Delhi Shopping Tour with Local Guide Duration: 4.5 Hours Price: INR 1200
Delhi Shopping Tour – Shopping for Authentic Kashmiri Pashmina Shawls
Shopping in Delhi is exciting, but the city’s markets can be crowded, confusing and difficult to navigate on your own. You may not know which market suits your interests, whether a price is fair, or how to recognise good quality.
My Delhi Shopping Tour gives you a private local companion who knows where to go and how to make the experience enjoyable.
Tell me what you want to buy, how much time you have and where you are staying. I will help create a shopping route around your interests, whether you are looking for Indian clothes, jewellery, handicrafts, spices, souvenirs, textiles, shawls or something else.
We may explore the historic bazaars of Old Delhi and Chandni Chowk, browse Janpath or Lajpat Nagar, visit Dilli Haat for handicrafts, or choose a modern shopping area.
I can also help you compare quality, understand local prices and bargain where appropriate.
You don’t just go shopping in Delhi—you shop Delhi with a local who knows the city.
A Private Delhi Shopping Experience

This is not a fixed shopping itinerary or a visit to shops chosen by someone else.
Before the tour, we discuss what you are interested in buying, your budget, your preferred shopping style and how much walking you enjoy. I then suggest the markets that make the most sense for you.
You may want to focus on traditional Indian clothing, jewellery, spices, handicrafts, souvenirs or budget fashion. You may also prefer to combine shopping with Old Delhi sightseeing, street food or a visit to a historic landmark. If sightseeing is also on your list, you can combine your shopping experience with a private Delhi Tour Guide experience.
The route is flexible, and the experience is designed around you.
