    Loved it! Incredible authentic experience!

    The moment we entered the busy lanes of Old Delhi, the experience became an adventure. The sights, aromas, and constant activity created an atmosphere unlike anywhere else. We stopped at some excellent food spots and discovered flavors. The spice market was especially memorable. Moving through the crowds by rickshaw added another fun element. A wonderful experience enjoyed local culture, authentic surroundings, and discovering Delhi through its food.

    Old Delhi Stret Food, Spices and Aromas After Sunset

    What a fun way to spend an evening in Delhi! The streets around Chandni Chowk were full of activity, aromas, and people, creating a wonderfully lively atmosphere. Tushar made the walk easy to enjoy and tailored the food stops according to our interests. We tried local snacks and desserts without feeling overloaded with food. The rickshaw ride was another highlight. The overall visit was comfortable and well organized. Ideal for travelers, couples, or friends looking for a relaxed taste of Old Delhi.

    A Delicious Way to Discover Delhi

    As a woman travelling alone, I always pay close attention to safety and getting an authentic local experience. This Delhi street food tour delivered on both. My guide knew the city well and made me feel comfortable while we walked through the busy streets. We tried the famous chaat in Chandni Chowk and enjoyed some delicious parathas, with every stop bringing something different. I would highly recommend this tour to travellers who want to explore the city’s food scene with a knowledgeable guide.

    Amazing Experience and Wonderful Discovery!

    We absolutely loved street food and were lucky to have Tarun as our guide. He was friendly, enthusiastic, speaks fluent English. The best parts was simply wandering through the busy streets and taking a rickshaw ride. Seeing local people going about their normal routines, surrounded by so much noise, color, movement, and incredible aromas, made the experience feel genuinely authentic. We got to experience a lively side of Delhi that we probably wouldn’t have discovered on our own. We loved every single food item and drink that we had! Would definitely recommend to anyone - thanks so much Tarun and Incredible India Viajes. A memorable experience that we’ll be talking about for a long time.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted that you enjoyed the food, rickshaw ride, and authentic Old Delhi experience. We’re especially happy to hear that Tarun made your experience memorable. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to India soon!

    Old Delhi Food Walk: Street Food, Spice Market & Chandani Chowk: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New Delhi.

    How much does Old Delhi Food Walk: Street Food, Spice Market & Chandani Chowk cost?

    +

    Prices start at $50 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 Food Walk: Street Food, Spice Market & Chandani Chowk 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 Delhi Food Walk: Street Food, Spice Market & Chandani Chowk worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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 Food Walk: Street Food, Spice Market & Chandani Chowk?

    +

    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 Food Walk: Street Food, Spice Market & Chandani Chowk 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 Delhi Food Walk: Street Food, Spice Market & Chandani Chowk?

    +

    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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Old Delhi Food Walk: Street Food, Spice Market & Chandani Chowk 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.

    What is included in Old Delhi Food Walk: Street Food, Spice Market & Chandani Chowk?

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Old Delhi Food Walk: Street Food, Spice Market & Chandani Chowk?

    +

    Is Old Delhi Food Walk: Street Food, Spice Market & Chandani Chowk wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
