Amazing tour - thank you Mona! - Had the most amazing tour around Delhi with Mona! We are here for a work trip and wanted to see as much of Delhi as possible in a short time. Mona’s tour exceeded all expectations! Having been told there wasn’t much to see in Delhi, we’ve definitely been convinced otherwise. Mona took us to so many incredible spots, including Delhi Old Town where we would have been completely lost without his local knowledge. He allowed us to customise our tour to hit all the spots we’d wanted to see, and knew the answers to all of our many questions. If you don’t know where to start with exploring Delhi, then highly recommend a day tour with Mona! Thanks so much to Mona and our driver (who expertly navigated Delhi’s hectic streets). An experience we will never forget!!

Immersive tour of New Delhi - Jatin lead an immersive one day Delhi tour for a friend and I. I initially booked this tour more for my friend (her first visit to Delhi, whereas I had previously visited); I joined the tour so my friend wouldn’t have to go alone. Jatin, however, is an immersive storyteller and put his own spin on the tour. Even having previously toured these areas, with Jatin I really enjoyed this repeat visit.

Mona is the best! - Mona is an excellent tour guide! We spent a full day with him on a customized, private tour of Delhi. I reached out with a proposed list of places and Mona took it from there and put together an excellent and manageable itinerary. His communication pre-tour was always timely and professional and he was also punctual. His enthusiasm for the places and information he shared with us made a long day of sightseeing seeing fly by and it was great for helping combat jet lag having just landed the night before. He was accommodating throughout, adapted the plan as needed based on changing circumstances and kept control of things even in hectic and crowded situations. As if that wasn’t enough, he’s an ace with the camera and many of the photos he took are our favorites of the trip. You can tell he is an experienced guide who loves what he does. Thanks, Mona, for an excellent start to our holiday in India.

Great with kids - We visited India with our two boys age 5 and 7 and did a half day tour in Delhi as well as a day trip to Agra.
India can be a bit overwhelming for little kids and Mona was fantastic with them, explaining interesting facts to them and understanding their needs and that tired, jet lagged kids might not always make the best travel partners!
Mona took the trouble out of planning, he recommended great itineraries, had great drivers, helped buy tickets and even took some great family photos for us!
We had a great time on both trips and would highly recommend!

Pleasant and insightful tour - The tour with Mona has been very interesting from the start. He is a great host and a very amiable person to talk to. He has a great knowledge of the city history and gave us some valuable insights on the melting pot that is Delhi.
He gave us time to visit the landmarks by ourselves, so we could make our own idea and then discuss it with him afterwards. Mona not only took us to some must-see monuments, but included other hidden gems as well, that made the tour even more worthwhile.
Definitely recommend booking this tour to get a true feeling of what old Delhi is and represents for the locals.

MAGICAL DELHI WITH MONA - Mona is the best guide I have ever met, since before our arrival in India gave us recommendations for accommodation and other doubts, always providing us confidence, today we made a magical and fascinating tour between temples, emblematic places full of history that Mona makes very interesting to explain being very precise and brief throughout, we entered spice markets full of exquisite smells, colors and fascinating decorations in other markets. I am very happy to have been able to enjoy this part of beautiful Delhi now knowing more about its history and the meaning of many things I had doubts and Mona has left us delighted with everything!
I am very happy to have spent a wonderful day with Mona and the driver who has been super friendly, attentive and with excellent Service in the car, always with air conditioning and cold waters.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I recommend it 100000%

Excellent tour if this is your first time in India. Highly recommended. - It was an amazing experience thanks to Mona, from start to finish he made us feel confident and safe, even before we met in person he gave us good advice and was watching our arrival.
Specifically the tour is varied and very interesting touching on historical, political, religious themes of daily life and food. Mona has a lot of knowledge that complements each of the stops and makes it more enjoyable and entertaining all day, you can ask him about anything and he will have an answer or see how to give it to you either in English or Spanish.
Another very important point is the chauffeur “Gurmid” is a polite and very friendly professional person which makes you forget everything and just focus on watching, listening and enjoying.
Recommended 100%!!!!
