Rickshaw tours

Cast your peepers on them rickshaws here Spacious, cushioned seats, seat belts, first-aid kits and uniformed porters Why, we&rsquod take these rickshaws just to believe they existed. Jokes apart, the idea just fits. The walled city of Shahjahanabad has a charm that has to be simply felt, and there is really no better way to experience it than to sway along&mdashnot too fast, not too slow&mdashin a rickety (or not) rick, taking in the colours of Chandni Chowk, the narrow market galis, the mosques and temples that pepper the area, stopping now and then to visit a monument or snack on stuffed parathas or kulfi or jalebis. What&rsquos more, you get to visit a 150-year-old haveli with its original Mughal architecture. Besides, how else could you boast of riding in a Pedicab numbered 003

Old Delhi Rickshaw Tours are organised by When in India tours (from Rs 1,800 when inindia.com). They offer several packages but you might want to take the catch-all Shah Jahan tour (Rs 2,500/ 150&ndash180 mins).
