An Excellent Half-Day Tour of New Delhi’s Must-See Sights
We had a fantastic half-day tour of New Delhi, visiting Qutub Minar, Humayun’s Tomb, and the Lotus Temple. Our guide Bhavdeep was very professional and knowledgeable, sharing great information about each site while patiently answering all our questions about Indian culture and religion. He also knew the best photo spots at every location and took us to a delicious restaurant for lunch (Imperial Spice)! Our driver, Aiyub, was efficient and made getting around easy. Overall, it was a wonderful day well spent. Highly recommend!

Why this scores 92
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Old and New Delhi Full Day or Half Day Tour - Best of Delhi City: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New Delhi.
How much does Old and New Delhi Full Day or Half Day Tour - Best of Delhi City cost?
+
Prices start at $10 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in New Delhi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Old and New Delhi Full Day or Half Day Tour - Best of Delhi City take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in New Delhi is not rushed.
Is Old and New Delhi Full Day or Half Day Tour - Best of Delhi City worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 92 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 486 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in New Delhi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Old and New Delhi Full Day or Half Day Tour - Best of Delhi City?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Old and New Delhi Full Day or Half Day Tour - Best of Delhi City suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Old and New Delhi Full Day or Half Day Tour - Best of Delhi City?
+
Around 170 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in New Delhi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in New Delhi and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Old and New Delhi Full Day or Half Day Tour - Best of Delhi City start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central New Delhi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in New Delhi?
+
On Outty we rank every New Delhi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Taj Mahal & Agra Fort Private Day Trip From Delhi with 5* Lunch, 5 Nights 6 Days Private Golden Triangle Tour - Delhi Agra Jaipur, Old & New Delhi Private City Tour – Traveler’s Choice (Top Rated). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit New Delhi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in New Delhi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
