The walks

Seven walks. Three eras. One city under many names.

Each walk is a single monument or precinct, sized for half-day teams of 10–30. Booked together, they map the full arc of Delhi — from the Slave Dynasty to the British Raj.

Sultanate Delhi

1192 — 1526

Where Delhi met Islam. The city's first stone empires — Slave, Khilji, Tughlaq, Sayyid, Lodi — built and abandoned in three centuries.

Qutub Complex

You'll see
  • The Iron Pillar of Delhi — 1,700 years old, refuses to rust
  • Tomb of Alauddin Khilji & the Alai Darwaza
  • Quwwat-ul-Islam — north India's oldest mosque
  • Tomb of Iltutmish — the first true tomb in India

Where Delhi met Islam. The Iron Pillar that refuses to rust, Alauddin's tomb, and the mosque built from twenty-seven dismantled temples.

Lodi Gardens

You'll see
  • Tomb of Sikandar Lodi (1517) — the last great sultan's resting place
  • Bara Gumbad & its mosque — proto-Mughal architecture
  • Sheesh Gumbad — the "glass dome" with tilework still visible
  • Tomb of Muhammad Shah Sayyid — five sultans buried in a single park

An empire's last gasp in stone. Five sultans buried in a 90-acre garden the British built around — and India inherited.

Mughal Delhi

1526 — 1857

The blueprint, the apex, and the end of the empire that defined Delhi. From Humayun's first garden-tomb to Bahadur Shah Zafar's last trial.

Humayun's Tomb & Sher Mandal

You'll see
  • Sher Mandal at Purana Qila — the library staircase where Humayun fell to his death
  • Humayun's cenotaph — the first Mughal garden-tomb
  • Isa Khan's octagonal tomb — predates the main tomb by 20 years
  • Tomb of Khan-i-Khanan (Rahim) — the Mughal poet
  • Barber's Tomb & Nila Gumbad — the blue dome

The story Humayun couldn't escape — the library steps he fell down, and the garden-tomb his widow built to house him. The blueprint for the Taj Mahal, fifty years before it existed.

  • Diwan-i-Aam, Rang Mahal, Khas Mahal
  • Moti Masjid — the pearl mosque built by Aurangzeb
  • Naubat Khana & the Mumtaz Mahal museum

Lutyens Delhi

1911 — 1931

The capital the British planned in 1911 — and lost in 1947. Three kilometres of imperial geometry that India inherited and made its own.

Lutyens Delhi — the Imperial Capital

You'll see
  • India Gate & the National War Memorial (2019)
  • Rashtrapati Bhavan — Lutyens' Viceroy's House, exterior & Mughal Gardens (in season)
  • Parliament House & the new Sansad Bhavan (2023)
  • North Block & South Block — the secretariats of the Raj
  • Connaught Place — Lutyens' Georgian retail crescent, still trading
  • Jaipur House — now the National Gallery of Modern Art

The capital the British planned in 1911 — and lost seventeen years after it formally opened. Walk the geometric grid of Edwin Lutyens and Herbert Baker, and the buildings India re-inhabited overnight in 1947.
