Wide-ranging tour of Delhi, fascinating and comfortable
Thoughtful itinerary which passes through a wide range of religious buildings, Baha'i, Muslim, Hindu, and Sikh. The guide was articulate and helpful, and having a private driver was an efficient way of covering the sights of an often overwhelming city. The guide managed to fit in a walk through the old market, stopping for the most delicious lassi ever. A highlight was visiting the massive kitchen at the Sikh temple, filled with an assembly line of volunteers and machines preparing thousands of meals for pilgrims. Highly recommended way to learn more about Delhi and varied Indian practices.
Response from the operator: Hello Mam, Thank you so much for appreciating my work as a guide for your trip. It gives me immense pleasure to provide local experiences to my guests and make them happy. Looking forward to hosting you sometime future in your visit to Delhi. Thanks Deepak

Excellent Guide & Customer Service
We have used Deepak several times when we have visited Delhi, and we will continue to use him on any future trips. We have used him for the Old Delhi, temples, and food tours. He has a wealth of information about the city, temples, and history. One of the things we like most about having Deepak as a guide is that he adjusts the level of detail we're interested in for each place we visit. He knows when we want to learn more, and when we have learned enough about a location and are ready to move on. He has great communication skills including speaking English well. And he's also entertaining - we had a lot of fun with all of our experiences with him! My colleagues/friends highly recommend working with Deepak!!
Response from the operator: Dear Paul, Thanks a lot for your kind and lovely feedback about my services as a guide. It had always been my pleasure to have you,Mark and his colleagues on a trip to Delhi to absorb Delhi's culture and traditions. I hope to see you soon in your next visit to Delhi. Regards, Deepak

Best tour
When we wanted to visit the markets in Delhi, we weren't sure what to expect but were lucky to have hired Deepak. He is very friendly (made us feel like we were travelling with an adventurous local friend), professional and knowledgeable, has an amazing level of English and also made us feel really safe. He made sure we get to experience some of what the locals do by taking us not only to the historic (most touristic) landmarks but also to the Chandni Chowk and spice markets and to eat local food such as the delicious paratha bread. We liked him so much that we decided to book him again for another tour of Delhi which included Qutub Minar, India Gate and Lodi Gardens and others. This tour was once again a memorable experience thanks to him. I cannot stress enough how good and friendly Deepak is. Recommended for your next visit.
Response from the operator: Dear Moises, Thank you very much for your lovely feedback. I feel happy that you and Maite, really found in me a local friend rather than a traditional guide. I always try to make my clients comfortable so that this process of exchange of cultures and knowledge keeps going on. See you on your next visit to India! Deepak

Great experience in India
I highly recommend him as a tour guide. He was able to enhance the real Experience. Touring around, eating at local restaurants and overall getting to know the city as if you were a local. Because of his high education, he is extremely knowledgeable in history and science. Great experience overall!!
Response from the operator: Dear Jorge, It was really a great privilege for me to have you and your family on a tour of Old Delhi and Temples. I am on a mission to make experiences of my clients happy and it feels great you were satisfied with my services. Looking forward to seeing you soon! Best Regards, Deepak

Amazing experience!
Deepak was a fantastic guide through Old Delhi! We enjoyed fantastic street food and visited beautiful temples. He is extremely knowledgeable and felt more like a friendly travel companion rather than a tour guide. It was a great way to spend the day and a good value for the money. I highly recommend it!
Response from the operator: Dear Jamila, It was really a great evening having spent with you, your dad and sister. Guests like you really keep me motivated to work in a positive manner and provide genuine experiences. I always want to be a local companion rather than being called a traditional tour guide. See you soon! Best Regards, Deepak

Why this scores 65
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Old Delhi and Temples tour with a Local: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New Delhi.
How much does Old Delhi and Temples tour with a Local cost?
+
Prices start at $31 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 Delhi and Temples tour with a Local take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Delhi and Temples tour with a Local worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in New Delhi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Old Delhi and Temples tour with a Local?
+
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 Delhi and Temples tour with a Local suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 3. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 7-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Old Delhi and Temples tour with a Local?
+
Around 2 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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Old Delhi and Temples tour with a Local 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 Private Tour By AC Car From Delhi with 5* Meal, Taj Mahal & Agra Fort Private Day Trip From Delhi with 5* Lunch, Taj Mahal, Agra Fort and Baby Taj Day Tour from Delhi by Car. 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.
