Experience Delhi, not simply as a sightseeing tour BUT experience the city through our eyes on the whole with its past and present, with its beliefs and its culture that co-exist. This is off the beaten / eaten tourist path,which is refreshing and authentic.If you can only do one thing in Delhi... LET THIS BE IT. You will get a completely different look of India through the eyes of the local family living in the same area. You will be personally leaded around the neighborhood's winding streets, sharing the neighborhood's rich history, delicious food & culture. After the walk, you will visit and enjoy complimentary home made meal at one of the last standing beautiful Haveli (Old- Family Living- Private Mansion- in the Old City) of Delhi. The Masterji Kee Haveli(Old- Family Living- Private Mansion- in the Old City) has a terrace from where, there are views of Old Delhi in all its higgledy-piggledy chaos. « less

The day we had was great! I saw a different side of Delhi that I would never have imagined. Great tour led by Dhruv! The food that His wife cooked for us was amazing. The whole day was full of culture, life and food. Stick to the tours led by Dhruv and you won't be disappointed.

We met up with Druhv the first day that we were in Delhi. It was by far the best decision that we made the whole trip!

We had a nice afternoon with Anju and learned a lot about Old Delhi and its people. We were also very happy to meet Dhruv at the very end of our tour, who is dynamic and interesting. The food was delicious. We were a bit intimidated by Anju's picture taking during the tour, but it's a great way to document... More

I took the full day tour with Anju and can't express enough what a wonderful experience it was. As a single female traveler to India I got to experience many things I would never have seen on my own.

Last week (end of April 2013) we spent with Dhruv half a day for private tour in the heart of Old Delhi. It was amazing experience with a lot of in-sightfull observations. It was not a regular tour thus you feel and touch old city through the Dhruv's eyes, who lives here for many years. He is not only a... More

We came across this tour in trip advisor and we were so glad. Walking around old Delhi with Dhruv, meeting shop keepers, pigeon tamers, flower sellers; visiting temples and markets; tasting local delicacies and listening to him explain about lifestyle, customs and architecture was the highlight of our visit to India.

The half day private tour spent with Dhruv in the Old Delhi Bazaar and his lovely haveli is a truly enjoyable experience.
