I had the pleasure of taking the Old Delhi walking tour with Deepak. He came to my hotel near the airport and we took the subway to avoid traffic. My flight was leaving that evening and I couldn't take chances on missing it. He assured me we would have time. Deepak tailored the tour to my interests and was knowledgeable on the history and culture of the sights. He was professional as well as personable and it was a totally enjoyable tour. I highly recommend Deepak Bhatt and his tour company.

On my first week-end in Delhi, I took a walking tour in New Delhi with Deepak. It was my first time in Old Delhi and this tour was perfect to get an overall experience of the old part of the city. It was an amazing tour, not only was the tour extremely interesting and rich in information but also Deepak was a very kind and nice guide, who knew the history of his city very well. I would definetly recommand this tour to anyone who wishes to explore Old Delhi with some extra information and tips you won’t find in any of the tourist guides! Bohot Danyavad Deepak !
