Dilli Darshan- a day long tour of New Delhi

Tour Code: LT 01
Tour Cost: US$ 60 per person
Tour Date: Monday, 06 November 2006

Delhi is an intricate weave of history, culture and dreams growing at a breathless pace, beyond the scattered citadels of erstwhile dynasties and far beyond the ken of the colonial and latter-day town planners. The capital of a young nation which is as old as time...

New Delhi is a world away from its older counterpart. Yet, Old Delhi has a richer and more colourful character, stemming from its organic growth over several centuries and its still somewhat medieval ambience.

Tour of New Delhi starts with visiting the Humayun's Tomb & The Qutab Minar. Drive along the Rajpath towards the residence of the President of the Republic of India – the Rashtrapathi Bhawan flanked by the houses of Parliament and the Government Secretariat buildings.
