About
Puraani Dilli (Old Delhi), the busiest of all places, is quite serene in the mornings. The quietness of the place, however, speaks volumes. With lonely lanes and few people around, a walk across this area will take you back to the black and white era.
The beauty of an early walk relies upon savouring the delectable dishes available only in the mornings. We take you on a journey is this maze to try an unimaginable variety of dishes from all walks and corners of India.
We try the local delicacies and experience the market opening up in the morning with crowd increasing by the second. Visit café’s and vendors that have been serving some amazing dishes from decades altogether pleasing the locals. We make sure to shape the tour according to your dietary restrictions so that you have the best experience.
SpinMonkey food tour and our food experts promise to tingle your taste buds.

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- sharonrH4870SQ0 contributionsUnique view of the cityWe loved our tour with TJ! We woke up bright and early and started with the old wall at sunrise. We learned about spices, architecture, and visited the inside of a Sikh temple. We finished with a breakfast, sampling dishes from around the country. Great overview of Delhi with an expert guide :)Written March 13, 2024
- imraanm20190 contributionsOld City Bicycle RideWe rode as a family with kids. The ride & tour were fantastic, enjoyable & safe. It's an early morning ride & the route is manageable. Mostly flat road in Old Delhi. We were apprehensive about riding in the chaos of Old Delhi but were guided safely through the roads & alley ways of the Old City by Taranjit who has a passion for the city & makes the ride through the city also very informative. The organisation was great & prompt. Spin Monkey also made special arrangements for our kids 10 & 12 to ride along, so we knew they were safe. A great way to explore Delhi Old City. The breakfast stop was also a nice touch & Taranjit knows the loc foods. Would definitely recommend - a great experience.Written January 7, 2024
- 943amrinders0 contributionsMarvelous expeditionIt was an amazing tour and explored the tiniest roads of old Delhi. Spin Monkey shared the detailed information of Delhi’s heritage places and buildings. Thumbs up to Spin Monkey 👍Written October 7, 2023
- vatsalav20160 contributionsFirst incredible morning in Old DelhiSimply loved cycling in Old Delhi on our first morning in Delhi, we started quite early and Anchit was very helpful since the beginning of the tour. Saw the really side of Old Delhi while the sun was still rising, we had an incredible experience despite of heat in Delhi. Would highly recommend this tour to everybody coming to Delhi as the experience was very raw and real. Thanks Anchit and Irshad for the lovely experienceWritten July 4, 2023
- yariellac0 contributionsIncredible cycling city tour for real adventure travellersBy far my favourite tour from my travels through India! You literally cycle the city through dawn (less scary than it sounds), and sample fresh bread, navigate the spice and morning flower markets, drink masala chai and get a crash course in Delhi history. Absolutely brilliant! One not to miss in Delhi.Written March 28, 2020
- W7440NSsamantham0 contributionsMust do activity!The thought of doing a bike tour in Delhi sounds so daunting...but this experience wasn't at all! It was so much fun, and felt safe throughout! The stops throughout and the history told, were things I would not of seen/learnt had I of been on my own going around the city. Definitely a must do activity when in Delhi!Written March 18, 2020
- thewanderingquinn0 contributionsReally recommend!This is such a fun and unique way to see old Delhi, an area that is hard to see on your own. It sounds like a crazy idea but the guys have planned the route well and in the morning the traffic isn’t too bad. You learn a lot and taste some good food too!Written March 17, 2020
- Naujokaite0 contributionsCycling tourIt’s was incredible tour with amazing guides :) 🙏👌best part of this day in Delhi. thank you! Best wishes for you guys!😊Written March 8, 2020
- dianne2490 contributionsFun private bike ride for 2 - gives glimpse of delhi lifeFun and interesting early morning ride. We are 50+ competent occasional recreational riders. Saw authentic bread makers, hard working Sikh volunteers feeding the masses, architecture, history, pigeon racing all in old Delhi. Would highly recommend. Guide was fun and informative and kept us engaged with his questions.Written February 29, 2020
- 633nickij0 contributionsReally interesting insight into Old DelhiWe had a really wonderful experience with Anchit. We went to some very special and interesting places that we would never have found or known about on our own. We got close to people's daily activities and Anchit explained these to us so we could understand what was going on. He really made the city come alive in a way that would not have happened without this tour. We were especially moved by our visit to the Sikh temple and witnessing the amazing charitable activity going on there. Thank you so much Anchit. If we ever return to Delhi we will come back for another tour to learn more about your incredible diverse city.Written February 28, 2020
