If you are one of those westerners that has become addicted to the many walking tours in Europe, like we have, then you should love this. We started early in the morning, 05:40, with our brilliant guide Leena. She walked us through the residential areas to experience daily Indian traditions, then, through the markets. Leena very politely asked if we wanted to sample some local food and beverages along the route, which we definitely did, so the tour becomes a foody tour if you want it too. We finished by experiencing a local breakfast with Leena. This is not a historical trip round the city, this is more personal and gives a special insight in to the everyday lives of local people. The tour we’ve most enjoyed in all 3 of our trips to India as you won’t find it in any guide book.

I have been a lover of Indian food for 50 years and, on my first trip to India, my children gave me a private market-and-cooking-and-eating excursion with Priya as a birthday present. It was perfect. Priya was right on time and, after a visit to buy vegetables at a nearby famers market, we "went home to cook." I ground some masalas, made coconut chutney on a traditional stone grinder, made my own dosas, etc. It was a fantastic experience. Priya knows how to teach beginners, but she was also wonderful at adapting to my higher level of knowledge. One of my best memories of India!
