I've been to Delhi a few times over 3 trips to India. It is full on India for sure!!! I like the craziness but with India there is an extreme amount of variance of good and bad to experience. I love it India is my favourite place to travel. One tip from western female friends is to always cover your shoulders in public to ease the male stares. Happy Travels
They are not staring you to make you unsafe even you wear anything you will find them staring you because you don't look like us so as we brown people move to Caribbean nation they will stare us to
@@avishek3572 no they were only looking at the woman in the video stop fooling yourself, there’s a reason why India has one of the highest annual rape crimes worldwide
@@brettster6710 😂😂so whom they should look idiot she is only white in all brown so it's natural people will see her... You really need to under human nature... Rape is everywhere In western world they are showing rape in pornography.. India is only country where women is worship as godess..
Hope you doing ok. I went to India many years ago on a yoga retreat with a friend and stayed in New Delhi. The Indian People are amongst the friendliest people in the world bare none. I enjoyed my time there touring the architectural ruins and historical sites. The Food Outstanding. However, India has its problems. There is a great divide between the rich and poor as you branch out into the rural areas. That being said. I urge everyone to go at least once in your lifetime and keep an open mind. You will come away from the experience enlightened. Thank You Rhett and Claire for a wonderful tour. It brings back many fond memories. Sending you lots of love 💖💖💖 from Richmond, Va. Jim, Harriet and Yuki.

Honestly I don’t understand why foreigners are so obsessed with visiting Old Delhi! Even residents of Delhi don’t visit the Old city side. Most foreigners go there to have bad experiences just for the sake of “true India”
Oh My Gaya! You guys were in Haldiram's in Old Delhi. I was there a d had lunch on the second floor in 2019. That veggie thing with pomegranate on top looks DELISH 😋. Thanks for showing that and all the beauty Incredible India 🇮🇳 has to offer and you're just getting started. Look into Bhubaneswar, Orrisa. I was there and it's so different from Delhi.
Yes, Bhubaneswar, rather, Orissa may be a good place to visit. Konark, Ramchandi, Chilka Lake, Gopalpur on Sea are quaint places to go to. I am from Delhi but I prefer Bhubaneswar to live in😀
@@x-man5452 Yes Bhubaneswar is a great place to visit. I was there for two days and it wasn't enough. I'll need two weeks at least to take in the city and its culture in a better way when I return Jai Hind 🇮🇳🙏🏻!

I am from India and Delhi Mumbai are not in my top spots. Visit Tier 2 cities. Definitely visit Ancient temples and Swaminarayan temple. When in India, Go to Lion, Tiger, Rhino, Elephant, Camel Safari and Nature tourism.
What an intro that was guys, absolutely love it! Delhi looks awesome and it’s definitely on my travel bucket list too 🙌 the views from the rooftops, the food, the patterns, the rain, the monument, what a day!
5.11 there are open public urinals in London to it located between Leicester Square and Trafalgar Square and some in Camden market if you want to visit
I went to Delhi couple times and was only a stop over to reach other cities from there. However I never explored the city. Tbh it’s ignorant to say, but I was discouraged by many people and Indian friends to not visit Delhi because it’s not safe for solo female travelers. I regret it a lot that I didn’t give it a chance. I was told the same thing about Varanasi, but regardless I visited and nothing happened and I loved the experience which I call bold and out of this world. I’m going back to India this year and Delhi will be on my list.

@@RhettandClaire Visit South India you'll feel like you are in Europe , Bengaluru City of Karnataka state in South India is called silicon valley of India.
old delhi had the name in the most riches area in india, they're powerful people, when govt try to renovate the whole area they always go in court and take stays.
@@RhettandClaire it's a heritage but the powerful ones are destroying it, it needs renovation, when you arrive to Chandni Chowk, you can see there is newly built street in the middle, only for people pedestrian, which was built 2 years ago it needs more renovation, you should see the video about renovation of new delhi railway station and newly built central vista parliament there are a lot of videos of them on youtube. India is changing but it takes time. Bcoz we spend our money on weapons and defense sector insted of infrastructure. And it's necessary When you have the most peaceful people on the left and crazy monarchs on right. We don't want to end like ukraine and thank to visit India. I hope you will enjoy your journey.
I made it to India and I just want to thank both of you for your videos they helped very much. I got spiked in Delhi, I don’t know how but they gave me speed. I know because I took the stuff for 8 years. I heard they give you speed to dry you out and disorientate you then when you are a mess with dehydration and delirium they take your stuff. Luckily I was experienced with it and knew how to stay safe. Anybody else could be dead now. I underestimated the distance between Delhi and Rishikesh, where I am now. We took a five hour taxi ride from a series of taxi drivers who must have been literal saints sent to help me. 🙏 I got to Rishikesh which is much more relaxed and my homestay manager has been helpful. I can’t believe how much they overcharge and short change but I’m starting to enjoy myself as the jet lag wears off and the comedown ends. 😂😂 Crazy days eh?
