The Masjid-i Jahān-Numā, commonly known as the Jama Masjid of Delhi, is one of the largest mosques in India. It was built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan between 1644 and 1656 at a cost of 1 million rupees, and was inaugurated by an Imam from Bukhara, present-day Uzbekistan

Duration: 45 minutes

Stop At: Chandni Chowk, New Delhi 110006 India

In the heart of Old Delhi, Chandni Chowk is a busy shopping area with markets full of spices, dried fruit, silver jewelry and vivid saris, while the narrow side streets are crowded with tiny shops selling essential oils, stationery and traditional Indian sweets.

Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Gali Paranthe Wali, New Delhi 110006 India

Gali Paranthe Wali or Paranthe wali Gali is the name of a narrow street in the Chandni Chowk area of Delhi, India, noted for its series of shops selling paratha, an Indian flatbread

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Khari Baoli, India

Khari Baoli is a street in Delhi, India known for its wholesale grocery and Asia's largest wholesale spice market selling all kinds of spices, nuts, herbs and food products like rice and tea.

Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Naughara, M64J+5CJ, Gali Mata Wali, Kinari Bazar, Katra Shah N Shah, Chandni Chowk, Delhi, 110006, India

The name Naughara literally translates to nine (nau) homes (ghar), though one conflicting source argues for nine pots (ghara) of water kept out for thirsty travellers. Whatever the origin, Naughara remains one of the most charming galis of Shahjahanbad, more so because the quiet gated neighbourhood is entered through the bustling market street of Kinaari (trimmings and decorations) Bazaar. At the end of the lane is the white-marble clad entrance to the c. 19th century Jain Swetamber Mandir, where bursts of colour are provided by the exotic glass work and brilliant paintings

Duration: 25 minutes

Stop At: Dariba Kalan, 1660, Kinari Bazar Rd, Clock Market, Chatta Pratap, Chandni Chowk, Delhi, 110006, India

It derives its name from the Persian Dur-e be-baha, which translates as "unparalleled pearl", while suffix Kalan means big. There was also a smaller street near by, known as Dariba Khurd or Chhota Dariba, both Khurd and Chhota meaning "small"; it is now known as Kinari Bazaar.This is in reference to its history as a popular market for precious stones and gold and silver jewelry, especially under the reign of the 17th-century Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. The street witnessed the bloody massacre of Delhi in March 1739, ordered by the Persian invader Nadir Shah, when hundreds of innocent civilians and soldiers were killed and the gold shops were looted.

It was five of us and Tariq was wonderful. Very polite, nice driving, accommodating and he stayed longer. Also, he took us to great places to purchase spices, clothes and drove us to a nice restaurant at the end.

Walking through Old Delhi is certainly amazing, hustle and bustle, so much to buy, food, dresses, shoes, everything! Spice Market smells amazing, tuk tuks, motorbikes, and people squeezing into the tiny alleyways. This is an experience we will certainly remember!

Just had to write a review about our amazing day out on the tour of Old Delhi with Tariq. From the get go he was really friendly and talkative, giving us all the information on the sites and places we visited on the tour, alongside making our group of 3 girls feel super safe walking around old Delhi for the day. We couldn’t have had the experience we did without him, he took us to streets, shops, religious sites and food stalls that we never would have known to go to. He went above and beyond for our trip, even taking many photos of us throughout. I would recommend this to everyone!

I had a fantastic time in the tour with Tariq and honestly don’t know how we could have explored old Delhi without him. We were taken to three religious sites, ate amazing food, explored the spice market and small alleys. Tariq was generous, funny, and receptive to our interests of what we wanted to see. I would HIGHLY recommend!!
