This food tour is a food walk and city tour in one compact package which is a great thing to do if you have 5-6 hours to spare. The guests discover the culinary delights of Old Delhi and New Delhi from some of the most famous food joints of the city. Some of them have been in business for more than 100 years. In addition to food, the guests also get the chance to see a number of hidden corners of the city which normal tourists don’t really know about. The itinerary and food items included can be tailored to suit the dietary requirements of the guests.

During the food walk, guests visit 8-10 food joints and taste 18-19 different dishes including one full fledged meal at the end. None of the food items included are too spicy but can be made if so desired. In Old Delhi we walk for short distances and use cycle rickshaws for longer distances. Once the guests are finished with Old Delhi, we get in to the car to explore New Delhi and it’s food. During the tour, we also visit a few attractions of the city like the biggest spice market in city, a charitable kitchen feeding thousands of people every day and a few others.

An outstanding food tour of Delhi. Do not miss this. - This was an incredible experience. Aditya was a chef and introduced us to an outstanding tasting of many authentic Indian dishes. From food stalls to sidewalk restaurants, we were tasting all that Delhi had to offer. Chef Aditya included interesting details about the history of Delhi. We enjoyed Tuk Tuk rides as well as taxi excursions throughout old Delhi and then New Delhi. Do not miss this food tour.

Great food experience in Delhi! - This was the highlight of our visit to Delhi! They were kind enough to let us reschedule as we both arrived feeling a little under the weather. Āditya was a great guide ! Very knowledgeable and adapted the tour for our preferences and what we wanted to see. The food was unique and delicious, definitely not anything we would have found on our own. If you're wondering, this tour is absolutely worth it!

Old Delhi food tour - Excellent tour and guide! Highly recommend! The food was awesome, had stories behind it and the vendors were outstanding. Good for even the weak stomached. This was the best way to see the market in Old Delhi for us. Can’t say enough good things about our guide Āditya. Clear, knowledgeable, friendly and paced the tour perfectly for us

Take this tour!! Best experience in Delhi! - I can’t say enough wonderful things about this experience! Not only did I try amazing foods that I might have been weary to try on my own for fear of food poisoning, I also was given deep insight into the history and culture of Delhi. The tour was very well curated, and offered a variety of types of foods and experiences, including visiting the kitchens of a Sikh temple! Aditiya, a chef himself, Was an amazing guide! Not only did he provide information about all the foods I tried, he also happily answered my many questions about Hinduism, Ayurvedic medicine, and Indian culture at large. If you are in Delhi and enjoy food and culture, this tour is a MUST!

Excellent! - We really enjoyed this tour! We got to try so many different foods and there was so much to eat that we couldn’t finish it all because we were too full. Aditya Shahi was a wonderful guide, friendly and knowledgeable. Our favorite had to be the Kulfi- ice cream filled in the fruit skin.
