Begin your full-day tour of India's capital city with a journey into the historic heart of Old Delhi. Your adventure will start with a hotel pickup, followed by a visit to the magnificent Red Fort, a World Heritage site that was built by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan - the same emperor who commissioned the Taj Mahal.
From there, your tour will take you on a rickshaw ride through the bustling shopping district of Chandni Chowk, where you can witness the vibrant street life and perhaps even indulge in some shopping. The ride will culminate at the Jama Masjid, the largest mosque in India and a stunning example of Mughal architecture dating back to the 17th century.
After a delicious local lunch, your tour will continue into the modern section of the city, New Delhi. You'll visit the towering Qutub Minar, the world's tallest brick minaret, and then proceed to the Tomb of the Mughal Emperor Humayun, another World Heritage site that's a testament to India's rich history.
Next on the itinerary is the iconic India Gate, a war memorial dedicated to the Indian soldiers who lost their lives in World War I. Your final stop will be at the Lotus Temple, an architectural masterpiece designed to resemble a blooming lotus flower, where you can soak up the peaceful atmosphere and admire the stunning structure.
As your tour comes to a close, you'll pass by the Presidential House and the Parliament Buildings before being driven back to your hotel, with memories of a day spent discovering the very best of Delhi's heritage, culture, and beauty.