- jhauser220 contributionsa perfect and amazing day on the bike in Old Delhi with a top guide👍Perfect Tour in Old Delhi, amazing impression and very informative with a great tour guide, a must to do ...and chaos on the street 😳Written February 6, 2020
- AnnaliseAbroad0 contributionsHighly recommended!An excellent tour, I've been on a lot and this totally stands out from the crowd! It's definitely not the crappy overview kind of tour where the host has a cheesy script and half the details aren't true - Anchit is the opposite of that! It was like having a very knowledgeable friend showing you around. He went out of his way to make it very personalized, and even made some impromptu stops along the way when he spotted something neat. He made an effort to get to know us and what we would be interested in so he could highlight accordingly. Also, he goes out of his way to avoid places where tourists will be swarming, and he knows many layers of detail about the history and importance of each place. Anchit was so conscientious about arriving early and being prepared, and extremely helpful with everything. He even looked up which exit door I should take from the metro station! And he was very safety conscious when guiding us along the streets as the traffic started getting busy toward the end of our tour. He was like a human shield to us! Anchit is a very nice person - humble and accommodating. This is not the kind of tour where you feel pressured to buy things at shops -in fact, there's no shopping on the tour at all! Just really unique info and experiences where you can truly see behind the scenes of Old Delhi.Written February 3, 2020
- SammyD13070 contributionsA great way to see Old DelhiWhat an unique experience!!! The guides at Spin Monkey were friendly and professional along with giving a great explanation of the city as we went along. We watched the city come to life as the sun rose stopping at the bakery, a Sikh temple, the community kitchen and the Old Spice Market. The rooftop Masala Chai tea stop was probably my favourite thing! Special mention to Gaurav for keeping us safe whilst cycling the crazy busy streets! A must do whilst in Delhi!Written January 20, 2020
- LassiComeHome0 contributionsCrazy Good Fun!I highly recommend these guys - one of the best tours I did on a recent trip to India - and I did quite a few. Anchit & team were awesome! It was an early start (6:15 am) but worth it as you see Old Delhi awaken and by the time you finish (10:30 am) the place is bustling with life. I was at first a bit wary of cycling in Old Delhi traffic but it was fine and really enjoyed it - just wish I had a louder bell to compete with those beeping horns all around!! Honestly, though - it is very safe - nothing to worry about.Written December 10, 2019
- zackymacky0 contributionsUnique perspective of the city from a bicycle in the early morningVery interesting tour. The tour guide was engaging and patient. We saw the crumbling remains of the Old Delhi town wall, a bread bakery tucked back into an alley, a Sikh temple, and the chili pepper district. We finished with breakfast at a sweets shop. The guide did a great job of explaining history and pointing out interesting facts at each of the locations. We took the morning bicycle tour, which started early but ended up being a great time of day for this type of tour. We could see the city coming to life as we progressed through the morning, and the traffic wasn't nearly as crazy as it would be later in the day. The bicycling wasn't very rigorous, so suitable for most anyone. We're very happy we did this tour – it was a highlight of our trip!Written December 1, 2019

Actually, we went to India to celebrate my best friend's jubilee birthday. Thus, about 2 months before the trip I was thinking how to organize the day to be memorable. Contacted several people and companies in Delhi asking for suggestions. And suddenly I found SpinMonkey on internet! Anchit Doegar was so creative, great and patience while I was changing my mind several times per day. As we are not very good at cycling,- decided just to walk in the Old Delhi in the morning with a guide. We visited the most interesting places of the old city leading by two the most professional Indian guides. The birthday was really a wonderful day, full of new experiences and surprises!!! Everything was done extremely glamorous, culturally, informatively. And Anchit helped us a lot after the tour, as we had to leave the city for Agra in the evening. He even organized a taxi for us as it was not easy for a foreigner to order a car on internet.
My friend was incredibly happy about her birthday.
If you ever come to Delhi, I strongly advise to contact SpinMonkeys for sightseeing tour in the city. The company has so many suggestions for each client how to make the day mostly memorable. No doubt !!!

The guys who run SpinMonkey are the perfect balance of fun and professional.
Could not have asked for a better company to walk you safely through the manic streets of Old Delhi.
So much more than a food tour, it's sightseeing, culture, history all while feeling safe and having an absolute blast!
Do yourself a favour and get yourself on one of their tours.
