Excellent experience - Fara gave us an amazing tour in Delhi, showing us its secrets and its complex magic! We had the pleasure to meet his family and have dinner with them. The exchange between cultures was great. My family and myself are very grateful for meeting wonderful people and knowing a side of Delhi that not many tourists have the opportunity to meet

Amazing Dinner with Wonderful Family - The dinner at Farmaz’s house was absolutely delicious! The family was very kind and fun to talk to, the mother is a fenomenal cook. We had an amazing experience with Farmaz at his home, we had a variety of delicious dishes from Delhi and Kabul, everything was fresh and tasty. I highly recommend this experience. Farmaz is the best helper and coordinator any tourist could ask for. Thank you Faramaz!!
