Summary

Start your tour by meeting your guide in the heart of Old Delhi. Then head out to explore the busy streets and back alleys of the former Mughal capital, which is famous for its savory and sweet flavors. Hop a cycle rickshaw and listen to the chaotic soundtrack of the city as you make your way to popular bazaars like Khari Baoli, Asia’s largest spice market, and the unruly shopping mecca of Chandni Chowk, where you find everything from stationary to bridal saris. Dishes vary depending on the season, guaranteeing maximum freshness. You might sample a crispy hot jalebi (deep-fried funnel cake), topped with condensed milk, or dahi bhalle, a street snack with dumplings covered in yogurt and chutney.
