Delicious food and excellent guide - This was a brilliant experience! Our excellent tour guide Stanleuy led a group of 3 of us through the markets of Old Delhi to sample an incredible selection of street food whilst teaching us a bit about the history of the area at the same time. Would absolutely recommend!

Incredible food with a wonderful guide - Fabulous experience. Stanley took a small group of 3 of us, all strangers, on a 4 hour walking tour of Old Delhi. He was knowledgeable and charming, and nothing was too much trouble to make sure that we had a good time. The food was astonishing - some of the best street food I've ever had. Since he knows all the best places, and all the sellers, we rarely waited in line and sampled around 10 dishes from across the town. I would very highly recommend

Amazing and highly recommended experience! - We did this walking food tour with Stanley as our guide and it was absolutely brilliant! He was so knowledgeable and able to talk us through the areas that we were in, the different business types, food types etc. We ate SO MUCH food, my biggest recommendation to anyone doing this tour is to skip lunch! You will need to come hungry, but your taste buds will thank you for it! The team have hunted down some excellent establishments and it's all in such a great order. We walked, got the metro, travelled in a bicycle rickshaw, electric rickshaw and auto rickshaw. Lots of drinks were provided (we visited in May 24 and it was VERY warm) and the whole tour was at a very relaxed pace. One of the most noteworthy things for us was that if we visited Chadni Chowk alone for the first time as opposed to doing this tour we wouldn't have been able to navigate the area and take it all in with such ease! A highly recommended experience and one of the most interesting (and delicious)! Things we did whilst in Delhi!

Best Delhi tour!! Hands down - Stanley was a real gem of a tour guide! We have now done a handful of tours in Delhi through Viator- this tour was our favorite. There was zero push to buy anything, only if we wanted to purchase items he gave us his recommendations. In my experience, previous tour guides have tried to keep selling more and more to us. We had to beg Stanley to take our tip! He also allowed us to complete this review in our own time (other guides have pressured us to write the review in front of them). Tried many delicious different foods, also learned a lot about the history of Old Delhi. We experienced Old Delhi through the metro, rikshas, and walking! Wonderful way to learn about the city and get immersed in the culture.

Excellent, no nonsense tour with great guide - Stanley is a CLASS ACT. Highly recommend. Every other tour we’ve done with other companies, the tour guide put high pressure on us to buy things and used other annoying and uncomfortable sales tactics that were irrelevant to the tour. Not Stanley. We expected a food tour and that’s exactly what we got. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and adept at navigating busy streets and showing us a good time and most importantly DELICIOUS FOOD. Can’t recommend him enough!

Very authentic local experience with great guide! - This food walk was an amazing experience and Parul is a great guide who made us feel very welcome and safe. Great for anyone interested in street food and you won't be disappointed when Parul takes you through quirky streets and hidden gems off the beaten track. Can't wait to come again!

Great way to tour Old Delhi - The tour was an excellent way to tour Old Delhi in a safe, efficient, and comfortable way. Stanley was our guide and he was friendly and knowledgeable. I don’t know that we could have found our way easily around Chandni Chowk without a guide so the tour was great for touring the markets. The food was good but we wished for a better variety. It would have been nice to have the meal at the end in an air conditioned establishment so that we could have enjoyed it more. Due to the heat we rushed through it.
