Full description

Delhi: Old Delhi Street Food & Heritage Tour with Rickshaw. Taste Old Delhi street food with a knowledgeable local guide.

Discover the flavours, history, and everyday life of India’s capital on an Old Delhi street food and heritage tour through its bustling lanes, traditional markets, and centuries-old neighbourhoods.

Meet your local guide and begin exploring the heart of Old Delhi on foot. Along the way, taste a selection of popular local foods from carefully chosen vendors while learning about the dishes, ingredients, traditions, and stories behind Delhi’s famous street-food culture.

Choose the daytime vegetarian experience for a completely vegetarian Old Delhi food tour featuring favourites such as freshly prepared jalebis, parathas, chaats, sweets, and other local specialities.

For travellers who would like to experience both sides of Delhi’s food culture, choose an evening mixed-food experience. Enjoy a combination of vegetarian favourites and selected non-vegetarian specialities such as traditional kebabs, together with chaats, sweets, and other dishes associated with Old Delhi.

The experience is more than a food tasting. Walk through historic lanes and lively bazaars as your guide introduces you to the heritage and culture that shaped this part of the city. Visit the colourful spice market and experience the sights, aromas, and energy of one of Old Delhi’s most distinctive trading areas.

Enjoy an included cycle-rickshaw ride through the busy streets and narrow lanes, giving you another perspective on the neighbourhood while moving between different parts of the food and heritage route.

Your guide will help you understand what you are tasting, recommend how each dish is traditionally eaten, and share local stories that bring Old Delhi to life beyond its monuments.

Whether you choose the vegetarian daytime tour or the mixed vegetarian and non-vegetarian evening tour, come ready to taste, explore, and experience Old Delhi through the food, markets, heritage, and street life that make it one of Delhi’s most memorable neighbourhoods.
