India Tour Express Company's Private Tour of Old and New Delhi
The vibrant center of India, Delhi, is a mesmerizing fusion of historic customs and contemporary wonders. With its imposing Mughal forts, colonial streets, vibrant bazaars, and contemporary skyscrapers, the city is a story of two worlds: Old Delhi and New Delhi. The India Tour Express Company's Old and New Delhi Private Tour is the ideal method to see this dual personality in comfort and style in a single, life-changing day.

The tour starts with a private, air-conditioned vehicle picking you up from your hotel. A pleasant and informed guide will accompany you as you explore the vibrant culture and rich history of India's capital.

Usually, your trip begins in Old Delhi, the ancient walled city established by Shah Jahan, the Mughal emperor. The first destination is Jama Masjid, one of India's biggest mosques, where hundreds of people congregate every day for prayers. For sweeping views of the busy city below, ascend its minaret. From there, take a rickshaw ride through Chandni Chowk, a bustling yet quaint marketplace with stories to be told in every lane, from street food and spice stores to ancient havelis and secret shrines.

The magnificent Red Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that was formerly the Mughal capital, will then be your next stop. Its structure, significance, and the historical events that took place within its walls will all be covered in interesting detail by your guide.

You'll notice the change in energy and architecture as soon as you move to New Delhi. The capital is shown differently by its wide boulevards, tree-lined streets, and colonial-era structures. For a view of India's political power centers, your guide will first take you to India Gate, a war memorial dedicated to Indian soldiers, and then to Parliament House and the Presidential Palace (Rashtrapati Bhavan).

The highest brick minaret in the world and another UNESCO World Heritage Site, Qutub Minar, comes next on the list. You'll also see Humayun's Tomb, a marvel of Mughal architecture and the source of the Taj Mahal's architectural inspiration. Lush gardens encircle both locations, making them ideal for peaceful contemplation and photography.

The journey can also include visits to Gurudwara Bangla Sahib, a tranquil Sikh temple renowned for its communal kitchen (langar) and spiritual environment, or Lotus Temple, a Bahá'í House of Worship renowned for its flower-like architecture, depending on your preferences.

You will be treated to a delectable lunch at a neighborhood restaurant halfway during the tour, where you may savor real North Indian food. Whether you want to try paneer tikka, butter chicken, or dal makhani, your guide can help you choose the best meals to sample.

This tour's flexibility and individualized attention are what really set it apart. You may go at your own speed, skip the parts you don't want to see, and focus more on the areas that pique your interest because it's a private tour. Your guide can customize the day to fit your interests, whether they be in history, architecture, spirituality, cuisine, or shopping.