@@RhettandClaire no not a restaurant. I left the airport without drawing out some rupees or getting a sim card and used my card to get a metro to the city thinking everything would be cheaper there. I’d watched a million videos about people who approach you but nothing prepares you I think. Someone said they’d take me to an atm and I don’t even think I followed him he followed me. Anyway every atm I got to didn’t work and I was shown to these money changers which I avoided. Long story short I was worried I was going to pass out with thirst and I think they must have offered me a drink and I really had no choice. I went through all the stages of amphetamine use which lasted a few days. Taxi drivers who took me were angels. Rishikesh is great. I’m in the poor end of town rn but I’m moving up to Tapovan colony on Wednesday. None of the bad people got anything and I think I avoided every scam, which isn’t had for my first time. Tapovan has lots of hotels for backpackers and quality eating establishments etc. At the end of the day there are worse things they can do to an ex amphetamine addict than give him speed. I like speed lol but I’ve got more sense than to take it now.
I think Old Delhi is a heritage, some parts of old Delhi get organised, I have visited once in Delhi about a year ago i love how south delhi and other parts of delhi is so quiet and clean and calm...And the old Delhi is so crowded and chaotic with lots of shops. This reminds me that I am in India and its make me feel to my home. Delhi is love 💙
Qutub Minar was originlly Hindu structure. there are defaced idols of hindu deities. also the war scenes of Hindu epic Ramayana can be seen. carvings of deities, saints, human beings are completely prohibited in Islam. they could not even destroy the original Hindu temple properly.
@@RhettandClaire It is a Sun Observatory that has a 25 inch tilt to observe the Dhruva Star (Pole Star) built by King Vikramaditya in 5th Century A.D. On 21st June you can not see any type of shadow from the Minar falling because of that tilt...and around the Stambha (Pillar) there were 27 Hindu + Jain constellations temples.
@@RhettandClaire Hinduism is a way of life. Offerings to the deities is a way of life. One such thing is building structures in honour of the powerful. Plus some ancient temples especially in south have been scientifically built. You enter you feel instantly feel a sense of power. A lightness in head immediately. Many are not accessible to foreigners who are not of the religion. Anyway apart from religion and culture. Enjoy the beauty of Leh. Remoteness. As with diversity in culture and language. Leh has diversity of no horns and sound. Peaceful. So to measure in one yardstick is not possible I guess
Chandni Chawk is part of old Delhi and really it's not a tourist place. It is basically market for cloths, spices that one buys in bulk from wholesale or for someone's need. Unless you r not intended to buy anything from Chandni Chauk or Sadar I won't recommend any tourist going there, it will be definitely chaotic due to business activities. It can not be represented as India. Tourists should visit may be red fort, Delhi Haat, Akshar Dham, Eskon, Bhai, India Gate, Jim corbette wild life sanctuary (200 kms towards hills around Delhi), Suraj kund near Gurugram within national capital region, Noida, Vrindavan, Taj Mahal. There r plethora of interesting, historical and modern places to see around away from chaos.
India has so much things North - East for natural beauty and calmness South for our some the greatest temples and north to know about our history and culture. Well to be honest all of us can agree that south and north east part is more clean and calm in general.
@@AJAYAMBULAGE What is the problem with "one of the cheapest"? In this context cheap isn't derogatory. Services are cheap in India compared to many countries. Many countries are affordable but not cheap.
If you want to see clean, modern, less chaotic places, visit areas in New Delhi NCR like Aerocity, Connaught place, Gurgaon, Noida, etc. if not than stop complaining.
those places have nothing to do with the culture-fact of the matter is that if you're traveling, its logical to go to chandni chowk etc i'm literally from delhi btw
It depends on person mindset that how they view india with the inferior mindset can never enjoy india i would say it's not bad but it's unique persian archetecture but i don't think india is a poor country it's just chaotic like vietnam Thailand but we also have expensive cities too i recommend you to go like Chandigarh Noida hydrabad or south of india north east of india take your time and experience yourself and than judge the country on the base of your experience
Sorry but the info on Qutub Minar is incorrect. It was erected by Indian ruler. But after conquest the muslims destroyed the Hindu idolatory compound and temples around it. The Minar was quite grand so in order to impose their victory they just carved Islamic scriptures on the Minar.
I am an Indian and I don't like cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad and Kolkata at all, yeah they are big and economic hub but I just don't like to tour these cities
So called Qutub Minar is actually a Hindu monument built by Raja Vidhnu Vardhan There are massive Sanskrit inscriptions even now engraved on higher levels of the tower where Mozlems couldn't efface them.
