Old Delhi vs. New Delhi – What’s the Difference?

Old Delhi, once the capital of the Mughal Empire, is a dense, historic hub with bustling bazaars, ancient mosques, and narrow alleyways.

New Delhi, planned by the British, is more spacious and formal, featuring wide boulevards, colonial buildings, and important government institutions.

Together, they make up two distinct personalities of the same city — and this tour lets you discover both in style.
