Delhi Tour de Redfort, Humayun Tomb e Qutb Minar (UNESCO Sights)

Our tour guide, Manu, was absolutely amazing!!!! He answered all of our questions, he was so knowledgeable about the sights that we saw and culture in general. He went above and beyond to make sure that we were comfortable, cared for and enjoying the experience. If you have a free day in Delhi, I cannot recommend this tour enough!!!!

I want to make the highest recommendation for booking this day tour in New Dehli with The Wanderers Tour company (Day Tour Dehli), whom I found through Viator. Their guide and driver were both terrific, but best of all the company is very flexible and accommodating in crafting a tour for you that meets your wishes. And the price for a private tour was very good as well. I flew to New Dehli from the US, arriving at 1:20 am. This was a day before my regular guided tour of northern India officially started. I had two objectives – I didn’t want to sit in my lovely hotel all day, and also I wanted to find a great day tour of the city that covered some tourist attractions that would not be covered by my regular guided tour. I chose the day tour with The Wanderers Tour company (Day Tour Dehli) of the Red Fort, Humayun Tomb & Qutb Minar, all UNESCO sites. One problem was that my regular tour was also going to Qutb Minar the next day. The second problem was that I really wanted also to visit the famous “Friday Mosque” or Jama Masjud from the 1500s, which was in walking distance from the Red Fort. The Red Fort was listed as the last place we would visit. I contacted the company and asked if I could leave the tour at the end to walk to the Friday Mosque and then take an Uber back to the hotel. (In retrospect, not a great idea given New Dehli traffic). The company was so accommodating – it turned out this was a *private* tour and not a small group tour, and so they rearranged the tour to drop Qutb Minar (also a wonderful place) and add the Friday Mosque instead, plus they added a very interesting “step well” near my hotel. I was allowed to pick the start time (10 am), they were exactly on time, and we wrapped up around 4:30 pm. I managed to see four wonderful places, and then could swim and rest at my hotel later that day to get ready for my regular tour the next day. So I VERY MUCH RECOMMEND this tour (the sites visited can be modified as you wish) and the company, guide, and driver. Really a wonderful introduction to four important places in New Dehli.

Asim and Sunil were excellent and I would recommend their tour to anyone interested in seeing the major sights of New Delhi. They went above and beyond in taking us to extra locations and were extremely knowledgeable on the history of this beautiful city!

We had an incredible experience exploring New Delhi thanks to our amazing guide Asim and our skilled driver Sunil. Sunil’s driving was nothing short of remarkable—navigating the busy streets of Delhi with ease, confidence, and complete professionalism. He made every transition between sites smooth and comfortable, allowing us to truly enjoy the journey without worry. Asim, our guide, was a wealth of knowledge. At each site, he brought history to life with engaging stories and deep insight. From Red Fort to the Lotus Temple, he not only shared historical context but also pointed out subtle details we would have easily missed on our own. His explanation of the Iron Pillar’s metallurgy and resistance to rust was fascinating, and his deep dive into the architecture and symbolism of Humayun’s Tomb helped us appreciate the Mughal craftsmanship on a whole new level. Asim’s passion for history and culture, paired with Sunil’s calm and expert driving, made this tour a standout part of our trip. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience New Delhi in a meaningful and memorable way!
