Tour description

 IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING


This tour requires a minimum number of participants to run, so kindly reach out to confirm availability before booking.

In line with the GuruWalk concept, tips are appreciated and given separately. The typical range is €10 to €50 or 1000 to 5000 INR per person, not per group.

Please only book if you are genuinely interested and can commit to the scheduled time. Unfortunately, in the past, we’ve had instances where guests confirmed but didn’t show up or canceled last minute. This affects us greatly, as we invest time, effort, and costs in preparing for each tour. Thank you for understanding. 

  


Join a educational walk through Sanjay Colony, a lively slum in Delhi. Led by local guides from the community, this tour offers a unique look into everyday life in their neighborhood. 

Located near the Bahá'í Lotus Temple and ISKCON Hare Krishna Temple, Sanjay Colony covers 25 acres and is home to around 50,000 people. 

Once forest land, it's now a bustling area with small industries like garment recycling, automotive parts, and electronics. Challenge stereotypes and learn about the real-life stories of slum life. 

See how people work, meet residents, and connect with the community’s youth. Visit a Hindu temple and a mosque, showing the area’s rich cultural and religious diversity.

 Despite its challenges, Sanjay Colony thrives with strong community spirit and resilience.
