Delhi is a bustling metropolis, which successfully combines in its folds the ancient with modern. Its strategic location was the prime reasons why successive dynasties chose it as their seat of power. In fact, more mythological cities are believed to be here, like the city of Indraprastha from the Hindu epic Mahabharata, founded around 5000 BC. Numerous monuments were built over several centuries by different rulers like Qutub-ud-din Aibek, Alauddin Khilji, Tughlaks, Humayun & Shah Jahan, who built the Walled City Shah Jahanabad. Later in first half of 20th century much of New Delhi was planned by Sir Edwin Lutyens, who laid out a grandiose central administrative area as a testament to British rule in India. The division in walled city & New Delhi also marks the division in life styles.

Rajasthan Holiday

13-Mar-2024

Before we left the States, we planned our tours with Offbeat India Tours. They took the time to understand what we were interested in and set up tours for us in Delhi and Jaipur. They even sorted out our transportation between cities. We had a specific request to visit stores selling authentic crafts without charging inflated prices to tourists, and they did a great job finding the right places for us. The guides were fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and always ready to help. And let me tell you, having skilled drivers in India is a big deal, especially if you've never been there before. Our main contact, Mr. Prakash, was a lifesaver. He provided us with a wealth of information and assistance beyond just organizing the tours. To say they made our trip unforgettable is an understatement. I can't recommend them highly enough.
