“Unforgettable Delhi Adventure with Sid and Vishal”
We had an amazing 3-day tour in Delhi with Sid and his driver Vishal. My wife and I loved it! Sid and Vishal were very attentive and listened to all our wishes. They made sure we felt comfortable and happy. They connected us with local people, which was so nice. They took us to local restaurants and showed us real Indian food – it was delicious! With their little red Suzuki – our own 'Little Red Corvette' of Delhi – they drove us all around the city. The traffic in Delhi is crazy, but Vishal cruised through it so safely, we never felt scared. They always cared about our safety. One special moment was when they took us to a Langar. We saw such a strong sense of community there – everyone eating together, helping each other, no matter who they were. It was so touching. Sid also showed us the deep faith of the people in Delhi. We felt their belief in something bigger, and it made us respect the city even more. Thanks to them, we got a great impression of the people in Delhi. We learned to love the energy, youth, and heart of the city. Both Sid and Vishal were super friendly and showed us the real life of Delhi, not just tourist places. We were so impressed. If we come back to Delhi, we will definitely ride with them again. Thank you, Sid and Vishal, for an unforgettable trip in your speedy little "Red Corvette".
Sid S.
Wow! Your words truly touched our hearts. It was an absolute joy showing you both the real Delhi, beyond just the tourist spots. Your kindness, curiosity, and open-heartedness made this journey even more special for us.Thank you for trusting us with your Delhi adventure. We can't wait to welcome you back for another ride! See you again soon! ️
