Spend a private day touring Delhi’s most visited temples — from the geometric quiet of the Lotus Temple to ISKCON’s devotional energy and Bangla Sahib’s communal langar. This guided trip blends architecture, ritual, and practical local insight in a single 6–8 hour outing.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step out of an air‑conditioned car into a street that hums with prayer bells, rickshaw calls and the scent of incense. The city’s layers open quickly: a white marble Jain shrine, the petal-formed Lotus Temple, the chant-filled ISKCON halls and the steady calm of Bangla Sahib’s sarovar. Each stop rearranges the day’s tempo — reflective silence at a Baháʼí monument, devotional rhythm at a Krishna temple, communal langar at a Sikh gurdwara.
