyone knows how indian road look like) and changed the route a bit when they got to know that once place was aready seen by us.

The best city tour company in Delhi - Actually, we went to India to celebrate my best friend's jubilee birthday. Thus, about 2 months before the trip I was thinking how to organize the day to be memorable. Contacted several people and companies in Delhi asking for suggestions. And suddenly I found SpinMonkey on internet! Anchit Doegar was so creative, great and patience while I was changing my mind several times per day. As we are not very good at cycling,- decided just to walk in the Old Delhi in the morning with a guide. We visited the most interesting places of the old city leading by two the most professional Indian guides. The birthday was really a wonderful day, full of new experiences and surprises!!! Everything was done extremely glamorous, culturally, informatively. And Anchit helped us a lot after the tour, as we had to leave the city for Agra in the evening. He even organized a taxi for us as it was not easy for a foreigner to order a car on internet. My friend was incredibly happy about her birthday. If you ever come to Delhi, I strongly advise to contact SpinMonkeys for sightseeing tour in the city. The company has so many suggestions for each client how to make the day mostly memorable. No doubt !!!

Must do! - The guys who run SpinMonkey are the perfect balance of fun and professional. Could not have asked for a better company to walk you safely through the manic streets of Old Delhi. So much more than a food tour, it's sightseeing, culture, history all while feeling safe and having an absolute blast! Do yourself a favour and get yourself on one of their tours.
