Steam rises from kettles and syrup drips in bright threads as you step through Jama Masjid’s gate into lanes that sing with spice. The guide threads you past hawkers and ancient shutter-front shops, handing you small plates of kachori, jalebi, kulfi and, for non-vegetarians, slow-smoked Mughlai kebabs — each bite a direct line to the city’s layered past.

Conservation
Street-food zones generate significant single-use waste; bring a reusable bottle, decline plastic where possible, and support vendors who use minimal packaging.
Reserve your spot on the Old Delhi Street Food Tour today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Carry small-denomination cash
Many vendors prefer or only accept cash; bring small notes for tastings and tips.
Wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes
Expect uneven pavements and crowded lanes—supportive shoes make the walking and standing tastings easier.
Bring hand sanitizer and napkins
Street-food sampling means frequent hand contact; sanitation keeps the experience pleasant and safe.
Time your visit to avoid midday heat
Mornings or late afternoons offer cooler temperatures and better sampling conditions in summer.
Comfortable walking shoes
Support and traction for crowded, uneven streets and market alleys.
Lightweight daypack or money pouch
Keeps water, sanitizer and small purchases secure while you move between stalls.
Sun hat & sunscreen
Sun protection for open rooftops and exposed stretches between markets.
