31 Dec 2011 It was a great day overall, there was only me booked on the tour so it was like having a personal guide. He was informative and friendly and it covered the major sights in Old and New Delhi. Yes you could just do it yourself but I thought the tour was worthwhile to have the history and stories explained and also I may have been nervous about wandering round some of the streets of Old Delhi on my own! A full lunch was included so maybe they have taken note of the previous travellers feedback.

17 Nov 2011 Overall, a great tour that hit the major sites in the city. It actually ended up being a private tour, since nobody else booked for that day, so it was like having a personal guide. The guide even added a couple of extra stops to the tour since we had some extra time, which we thought was quite nice of him since he was working on a holiday. We appreciated the time given at some sites to wander on our own for a bit, rather than always having to follow a guide. Our one complaint about the tour was the restaurant chosen for lunch. It was unbelievably overpriced (something like $3-4 for plain rice) and clearly a tourist trap; there were no locals eating there. We did not expect this from a tour company that attempts to be different than the others by bringing you closer to the local culture. There would certainly be more reasonable places to go for lunch to give you more of a local experience. If you do this tour, I would recommend insisting on going somewhere different for lunch.
