Walking Tours
Hotels may be able to arrange walking tours on request. For a two-hour walking tour of Old Delhi with an expert, try Old Delhi Walks (tel: (011) 2464 1304); advance bookings required. Alternatively, self-guided walking tours of a number of areas are possible. Starting at Old Delhi's Jain Temple at the eastern end of Chandni Chowk, by the Red Fort, a walk through this area weaves through the alleyways and takes in the area's finest temples and most colourful markets. Meanwhile, it takes about an hour and a half to tour the main mosques and mansions of Old Delhi, which covers the stretch from the Jama Masjid to Ajmeri Gate.

Bus Tours
Delhi Tourism & Transport Development Corporation (tel: (011) 2331 5322; website: http://delhitourism.nic.in) operates sightseeing tours in air-conditioned coaches, covering New and Old Delhi.

All tickets must be purchased in advance at the booking office at N-36, Connaught Place.
