It’s designed to give travelers a taste of India’s rich traditions, friendly hospitality, and lively everyday life—especially perfect for those who love immersive, hands-on experiences.
What really stands out is the friendly guidance from Nidhi and Roopak, a seasoned couple with over 26 years of hosting visitors.

The tour’s emphasis on authenticity, safety, and interaction means even solo female travelers can feel comfortable exploring Delhi through their lens.
