Great, very interesting tour with Jared. The temple of Akshardham and Javed’s excellent account of the Indian gods (there are few, 30,000 in all) were particularly impressive. We had a great conversation about Indian culture, cuisine and even politics.

spent one day in Delhi (long transfer), found this tour on the site, turned to Ali- author tours, were very pleased: a beautiful tour in a comfortable car in air conditioning, a Russian-speaking guide, interesting locations, looked really city of contrasts, very friendly attitude Helped with airport transfers, cheaper than at the airport, my best recommendations

Thank you so much to Team Ali! Very prompt support, fresh comfortable car, water without restrictions. Special thanks to guide Sanjeev!!! A very kind man, told so much about his hometown, about the culture of his people, about traditions and customs, did not even hesitate to answer not very convenient questions!!! A very contrasting tour begins with the narrow streets of the old city, which are not quite used to our view, and flowed smoothly into the new Delhi, with its beautiful gardens, temples and other attractions. Children 8 and 11 years old had a hard time in this heat, so we weren't turned away and dropped them off at a hotel, and we continued to explore this beautiful green city! Thank you so much again!!!

We were picked up in an air-conditioned car directly from the hotel, which was important in such heat. We were taken to all the most iconic sights of Delhi, we really enjoyed it! We are tired but happy. Thank you!

You should definitely see Delhi with a guide, since he knows how to best organize the route, what to see, how to see. Plus this is a tour by car. You can't see Delhi on foot.

Interesting tour of the Indian Capital. It's hot for a Russian in Delhi in June, but an air-conditioned car saved him.
Благодарим вас за прекрасные слова.
Huge thanks to the Russian-speaking guide Kuldip! Met at the airport, greeted in Russian!!😲 I went on to show you a lot of interesting places, all the things that could be done given my arrival time. Heeded my pleas. For example, we took a couple of subway stops and took a little knock-knock. These were my requests, there was no such thing in the plan, and the tail was followed by an air-conditioned car with my stuff😁 Thank you, Kuldip!🙏 Great many thanks to Kuldeep, who was my guide! Kuldeep is a Russianspeaking guide, so he met me at the airport and greeted in Russian!!😲 Then he showed many interesting places, everything that could be done, taking into account the time of my arrival. He fulfilled my requests. For example, we took a couple of stations by metro and had a short ride on a tuk-tuk. These were my requests, they had not been on the plan. My luggage was in a car with AC, that was tailing us every step of the way:) Thank you, Kuldeep!🙏
Добрый день! Мы вам благодарны за то что вы нашли свободное время чтобы с нами поделиться свои впечатления от экскурсии и очень рады тому что вам понравилось с нашей командой! Будем ждать вас снова в невероятной Индии!
