Activities in Delhi

An Old Delhi Food Walk is a guided culinary expedition through the gullies of Chandni Chowk — sampling chaat, paranthas, kebabs, jalebi and rabri from stalls that have operated for generations. Guides navigate the narrow lanes, providing historical context alongside each bite.

A self-guided culinary trail through the lanes of Chandni Chowk, sampling street foods that have been perfected over generations — from crispy jalebis at century-old shops to the legendary parathas of Paranthe Wali Gali.

A cycle-rickshaw ride through Chandni Chowk is the quintessential Old Delhi experience. The pedal-powered vehicle weaves through a sensory storm of spice markets, jewellery lanes, wholesale fabric bazaars and street-food stalls, giving passengers a front-row seat to one of the world's most chaotic and fascinating streetscapes.

An early-morning yoga session in Lodi Gardens is a quintessentially Delhi experience. Against a backdrop of 15th-century tombs and the songs of koels and parakeets, instructors lead groups through asanas on the dewy lawns as the city slowly wakes up.

A self-guided or organized heritage walk along the Yamuna River ghats north of Old Delhi, passing cremation grounds, ancient temples, and the forgotten riverfront of Mughal Shahjahanabad.
