Welcome to Delhi - India's bustling capital city!
From the spacious and planned streets of New Delhi, built as the imperial capital of India by the British, to action packed Old Delhi, which served as the capital of Islamic India, Delhi is perhaps one of the best examples in the world where the 'old' meets the 'new'. Strolling through the streets of Delhi the contrasts continue. You will experience the ringing bells of bicycle rickshaws, see Mercedes Benz cars driving around and even dodge the odd resting cow in the middle of a busy intersection. Eating out also offers a variety of options from a rich Mughlai curry to a wood fired pizza. On this sightseeing tour of Old and New Delhi your senses will come alive as you encounter the many sights and sounds this amazing city has to offer.
In the morning, you will be transferred from your hotel and leave for your tour of Old Delhi. You will visit Raj Ghat and Shanti Vana, the cremation sites of Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru (India's first Prime Minister), Jama Masjid, the biggest Mosque in India, drive past the famous Red Fort, which is a Moghul monument made of red sand stone, as well as visit Chandni Chowk, an old and busy market.After lunch, either at the hotel or any restaurant, (lunch is at your own expense) you will visit New Delhi. In New Delhi you will visit sights such as the impressive Qutub Minar, built by Qutub-ud-Din Aibek in 1199 from sandstone and marble, Humayun's Tomb, India Gate (War Memorial Arch) and Lakshminarayan Temple, a modern Hindu Temple. You will drive past the President's House, Parliament House, Government Secretariat Buildings and Connaught Place shopping centre.
