Through the tour we immerse ourselves in the story of Shahjahanabad also called Old Delhi. Beyond its historical significance, Old Delhi stands as a testament to cultural diversity, exemplifying the harmonious coexistence of various communities.
We learn about the glorious Chandni Chowk established in the 17th century as we take a rickshaw ride to observe the syncretism that thrives in the old city.
Head to the famous Paranthe Wali Gali for a traditional lunch. Indulge in quirky paranthas, a must-try in Chandni Chowk. Savor the flavors and ponder the question, “Did you even go to Old Delhi if you didn’t go to Paranthe Wali Gali?”
Explore Khari Baoli, the biggest spice market in Asia. Engage your senses in the aromatic ambience as you explore the diverse array of spices. Enjoy a cup of chai and see the magic of spices come alive in our most loved beverage.
We take another rickshaw ride through the narrow, bustling lanes of Old Delhi and absorb the vibrant atmosphere of markets like Dariba Kalan, known for its jewellery and outfits. We conclude the Shahjahanad story at the majestic Jama Masjid, the largest mosque in Delhi.
You’ll also sit beside one of Delhi’s last remaining calligraphy artists and try your hand at the craft. You’ll carry home a piece of this fading tradition, your own handwritten keepsake in Urdu, a language once known for its grace and poetry, now quietly slipping away. And once your page is full and your heart a little fuller, we’ll end the experience with a delicious cup of chai.
Join us on this immersive journey through the heart of Old Delhi, where history, culture, and gastronomy converge to create an unforgettable experience.
