Delhi isn’t just the setting for many famous Bollywood films—in real life, it’s been a seat of power in India for more than a millennium. Its rich history gives you much to explore, while its love for everything new gives it a surprisingly modern feeling. Whether you're looking for monuments, malls or Mandirs, you can expect the finest when you book one of our Delhi packages.
Delhi holiday packages aren’t complete without a tour of the city’s monuments. Explore the Red Fort, the Qutb Minar complex and Humayun's Tomb, the latter of which is more of a nice summer residence, which you might not know from the name. There are also newer landmarks to be discovered, like the Akshardham Temple and Baha'i place of worship. Most of these places can be reached on Delhi's efficient metro system. However, if you're looking to explore the areas outside the city, Wotif has tons of car hire options in Delhi. Drive past stately attractions like the India Gate and Rashtrapati Bhavan on Rajpath, or “King’s Way,” which has more cool government buildings than palaces these days.
Delhi holidays should always allow enough time to take advantage of the city’s many choices for shopping and dining. From street haggling at bazaars to shopping at high-end designer boutiques, there's something that will excite every kind of shopper. The handicrafts of Dilli haat, hand-embroidered cloth of Ajmal Khan Road and inexpensive fashion wear of Sarojini Nagar market compete amiably with high-end designer showrooms at world-famous malls. A word to the wise, though—if you’re after a good bargain, the street markets are where you should spend most of your time. You may even be able haggle vendors down to half the quoted price, if you're skilled enough.
Every kind of world cuisine is represented in Delhi. There's French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese food, and all these restaurants attract both locals and foreign visitors. However, in spite of the popularity of these international outlets, it's local food that rules the market of Delhi. Street food, in particular, has always been Delhi's forte. It's almost impossible to avoid biting into a crisp samosa or a juicy jalebi while shopping—for a special treat, stop by Khan Market and let your taste buds run wild.
Once you’ve had your fill of the freshest Indian food around, it’s time to fill up your glass (with adult beverages!). From cultural events to nightclubbing, you'll be able to find something fun to do at night in Delhi wherever your tastes may lay. However, don't forget that Delhi's pubs and bars have a midnight curfew. So you'll want to either start your night early or venture to suburbs like Noida and Gurgaon for a later night.
If you want to spice up your next getaway, the flavours of fascinating Delhi await. With your Delhi holiday package booked, you’re sure to have an exciting holiday in the Land of the Maharajahs. Hungry for even more adventure? Head to the capital of Maharashtra, India and get a Mumbai holiday underway. It’s all possible with Wotif!
