Top 15 Delhi Night Tours

1.Guided Evening Tour of Delhi City

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 233 reviews · 3 hours · from $13Our pick

Ride in a private air-conditioned car from your Delhi hotel to landmark views of Rashtrapati Bhavan and India Gate, Lodi Gardens, Safdarjung’s Tomb, and, when timing allows, Agrasen Ki Baoli. A guide leads the sightseeing in English, Spanish, or French. Asif, Shamin, Ravi, and other guides have led past tours, but your assigned guide may differ.

“Our guide Asif took us on a night time tour of the city and we got to see the India gate at night, the Lodi Gardens and the Safdarjang tomb, which as a night tour I would also recommend- it was quiet and beautiful. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the history and its links to other similar architecture. We were here on the first of Jan so the traffic was very bad. However he planned things so that we could get the most out of the evening without spending to much time in traffic. Highly recommend a different view of Deli”
