A government-approved English-speaking guide leads the visit to key sites including Humayun's Tomb, Qutub Minar, the President House (Rashtrapati Bhavan), India Gate, Parliament House, Lotus Temple, Red Fort, Jama Masjid, and other landmarks.

Next is a 30-minute exploration of Chandni Chowk, one of Delhi's oldest and busiest streets, featuring Khari Baoli - the largest spice market in Asia - where a rickshaw ride is included to cover the area. A full hour is spent at Khari Baoli itself, known for its wide variety of herbs, spices, dried fruits, and nuts. The tour continues to the Red Fort, constructed in 1648 as the Mughal emperor’s residence for two centuries. Humayun's Tomb follows, located in Nizamuddin East, notable as the first garden tomb in India and a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993. The Lotus Temple, built in 1986 from white marble and closed on Mondays, is visited next with a 45-minute stop to see its distinctive flower-petal design and surrounding pools. Later stops include the India Gate, a 42-meter-high war memorial completed in 1931, Rashtrapati Bhavan - the President’s official residence - and Parliament House, the bicameral legislative body. The final visit is Qutub Minar, a 73-meter brick minaret built in 1193 and also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where the tour spends about an hour. The tour includes hotel pickup and drop-off, a private vehicle with air-conditioning, a professional English-speaking guide, entrance fees if the all-inclusive option is chosen, and a rickshaw ride in Chandni Chowk. Still and video camera fees, meals, drinks, and tips are not included. The itinerary is flexible and can be customized to fit the schedule.
