The tour was great! It was just me and another guy, plus the guide, Ashish. Ashish was really friendly, helpful, and extremly knowledgeable about Delhi and Indian history. We went through the narrow streets of Chandni Chowk, to Jama Masjid and to a Sikh temple, and we had an awesome lunch.

A great way to get a feel for Delhi without getting lost! Travel by train and tuk tuk gave me confidence to do it again by myself. Temples and Chandi Chowk were fascinating and the guide was knowledgable and helpful
