Cultural & Heritage tour - Old Dehli - Kanika was the perfect guide - knowledgeable, chatty (just enough) and reassuring (India can be daunting). The tour itself was the perfect length and was also the ideal mix of cultural and historic. It also provided some much-needed conversation (especially when you’re traveling alone) as well as local insights.
