We will gather and start our Old Delhi cycling tour from MCD parking, Asaf Ali Road and then, spend about 3 – 4 hours, roaming and exploring Shahjahanabad (Old Delhi). Strict guidelines, safety instructions and a brief about the route are provided by us in the beginning. Then, we will start the expedition after feeding the cows at Gaushala. We will then move for pigeon feeding and from there to Lal Qila. Thereafter, we will be heading towards the Sis Ganj Sahib Gurudwara via Chandni Chowk, where we will explore the gurudwara and get to know about the history. An incredible experience to serve in the grand kitchen at the Gurudwara is beyond any description.
Later, we will head towards one of the world’s narrowest lanes in Nai Sarak. From here, we will proceed towards the Spice Market, where we will chill out for some time, click some photographs and have some tea. This is followed by a visit to Mia Ghalib Sahab ki Haveli who was one of the greatest Urdu poets of all time. After this, we will travel to Jama Masjid and then navigate through some narrow lanes, Kulchas, and Chowks of Old Delhi.

After breakfast, we will head straight towards MCD parking, handover the cycles and conclude our Old Delhi cycling tour by IHPL on a happy note.
In the morning our representative will pick you from your Delhi hotel and then with a proficient guide you will cycle to Lal Qila. Lal Qila/Red Fort is a historic fort in the city of Delhi in India.
