Itinerary
Your day begins with a comfortable pick‑up from your hotel at the time you choose. With your guide by your side, you’ll head straight into the heart of Old Delhi to explore its living history. First, step inside the mighty Red Fort, once the residence of the Mughal emperors for nearly two centuries. Its red sandstone walls and grand halls still echo with stories of India’s royal past. From there, continue to Jama Masjid, one of the largest mosques in India, where the vast courtyards and soaring minarets create a breathtaking atmosphere.
Wandering through the narrow lanes of Old Delhi, you’ll discover heritage homes, bustling bazaars, and everyday scenes of local life. Your guide will share fascinating tales of the city’s culture and traditions as you walk. Pause at Gurudwara Sis Ganj Sahib, a historic Sikh temple, where you can witness the spirit of community service in the bustling kitchen. Then hop onto a cycle rickshaw for a lively ride to Khari Baoli, Asia’s largest spice market. Here, the air is filled with the aroma of countless spices, and your guide will explain their role in Indian cooking and Ayurveda.
Before returning, you’ll visit Raj Ghat, the serene memorial dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi. Set amidst peaceful gardens, it’s a place of reflection and remembrance, offering a quiet contrast to the vibrant streets you’ve just explored. Finally, your driver will drop you back at your hotel, bringing your journey through Old Delhi’s history, spirituality, and everyday life to a close.

This was a terrific tour that enabled you to visit a beautiful landmark as well as a few other fun and interesting stops along the way.
This was a great experience with a knowledgeable guide. All ran very smoothly from.pick up to drop off. Highly recommend
Was a wonderful experience seeing and hearing the history of Old Dehli. Particularly the Red Fort. Deepanshu was a delight to be around, a fountain of knowledge and made the experience seemless.
Excellent India experience, the bicycle rickshaw Was a blast Our tour guide is knowledgeable and friendly Vehicle and admission price was fair

Our tour was with Pushpendra; we covered all of the sites indicated in the tour (Red Fort, Jama Masjid, Spice Market, Rickshaw ride). We were never contacted prior to the tour until I texted the tour group on WhatsApp about 20m before it was supposed to begin (whereupon the tour group sent me the guide's number and it turned out he was already en route). Generally our guide was difficult to understand (partly due to his thick accent, but he also seemed not to understand several of our questions, or seemed annoyed that we were asking, or else he just answered a different question). On more than one occasion he seemed not to know an answer to a question (which is fine; nobody expects a guide to know everything) but instead made up an answer we knew to be incorrect (which is not appropriate). He typically walked several feet ahead of us when he wasn't attempting to explain something and generally seemed disinterested and bored. He was also a bit pushy about tips for people we interacted with on the tour as well as for himself. Perhaps he was having a bad day, but I'm reviewing the tour we got, not the one we might have given benefit of the doubt. In the future or if I were making a recommendation to a friend I'd go with a different tour group. Our driver was Santosh, who was on time and drove safely and efficiently; no complaints about him.

Dear Guest, Greetings from Go City Adventures! We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you but at the last moment, Red Fort was closed for the general public as The President of Uganda was about to come.
