Discover Old Delhi: 3-hour group tour. Explore India\u2019s largest mosque with stunning Mughal domes and courtyards.

Your Old Delhi adventure begins with a Meet-up at the Meeting Point & taking subway straight to the magnificent Jama Masjid, India's largest mosque with its stunning Mughal domes and minarets. After exploring its vast courtyards, your guide leads you through the lively lanes of Dariba Kalan (silver street) and Kinari Bazaar, filled with glittering jewelry shops and traditional artisans at work.

Pause at picturesque Naughara for photos amid its colorful heritage homes, then visit the ornate Jain Temple, a tranquil gem of intricate carvings and spiritual calm. Next, refuel at Paranthe Wali Gali with delicious stuffed paranthas that burst with Indian spices, as your guide shares captivating stories of Old Delhi's culinary heritage and living traditions.

Walk on to Gurudwara Sis Ganj Sahib, where you can explore the bustling community kitchen that embodies selfless service, and seek blessings at this historic Sikh shrine. Board a traditional cycle rickshaw to Khari Baoli, Asia's largest spice market, interacting with shopkeepers to learn everyday cooking uses and centuries-old Ayurvedic benefits of Indian spices.

Optional shopping lets you browse shops freely and purchase safely sealed spice packs to take home without customs worries—entirely at your discretion. The tour ends with a final rickshaw ride through vibrant backstreets of Old Delhi & dropping back to the meeting point.

Note: The 4‑Hour “Echoes of Shahjahanabad: The People’s Delhi” itinerary is as follows:

Start with Halwa & Bedmi breakfast, then visit Chitragupt’s temple, Naya Mandir, and ISKCON’s courtyard. Explore Jama Masjid, stroll Dariba Kalan & Kinari Bazaar, pause at Naughara, and pass by Paranthe Wali Gali. Honor faith at Sis Ganj Sahib, ride to Khari Baoli spice market, pass by the Peepal’s Tree Mahadev, and end near St. Stephen’s Church.

Breakfast featuring Halwa & Bedmi is offered exclusively on Sundays.
