The capital of empires

Delhi travel guide

Delhi is where most Golden Triangle journeys begin — a layered capital where Mughal forts, colonial avenues and chaotic, wonderful bazaars sit side by side. One full day with a born-and-raised guide is enough to see the icons without the overwhelm; two if you want to slow down and eat your way through Old Delhi.

Delhi travel FAQ

How many days do you need in Delhi?

One full day covers the highlights of both Old and New Delhi at a comfortable pace. Add a second day if you want to dig into food, markets, museums or day trips.

What is the best time to visit Delhi?

October to March, when days are sunny and cool. We run tours year-round and shift to early-morning starts during the warmer months.

Is it easy to get from Delhi to Agra and Jaipur?

Yes. Agra is a 3–3.5-hour drive on the Yamuna Expressway and Jaipur is about 5–6 hours — both linked by our private cars, or fast trains we can arrange.
