A rickshaw threads through the crush of Chandni Chowk while the city exhales around you — spice stalls steaming, vendors calling, pigeons sketching the sunlight over carved facades. That immediate, tactile energy is the opening act on this private eight-hour loop through Old and New Delhi: a curated day that moves from the narrow, living alleys of Mughal-era markets to the wide, planted avenues of Lutyens’ capital.

The route reflects Delhi’s layered past: Delhi’s Sultanate and Mughal monuments like Qutub Minar and Jama Masjid contrast with Lutyens’ early 20th‑century colonial planning in New Delhi.
Conservation
Urban air quality and foot traffic strain fragile monuments; visitors are asked to follow site rules, avoid littering, and use refillable bottles to reduce waste.

Dress and head covering for holy sites
