Step inside with Street Tours.
Experience the pulsating heartbeat of Old Delhi with Street Tours as shown on Tripadvisor, industry leaders of personalised single, couple and small group expeditions through India's wildly frenetic and insanely fascinating capital city. It all starts in Old Delhi, a must-see destination.
Founded as Shahjahanabad in 1639 when Mughal emperor Shah Jahan moved the capital from Agra, Street Tours offers a safe, slow-paced and professionally guided thrill ride — walking, talking, sharing, rickshaw-riding through the hustle bustle, maze madness, labyrinth lanes of Chandni Chowk, Delhi's busiest street market.
The three-plus hour tour of Old Delhi commences with a visit to a very famous temple before a hop-on hop-off environmentally friendly bicycle rickshaw meander through the streets and alleys where everyday life is on full view.
Visit Asia's largest spice market with hassle-free shopping opportunities, take some chai sipping and rooftop respite before lunch.

For more than 60 years, the street artists and performers of India's north had lived in a slum area near Shadipur station in west Delhi. It was known as Kathputli Colony and was home to some 2800 families of magicians, snake charmers, acrobats, singers, dancers, henna artists, jugglers — and much more!
Kathputli was the slum that inspired author Salman Rushdie to include it in his celebrated novel, Midnight's Children. "Kathputli" in the Hindi language means "puppet"...
In late 2017, the worst nightmares of Kathputli's residents became a reality when the whole area was demolished for the reconstruction of new homes. Some residents were forced into homelessness.
Street Tours was a supporter of these colourful and immensely talented families in their former neighbourhood and are very proud to continue the tradition by inviting tourists to be guided to the residential streets and modest homes of many street performers — who will be only too happy to put on a show for you!
