Best Time to Visit

October to March is the sweet spot. The weather is pleasant (15-25°C), perfect for sightseeing. Avoid April to June when temperatures hit 40°C+, and July-September's monsoon makes the streets slushy. If you're on a budget, November and February have fewer tourists.

Travel Tips
1Use the Delhi Metro — it's cheap, fast, and air-conditioned. Get a tourist card for unlimited rides.
2Beware of touts at major monuments; they'll overcharge for tickets. Buy official tickets online to skip lines.
3Drink only bottled water and eat at busy stalls — high turnover means fresh food.
4Dress modestly when visiting religious sites; carry a scarf to cover your head.
5Negotiate auto-rickshaw fares or use app-based cabs like Uber/Ola to avoid scams.
6Keep your phone and wallet secure in crowded areas like Chandni Chowk.
7Start early (9 AM) to beat crowds and heat at popular spots.
8Try the local sweet 'jalebi' at Old Delhi's famous shops — worth the calories.

FAQs

How much does a Delhi trip cost?
A 2-day budget trip costs ₹3,000-₹5,000 including budget hotels, food, and local transport. Mid-range with better hotels and guided tours runs ₹8,000-₹12,000. Entry fees for monuments add up — Red Fort ₹50, Qutub Minar ₹40, and Humayun's Tomb ₹40 for Indians.
What is the typical group size for these trips?
Most group tours keep it small, 10-20 people, so you get personal attention. If you're solo, you can join a group or go DIY — Delhi is easy to navigate alone.
Is Delhi safe for young travelers, especially women?
Delhi has a reputation, but it's generally safe if you're cautious. Avoid isolated areas at night, use reputed cabs, and stay in central neighborhoods like Paharganj or Karol Bagh. Many hostels have female-only dorms. Always share your location with friends.
What's included in a typical Delhi trip package?
Most packages include accommodation, daily breakfast, local transport (AC coach or metro), and a guide for sightseeing. They usually exclude entry fees, lunch/dinner, and personal expenses. Check the itinerary for shopping stops — some tours push commission-based shops.
How many days are enough for Delhi?
For a quick visit, 2-3 days covers the highlights: Old Delhi, New Delhi, and a few monuments. Add an extra day for day trips to Agra (Taj Mahal) or Jaipur. This collection includes 1-3 day options.
What is the difficulty level of these trips?
Easy to moderate. You'll walk a lot — expect 5-8 km per day. Some sites like Qutub Minar have stairs, but no strenuous trekking. Suitable for all fitness levels.
When is the best time to visit Delhi?
October to March is ideal. The weather is cool and dry, perfect for sightseeing. Avoid summer (April-June) and monsoon (July-September) as extreme heat and rain can ruin plans.
