Nizamuddin Bicycle Tour

Deeply entrenched in history and heritage this lively neighbourhood takes its name from the great Delhi Sufi saint Khwaja Nizamuddin Aulia, whose last remains are interred at the much-venerated dargah, a huge pilgrim hub. In proximity to the saint’s dargah lie buried his beloved disciple and Sufi poet Amir Khusrau, as well as Jehanara Begum, daughter of the Mughal Emperor Shahjehan. This beautifully curated tour of this historic area is a stimulating and ambitious introduction to the many lives of “Dilli” re-lived in true DBC style. The Nizamuddin tour leads you through a city of mystics, saints, poets, rebels, forgotten Kings, English ladies, refugee colonies and nameless tombs – all buried in the giddying contrast offered by the upscale South Delhi neighbourhoods.

  • A fabulous way on-ground approach to explore this historic neighbourhood in Delhi
  • Great history and culture   connection with this fabulous city
  • Nostalgia and photo opportunities

Starting in the over-700-year-old settlement of Nizamuddin, this tour hacks its way through the 21st-century concrete jungle and flashy lights of South Delhi to show you a city alive in unimaginable fragments.

The South Delhi Cycle Tour is 15 km long and includes tea and breakfast in the lush Lodhi Gardens. It is offered in the mornings (all through the year) and afternoons (from October till April only). DelhiByCycle is proud to have partnered with the Nizamuddin settlement-based NGO – Hope Project, for this tour. Hope supports the local community of Nizamuddin in health care and education.
