I highly recommend this Top Notch Tour! Asim and A-Star Tours created a fantastic and memorable experience of my time in Delhi. Punctual with pick-up and drop off at my hotel, very clean and comfortable car for the travel around the city. Being a female solo traveler, I felt safe and taken care of the whole time. Asim has a great sense of humor, and his English is great. He makes the tour very fun! The knowledge that he and Manu imparted about Qutub Minar, Humayan's Tomb, The Red Fort and India Gate made me feel like I was truly being educated about the significant history of Delhi. I learned a lot. I enjoyed my rick sha ride through Old Delhi as it made me feel part of the everyday life of the old city, and I saw things at ground level. I wanted to buy some textiles, brass scultures, and other gifts while there and Asim and his team catered to my every whim. I was very pleased with every aspect of this tour, and it was excellent value for the price.”

Everything from the pickup to the hotel drop off of the tour was very well arranged and organised by this company.The tour operator Asim A was very reachable all the time via WhatsApp. Our driver picked us up from the hotel and took us to Old Delhi where we met our tour guide Deepak. He was knowledgeable and funny. He also ensured I had a great experience.Had rickshaw ride around chandni chowk after visiting Jama Mosque,it was a great experience.Lunch was good and delicious, it was nice restaurant serving authentic Indian food. Afterwards visited Humayun’s ,Lotus Temple and Qutub Minar. Before trip ends, guide Deepak made ensure we visited all sites(Including Old and New Delhi) listed in our itinerary. I would definitely recommend this tour for first time travellers to Delhi.”

My driver Ajay was very prompt throughout the day. He would appear within a few minutes of my guide (Karni) calling for pickup from the various places we visited, and had fresh bottles of water ready and waiting. Karni ensured that I had plenty of time for photos and was full of really great information for each of the sites we travelled to. I payed for the “all inclusive” package and was pleased with the overall service. Karni took care of getting tickets, when needed, and always took me through an express line for entry. Lunch at Suribachi restaurant was delicious and more than I could eat: also included as part of my tour package. Our Rikshaw driver did a great job getting us through the narrow, crowded streets of Old Delhi- unfortunately the steel canopy supports on the Rikshaw aren’t tall enough for those of us that are taller than 6 feet so i had to bend my neck down/forward for most of the ride to reduce the number of time i hit my head ;) All in All, this tour was great and didn’t disappoint so I highly recommend it. Unfortunately my wife was unable to attend the tour due to illness the morning of the tour. After completing the tour, I requested a partial refund of her ticket and it was processed within minutes of my request! Great tour company with EXCELLENT staff !”

We had an 8 hour layover in Delhi and decided at the last minute to do some sightseeing. I booked A Star Tours the day before and was really impressed with the prompt service - they contacted me immediately via whatsapp and arranged to customize the normal 9 hour tour to for into a 5 hour window. Asim was an excellent host throughout - he was very flexible and incredibly professional, even as we were delayed at immigration. We had an excellent tour guide (Manu) who was very knowledgeable and articulate. If we did not have the benefit of his insights we would have missed much of the richness in the history of the sights we visited. I would highly recommend these guys. They managed our time brilliantly and in the end it felt like we'd got the best use out of our short time in Delhi. Thanks to the team at A Star tours.”

Excellent trip and fabulous guides. Would not hesitate to recommend. My group included my elderly grandparents and Asim and colleagues were fantastic with them, walking slowly etc. We went on circa 8 trips whilst in India and this was by far the best! Personable and knowledgeable guides who made us Brits feel completely comfortable throughout Old and New Delhi - just book this trip now!”

A day before trip, Asim contacted me via Whatsapp and passed me the details of our driver and car.There, my questions were answered immediately.My driver Ajay, a very polite guy picked up me on time from my hotel in New Delhi. My tour guide was Manu, and he did a fantastic job of customizing this tour to make sure I had see everything I wanted to.Not forget to taste indian food, it would made your day.We started up form Old Delhi and ended up our tour in New Delhi, i was amazed what the city has to offer.

Our guide, Manu, and driver did a wonderful job of hitting and explaining the highlights of Old New Delhi and then New Delhi. While fast paced, there was adequate time at each major stop to see, learn and ask questions. A very remarkable history with ancient sites. Manu was great. It is a long day, but we'll worth it. One fascinating note for us was the absence of women in old Delhi and our guide explained that the culture and religion dictates that women stay inside their homes. We felt safe and welcome everywhere.”

We thoroughly enjoyed our private tour with Yag as our guide. Yag was born and raised in Delhi, and it shows. He provided insights that we would not have otherwise gotten as outsiders. By the end of the tour, we were friends. Highlights of the tour include Jama Masjid, Qutub Minar, Humayun's Tomb, and the Red Fort. If you are looking for a comprehensive look into Old and New Delhi, this is the tour for you.”

Couldn't be better! Our driver met us at the Taj Palace Hotel promptly at the scheduled time. The driver took us to meet our guide, Ankush. It was clear within 5 minutes that Ankush clearly had a grasp of the sites of Delhi and that he was a professional. Our driver was just as pleasant and the air-conditioned vehicle a MUST during Delhi in June! was clean and cold. Ankush showed us the sites in Delhi in a planned and logical fashion. Our tour started at 9am and completed by 3p we skipped lunch. We have traveled all over Europe and had used Viator/Trip Advisor for many many tours. I can honestly say that with Ankush, the all-important backstory for the sites was throughly provided and making the tour feel complete. Anyone can simply point out sites and obvious architecture. Knowing and understanding the backstory for each site requires thorough knowledge of the subject. With Ankush this tour was a joy! Well-recommended!! A”
