Delhi Market & Street Food Walk (Half-Day, Women-Led)

Delhi's night markets, with a woman leading and the stalls already vetted.

Two things make this different from wandering into a market yourself. The guide is a woman, which for a lot of travellers changes how the evening feels in crowded lanes. And the food stops are hygiene-checked in advance rather than picked on the night — which matters more than any other consideration on a street food tour in India.

Where you go

Delhi's markets run late, and the evening ones are where the city actually eats. Depending on the route: the lanes around Chandni Chowk still trading after dark, Lajpat Nagar's food street, Majnu ka Tilla for Tibetan momos, or the Karol Bagh stretch.

What you eat

Five or six curated tastings, chosen for what each place does well rather than what is nearest. Expect chaat in its proper form, kebabs cooked over coals, momos, kulfi or jalebi to finish, and chai from a pot that has been going since morning.

Options

Two at checkout, both covering the night market and street food walk with private transport.

Included

Expert female guide, five to six curated street food tastings, bottled water, private transport, and hygiene-checked stops throughout.

Worth knowing

Who it suits

Women travelling alone or in groups, first-time visitors nervous about street food, and anyone who wants Delhi after dark rather than another monument.
