Funny Delhi day
If you want to spend a really fun, enriching, interesting, and delicious day in Delhi—choose Indiventure Travellers!!! My friend and I went together. Our guide, Hemant, helped us check in at the hotel quickly and arranged SIM cards for our phones. I’ve been to Delhi many times before, but always just passing through. This time, I was finally able to see the city with its magnificent buildings and experience the unforgettable magic of the temples. Hemant has a wonderful sense of humor 😁 we felt very comfortable and safe with him! Thank you for such a wonderful day in Delhi!!! 🙏🏼🤗
Response from the operator: Thank you — this review made our whole team smile. Hemant will be delighted. The SIM cards and the quick hotel check-in are not on any itinerary; he simply does these things because someone who has just landed should not have to worry about them. And we are especially glad that after so many trips of just passing through, you finally got to see what Delhi actually is. Next time, let us show you Agra and the Taj Mahal — it is an easy day trip from Delhi.

A day of cultural immersion
The tour guide was kind, patient and answered my constant questions. He even took me to the real markets as opposed to the one normally on the tour
Response from the operator: Thank you for this review — it made our whole team smile. Questions are the best part of the day for our guides. It means you are genuinely curious about Delhi, not just ticking monuments off a list. And yes, we would much rather take you to the markets where Delhi actually shops than to the ones set up for tour groups. Being able to change the plan like that is the whole point of a private tour. If you ever come back, we would love to show you Agra and the Taj Mahal as well.

Real india
Everything smooth and well managed by the company highly recommend
Response from the operator: "Real India" is exactly what we hope every traveller takes away, so thank you for those words. We are glad the day ran smoothly from pickup to drop-off, and we really appreciate the recommendation — it makes a big difference to a small team like ours. If you return, we would love to show you Agra and the Taj Mahal too.

Exciting tour of the Red Fort and Old Delhi
Very good tour with a well-informed guide. The pickup worked very well. An exciting experience that we can recommend without reservation.
Response from the operator: Vielen Dank für Ihre tolle Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass Ihnen die Tour durch das Rote Fort und Alt-Delhi gefallen hat und die Abholung reibungslos geklappt hat. Wir hoffen, Sie bald wieder in Indien begrüßen zu dürfen – vielleicht beim Taj Mahal in Agra! Herzliche Grüße, Hemant – Indiventure Travellers

Day in Delhi
I had a really great day with Hemant, he is super funny and we talked laught a lot. But he also told me a lot about the history from Dehli and a lot about the religions and buildings.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this lovely review! We're glad you enjoyed the laughs as much as the history. Sharing Delhi's stories, religions and architecture is what we love most. It was a pleasure showing you around. If you're ever back in India, the Taj Mahal in Agra is waiting for you! Warm regards, Hemant – Indiventure Travellers

Why this scores 56
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Old & New Delhi Half or Full Day Tour with Licensed Guide: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New Delhi.
How much does Private Old & New Delhi Half or Full Day Tour with Licensed Guide cost?
+
Prices start at ₹1,100 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 & New Delhi Half or Full Day Tour with Licensed Guide 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 & New Delhi Half or Full Day Tour with Licensed Guide worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 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 Private Old & New Delhi Half or Full Day Tour with Licensed Guide?
+
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 & New Delhi Half or Full Day Tour with Licensed Guide 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 & New Delhi Half or Full Day Tour with Licensed Guide?
+
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 & New Delhi Half or Full Day Tour with Licensed Guide 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.

Does Private Old & New Delhi Half or Full Day Tour with Licensed Guide include hotel pickup?
+
