Essential Old Delhi Free Tour

Step into the soul of Delhi with a guided walk through Old Delhi (Shahjahanabad), founded by Emperor Shah Jahan in the 17th century. This tour is a journey through living history—where Mughal grandeur meets bustling bazaars, sacred shrines, and mouthwatering street food. We begin at the magnificent Jama Masjid, one of India’s largest mosques, with its sweeping courtyard and Mughal-era minarets offering panoramic views of the old city.

Along the way, we discover hidden gems such as:

• Dariba Kalan – the lane of silversmiths.
• Khari Baoli – Asia’s largest spice market, a feast for the senses.
• Paranthe Wali Gali – famous for its stuffed breads and traditional snacks. Religious Harmony – visit sites like Jain temples, Sikh gurdwaras, and Sufi shrines, all standing within walking distance.


No Old Delhi experience is complete without food tasting—from crispy jalebis and spicy chaats to rich Mughlai kebabs and fragrant biryanis. Every bite tells the story of the city’s culinary traditions.

The tour concludes at the imposing Red Fort (Lal Qila), the seat of Mughal power, where we reflect on how this vibrant quarter still keeps alive the spirit of Shahjahanabad.
