“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”

Great way to see the golden triangle cities in a short amount of time.”
