Great tour for my short transit day in Delhi
I needed a bit of a custom-made tour because I had a 13-hour stretch between my flights, so Maninder made the arrangements so that they would go with my schedule, but also with the conditions in New Delhi - where there was a big protest happening. He was always responsive and everything went smooth. The pick-up went super smooth, driver was great. The guide Nikhil did a great job at giving me the Delhi flavour and helping me unpack a lot in the little time we had, with good humour and great candidness. I highly recommend booking this.
Response from the operator: Thankyou so much for your excellent review ABT your delhi City tour and iam happy you liked guide and driver service hope see you again for more incredible places in India

Tour of Old Delhi and Spice Markets
Had an amazing time with Maninder getting a personalized tour through Old Delhi and the Spice Markets. His timing was impeccable as he arrived 10 minutes before the appointed pickup time at our hotel and returned us exactly at the time he advised us when originally booking! We appreciated his knowledge of the area and the ability to tailor our tour on the go to discover further points of interest. We really felt welcomed and a sincere effort to share and educate us on his culture. I can fully recommend!
Response from the operator: Thankyou so much for your excellent review ABT delhi City tour and glad you like my service hope see you again for more incredible places

Excellent Tour Guide!
Maninder is an excellent guide, very friendly, knowledgeable on history and connected with locals. He gave an excellent tour of Old Delhi’s back streets and was able to connect me with artisans from his native Kashmir. He is also a skilled driver who safely manages the chaos of Delhi’s streets and highways.
Response from the operator: Thankyou so much for your excellent review for delhi City tour hope see you again for more incredible places

Amazing tour by Maninder.
With only one day to spend in Delhi, we booked a tour with Maninder based on high recommendations from colleagues who had used his services. We chose the Old Delhi tour, which included an amazing rickshaw ride through the spice market. Maninder met us right at our hotel and stayed with us the entire time, even accompanying us during the rickshaw ride. He is exceptionally knowledgeable, patient, and a true gentleman. We highly recommend him!
Response from the operator: Thankyou so much for your excellent review and your kind words for me hope see you again for more incredible places in India

Why this scores 86
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Old and New Delhi Sightseeing Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New Delhi.
How much does Private Old and New Delhi Sightseeing Tour 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 Private Old and New Delhi Sightseeing Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Private Old and New Delhi Sightseeing Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 90 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 Private Old and New Delhi Sightseeing Tour?
+
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 Private Old and New Delhi Sightseeing Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Old and New Delhi Sightseeing Tour?
+
Around 31 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Old and New Delhi Sightseeing Tour 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.

+
Included: Private Tour Guide; Hotel/Airport Pick up/Drop off; Transfers/sightseeing by a private air-conditioned car; and Packaged Drinking Water. Not included: Lunch/Monument Entrance fees; and Anything that is not specifically mentioned in above Inclusions. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+

What languages is Private Old and New Delhi Sightseeing Tour offered in?
+
