Our walking tour explores monuments of the Pre-Shah Jahan period with a visit to Kalan Masjid and the Tomb of Turkman Shah. Taking in the labrynth of lanes and narrow allyways also allows the knowledgable guide to point out significant havelis once owned by influencial people of the time, such as the home of of Chunna Mal. From the colourful spice markets to the famous Jama Masjid, from old educational instituations to century old churches, this walk provides a well rounded and far reaching insight into Old Delhi’s turbulant and exciting history. It’s important to note that all the walks can be customised to suit your interests and part of the fascinating journey can be enjoyed in a traiditional rickshaw.
