Tour Program
Your guide and driver will pick you up from your hotel in a comfortable, air-conditioned car.
The tour is designed to start early, making the most of your day and ensuring you avoid crowds at the hidden gems.
Time: 1 Hour
Begin your day at Hauz Khas Village, a trendy area known for its unique blend of history and modernity. Stroll through the Hauz Khas Complex, which includes a 13th-century mosque, a tomb of a Mughal noble, and a picturesque water tank.
You’ll also explore Deer Park, a peaceful green space where you can spot local wildlife like deer, rabbits, and various birds, making it a hidden oasis in the heart of the city.
Time: 45 Minutes
Head to Siri Fort, a historic fort built by Sultan Ala-ud-din Khilji in the 14th century. Less crowded than the Red Fort, Siri Fort is a fascinating example of medieval Islamic architecture. Explore the remnants of this fortification and the quiet surroundings, with beautiful views of the city from the elevated areas.
Time: 45 Minutes
Visit Lodhi Gardens, a peaceful park that houses the tombs of the Lodhi rulers (15th century). It’s a perfect spot for those looking for history, tranquility, and lush greenery. The park is known for its historical tombs, archways, and its popularity among locals for picnics and morning walks.
Time: 45 Minutes
Next, head to Agrasen ki Baoli, a step-well tucked away amidst the hustle and bustle of Connaught Place. This ancient step-well (built during the Mahabharata era) features a unique architecture of hundreds of steps leading down to a water reservoir. The site is peaceful and less crowded, offering an intriguing glimpse into Delhi’s engineering marvels from the past.
Time: 1 Hour
For lunch, stop at a hidden gem restaurant in Mehrauli or Nizamuddin offering authentic regional cuisine. Try local specialties like biryani, dal makhani, parathas, or kebabs, and enjoy the unique ambiance away from the usual tourist spots.
Time: 45 Minutes
After lunch, head to Safdarjung’s Tomb, a lesser-visited but beautifully preserved tomb built in the mid-1700s. It is a striking example of Mughal architecture and provides a peaceful escape. The tomb is surrounded by a large garden and reflects the grandeur of Mughal emperors.
Time: 45 Minutes
Explore the Dargah of Hazrat Nizamuddin, a Sufi shrine that offers a mystical experience. Located in a historic part of Delhi, the dargah is famous for its Sufi music (qawwali) sessions, especially in the evening, but it remains serene and spiritual during the daytime. The area is full of local charm, and you can explore small, vibrant alleys lined with traditional shops selling perfumes and handmade crafts.
Time: 45 Minutes
Head to Dilli Haat or another local market that focuses on handmade crafts, textiles, and traditional Indian arts. Unlike the more commercial markets, these spots offer authentic Indian handicrafts, local artwork, and fabrics. It’s a great place to pick up unique souvenirs or simply explore the local artisan community.
Time: 1 Hour
After a day full of exploring the hidden gems of Delhi, your driver will take you back to your hotel or a preferred location. If you have extra time before your departure, your guide can suggest additional activities or provide assistance for your onward journey.