What I don't get is why do all travel vloggers go to Old Delhi/Chandni Chowk area? It's not the representation of Delhi and living in Delhi for about 30 years - I've been there once and didn't enjoy it. I've found better foods in other neighborhoods as well
It’s on every “top 10 things to do in Delhi” list. It’s an interesting area to explore, it’s different, you get to observe daily life and see things you wouldn’t see back home, there are many stores set up for tourists to buy things etc.
Poverty porn😂😂 and adding to negative stereotypes of the country. Nothing else. It is as if there is no poverty or deprivation in their own country. Indians vloggers should visit ghettos in Johannesburg and spend a day just filming there and say ‘ welcome to South Africa’ Oh wait! they can’t do that lest they get mugged or worse murdered for their camera. It’s a crime infested shithole .. ( see how stereotypes work!?) Give us a break!
Being an Indian never visited Taj Mahal. May be I should checkout during Dec holiday period. Hoping it is not crowded at that time. Really clean room and well maintained bathroom at the Lucky hotel.
@@RhettandClaire Hepatitis A& b being the ones you got as a child? I’ve been recommended the Japanese encephalitis & rabies ? As while not sure if it’s necessary Thank you again
I just found your videos.they are super high quality and with awesome editing.and you are experiencing the true india with your local freinds❤️.i am really happy. I am on binge watching spree🔥.awsome work
When I hear this line from western foreigners, which is become almost like a quote that "India is one of the cheepeast country we visited" I wish I can tell them is that we South Asian countries which you westerners call 3rd world country's we made your currency $ stronger . So don't say that repeatedly India is cheep , for us Indians isn't cheap though we love INDIA and always will, but we have to lot hard work and hustle to earn those gandhiji notes. At last i am complaining you guys just try understand as common Indian prospective. you guys are always welcome to in this beautiful land also in Indian culture we say "Atithi Devo Bhava(Guest are like God)" . Happy journey
Oh yes! All vloggers on alighting at Delhi show Pahargunj or at Mumbai direct taxis to Dharavi said to be the largest slum in the world. That's true. White European & US people have never seen poverty and they enjoy seeing the misery of our 3rd world India. I am so glad your future travellers will avoid this country of ours. Wierd, chaotic, strange English accen and a medieval country! Keep it up !!!
We’re from a third world country ourselves, South Africa. We come from a place of poverty and intense crime, our opinions are not coming from a place of privilege and niavety😊
Bro they're from ABD's country. Not European or US. Not all whites are from there. Their accent gives it away as well. Think before you type in showing your dumbness. C'mon bro, we're not Americans 👍
@@RhettandClaire although I get your pov but your choice of showing chaotic & older parts hurt him. India is the most diverse country in the world but some slum tourists intentionally visit these slums chaotic places & damaged India's picture alot & your videos are adding into it. The time you spent showing old Delhi & chaos & sum up modern sides within a minute raise questions although I'm not complaining but trying to explain his concerns. India currently world's 3rd & 5th largest gdp is a fastest developing country so there's bound to be developed & undeveloped sides. Like in Delhi itself if you visit neighborhood like Gurugram & Noida you'll feel you're in another world. Hope you understand. 🙏
@@fta_in623 we did visit Gorgoan and those videos are coming. It’s simply not possible to visit all these places in a matter of 1 day. You have to watch all of the videos to get the whole picture. You can’t judge based on 1.
@@RhettandClaire first of all thank you for the reply & I'm not judging it I was just explaining his POV not mine! Although later I found you're fighting with people asking genuine questions & smiling when anyone says India a dirty country did changed my opinion. It's great you've visited Gurugram I'll wait for that video & I hope you showed proper Cyber City in there & not stray animals & outskirts slums of the city🤞Also try visiting Himalayas if you really enjoy your time because You can't find Himalayas except in Nepal and India so it's unique too not only slums🤧
seriously, you guys just showed most of the old Delhi yeah I know you need to show everything you experiencing but can't you balance it out? we have the great modern infrastructure in Delhi like visiting aerocity gurugram NCR region but every foreigner comes to India and shows videos like this only and makes us feel bad on the world stage... no offense guys waiting for your next vlogs
It looks like they have a Bad company who joined them and take to worst places. Like in the first part of the video. What a place they picked to go with tourist in those narrow stairs. Etc. It's beyond my understanding.
We asked to experience this. We are fully aware that Delhi has many modern wonderful buildings but we don't want to see this, we can see this in our own country and many others around the world. We want to see something unique and new to us. Regardless, if you decide to continue watching our videos then you will see that we do explore the modern areas of Gorgoan, etc. And yes, we are very impressed with the infrastructure there.
