Fancy people watching, trying some local delicacies or taking a hundred photos; there is a possibility for all this and much more. . . Under the safety and expertise of your personal expert guide.
We start our day at Chawri Bazaar metro station in Old Delhi, where otherworldly charm awaits us. This colorful part of the city has fascinated visitors for over three centuries. It includes some of the best street food in the city, centuries-old bazaars, historical monuments and numerous religious structures (including India's largest mosque!).
We begin our adventure with a walk in the bazaar near the subway, appreciating the hard-working people pushing the heavy carts through the narrow alleys. Continuing our walk, we stop at the 17th century Jama Masjid mosque. Next, let's explore the wedding accessories market at Kinaari Bazaar. Strolling along this charming street, we stop for a cup of masala chai (India's national drink!) before tucking into the much-loved local snack Paranthas! I'll lead you through a hidden alley, stopping to take photos in front of painted havelis (palaces) dating back to the 19th century. We continue our journey to Khari-Baoli, the largest spice market in Asia!
After our unforgettable adventure, we will take the subway/taxi back to the meeting point.
