Delhi Tour
Pick up from your hotel lobby at 9:00 am and take you on a private Delhi city tour.
Visit the grand site of Red Fort built by Shah Jahan in 1648. Mughals used the Delhi Red Fort as their residence, and it was the most influential political centre. The Red Fort houses museums that display royal items and portraits, and it has beautiful gardens.
Admire the commemorative tower of the Qutab Minar, built by Allauddin Khilji in the 13th century. Look closely as it towers up 5 levels, each clearly distinguished by a projecting balcony.
Head to Humayun's Tomb on Mathura Road. Built-in the mid-16th century by Haji Begum, wife of the second Mughal Emperor, the tomb displays Mughal's characteristics of high arches and double domes and is considered the forerunner of the Taj Mahal.
Witness the flower-like Lotus Temple, also known as the Bahai Temple, completed in 1986 and notable for its extraordinary 27 free-standing marble-clad "petals."
Enjoy some of Delhi's unbelievable shopping with assistance from your guide, and find the best places to bargain for jewellery, handicrafts, art, fabrics, clothing and souvenirs. Get suggestions on some of the best places to eat along the way. Return to your hotel.
