Vegetarian food tour

What a delicious tour.of Old Delhi! It was the very first thing I did in India and the tour, and especially Deepak, left me with such great appreciation for the sights and smells and tastes. I loved walking through the markets and seeing the beautiful fabrics and spices. I also enjoyed taking the metro and the rickshaw with confidence that I wouldn't get lost! I highly recommend this tour

100% recommended

An experience of 10, ideal to enter the world of streetfood in India being foreign, as it took us to places totally safe and hygienic. 13 people and 0 Delhi belly!!! Something that initially scared us and made us not dare try any street food. Hopefully repeat!! I've fallen in love with panipuris

Very good dining experience.

All great, took us to local street sites but looked safe and hassle-free for the Traveler. Very friendly and attentive at all times. Thanks to the tour we discovered places where we probably would not have eaten and everything at a very good price. Highly recommended.

Excellent experience

Dining tour in English with Deepak. He is very friendly, he took us to try dishes that we had not seen until now and totally safe for the stomach of foreigners, and also the places were very cheap, we rolled for less than 200 rupees.

Amazing gastronomic experience

Great experience with Mr Deepak!! After 14 days in North India we're able to try new indian street food such as: Chole Bhature, Chaat, Samosa and Ghevar, Shwarma... Mr Deepak was extremely patient and helpful despite the monsoon and being such a large group (12 people). An amazing experience to share with friend when in Delhi, if it was not for Mr Deepak we have never discover the food and the places. Strongly recomendable! Super experiencia con el Sr Deepak! Despues de 14 dias en India Norte pudimos probar comida callejero que no habiamos visto en ningun lugar: Chole Bhature, Chaat, Samosa and Ghevar, Shwarma... El Sr Deepak fue super paciente y de gran ayuda a pesar del monzon y acabar siendo un gran grupo de 12 personas. Si ni hubiera sido por la experiencia, nunca hubiesemos pasado por los sitios que nos llevó ni sabido pedir la comida que probamos. Suuuper recomendable!

An incredible must do street food tour whilst in Delhi!

Deepak was an incredible tour guide who took us to great street food spots we would not have discovered ourselves. He was extremely knowledgable teaching us about the dishes, culture and life in India. Would highly recommend!

Great personalized tour

Deepak was an excellent guide, from the moment he met us to the end of the tour. We expected to be taken to local places to try the food and we did! It was amazing and we totally felt safe trying these things as we trusted Deepak to choose the best things for us. But we got more, he was so knowledgeable regarding the history, buildings, religion, etc of India and we learnt so much from him. Deepak is a natural guide, articulate, witty and very charming. You cannot go wrong booking with him...

Amazing Food, Tour, and Guide

If you're having second thoughts about booking this tour then let this be your sign to book it! Deepak was very knowledgable, funny, and made my tour one of the smoothest that I had in India. As a solo female traveler in India I'll admit I was a bit scared to be traveling alone, but Deepak made sure I was safe and at ease. Thank you Deepak!

Great Old Delhi experience

I had a great pleasure to experience the vibrant Old Delhi with Deepak the tour guide. Deepak was very friendly, well organised and knowledgeable about the area we visited. The local food was very tasty but mostly the people and the place itself are unforgettable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone travelling alone, couples or small groups. Maciej
