    Good easy half day tour

    Nice half day tour going around Delhi with Habib and Ankit. We got to see the tomb and visited the Lotus Temple in the late afternoon. The ride was comfortable and we got to see a lot of things before they dropped me back off.

    A Perfect Day in Delhi

    I returned in India after 17 years to visit Ladakh but I spent also one day in Delhi before my flight home. I was lucky to book this full day tour and to be the guest of my excellent guide, Sunil Poddar and one of the best drivers, Naval. The tour was excellent organized even I booked it later in the evening one day beforr, Mr Sunil experience in tourism is a great one, I appreciated aldo his courtesy, the baggage of information and I must mention also that he is a very good photographer. In fact I had a perfect team - information, sense of humour, hospitality and the day was a wonderful one. I'd like to return to visit with a small group of friends the South India so I'll be keep in touch with these two guys which became my friends. I can't mrntion the excellent lunch and the shopping after. Thank you so much, Sunil and Naval for a perfect last day in India, hope to be your guest soon. I strongly recommend this tour and this team.

    Delhi guided sightseeing day trip: No value add from tour guide

    We used Pioneer Travels for a guided day trip that included the Red Fort, Jama Masjid, Sisganj Gurudwara, Qutub Minar, Humayun's Tomb, India Gate, Lotus Temple and Presidential Buildings. The tour included the vehicle, driver and tour guide. Having a driver who was familiar with the itinerary and sights was quite helpful to cover a fair bit of sightseeing in a day (although the metro is also a good option). However, I am not sure that the tour guide added any value to the trip. In the first instance, he was quite a bit late to meet us. Secondly, despite having clearly explained to him that we did not want to lunch in a “tourist trap” and having declined his suggestions, we ultimately ended up having lunch in exactly that. The tour guide initially explained that no other restaurants were en route, despite the reputable restaurant “Karim’s” being a 5-minute drive from the chosen lunch spot. After some prodding, he explained that the tour company did not allow him to take its clients to any other restaurants. More generally speaking, the tour guide seemed to offer neither valuable or insightful information of the sights (explanations became increasingly limited towards the end of the day) and during a part of the voyage was watching music videos on his mobile. At the end of the day, we requested a short shopping trip, to which the tour guide explained that “Delhi Haat” (unlikely close in name to the charming “Dilli Haat”), which was a hard sell tourist boutique. I would suggest using a different tour company (or visiting the sights on your own) where the tour guide can add something to your sightseeing.

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your feedback. We are extremely sorry from the bottom of our heart and we will make sure it won't happen again with our future customers. We wish to see you again with us.

    Private Old and New Delhi Tour With Lunch: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Private Old and New Delhi Tour With Lunch cost?

    +

    Prices start at $18 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 Tour With Lunch 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 Tour With Lunch worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.1/5 across 7 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 Tour With Lunch?

    +

    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 Tour With Lunch 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 Tour With Lunch?

    +

    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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Old and New Delhi Tour With Lunch 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 Private Old and New Delhi Tour With Lunch?

    +