Dumb guys ... will you love travel to Nigeria, Kenya slums ?? No, coz you already see lots of it in india ... and that's why indian abroad travel list start with western country ... then why they want to explore new delhi, the city life they were living whole life... for sure they wana explore different which they haven't seen

@@RhettandClaire goeie more,you're most welcome 😊 ❤️, love your beautiful language and your beautiful country. I have friends from the Republic of South Africa and Namibia both. G-d bless you both. Keep safe please. 💞
you guys should really step out of the golden triangle and explore the rest of India. States in the northeast, up north in jammu and Kashmir, Madhya pradesh, Gujrat, Kerela, Karnataka have so much to see. you can stay in India for 6 months and still can't visit it all
love from India, You can also visit south India & Himalayan region of India I feel India have everything like mountains rivers desert volcano, sea beaches, rich wild life & diversity of culture
Sister ... What u r seeing is not 400 yrs old... Its all date back to 1 bce... A city built destroyed & rebuilt...as old as epic mahabharata... City is under construction for atleast 1000 yrs
A beautifully made video, extremely interesting for those of us who haven't braved such a hectic city! A real leap of faith for you both, am glad you were rewarded in return 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
@@RhettandClaire I use wombat as an online name after meeting them at a petting zoo in Australia, I thought they were so cool! It's also because commenting about some conflict zones attracts the wrong kind of attention so have to stay safe. Now I'm getting older I do waddle around like a wombat though! 😄
If u ever come to India, avoid old parts of cities.. In Delhi u can live a posh life with posh locality in areas like Gurugram, south Delhi , Aerocity and Greater Noida. Do view these places on RUclips and then plan ur Itinerary. AVOID old Delhi, even I don't have guts to go there.

@@RhettandClaire It is a Sun Observatory that has a 25 inch tilt to observe the Dhruva Star (Pole Star) built by King Vikramaditya in 5th Century A.D. On 21st June you can not see any type of shadow from the Minar falling because of that tilt...and around the Stambha (Pillar) there were 27 Hindu + Jain constellations temples.
@@RhettandClaire Hinduism is a way of life. Offerings to the deities is a way of life. One such thing is building structures in honour of the powerful.
Plus some ancient temples especially in south have been scientifically built. You enter you feel instantly feel a sense of power. A lightness in head immediately. Many are not accessible to foreigners who are not of the religion.
Anyway apart from religion and culture. Enjoy the beauty of Leh. Remoteness.
As with diversity in culture and language. Leh has diversity of no horns and sound. Peaceful.
So to measure in one yardstick is not possible I guess
This video will be so useful in planning my trip to India, thanks! Can't wait to explore it myself! 🇮🇳✈
Chandni Chawk is part of old Delhi and really it's not a tourist place. It is basically market for cloths, spices that one buys in bulk from wholesale or for someone's need. Unless you r not intended to buy anything from Chandni Chauk or Sadar I won't recommend any tourist going there, it will be definitely chaotic due to business activities. It can not be represented as India. Tourists should visit may be red fort, Delhi Haat, Akshar Dham, Eskon, Bhai, India Gate, Jim corbette wild life sanctuary (200 kms towards hills around Delhi), Suraj kund near Gurugram within national capital region, Noida, Vrindavan, Taj Mahal. There r plethora of interesting, historical and modern places to see around away from chaos.
India has so much things North - East for natural beauty and calmness South for our some the greatest temples and north to know about our history and culture. Well to be honest all of us can agree that south and north east part is more clean and calm in general.
Why don't you visit south Delhi?
INDIA IS NOT (CHEAPEST) COUNTRY IT IS VERY AFFORDABLE COUNTRY 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
They didn’t say cheapest. They said “one of the cheapest that they have visited”.
@@jojo_ranjan word cheap is not appropriate
Affordable is a proper word to use
@@AJAYAMBULAGE What is the problem with "one of the cheapest"? In this context cheap isn't derogatory. Services are cheap in India compared to many countries. Many countries are affordable but not cheap.
@@jojo_ranjan let it be man chill out our thoughts can be different they doesn't need to be right or wrong they just different thoughts let it be
everyone said this place was amazing but it just looks like an over grown city to me... maybe their definition of amazing is different than mine.
If you want to see clean, modern, less chaotic places, visit areas in New Delhi NCR like Aerocity, Connaught place, Gurgaon, Noida, etc. if not than stop complaining.
Did you watch the whole video before commenting this?
@@RhettandClaire No, you did not visit any of the places I mentioned.
those places have nothing to do with the culture-fact of the matter is that if you're traveling, its logical to go to chandni chowk etc
i'm literally from delhi btw
It depends on person mindset that how they view india with the inferior mindset can never enjoy india i would say it's not bad but it's unique persian archetecture but i don't think india is a poor country it's just chaotic like vietnam Thailand but we also have expensive cities too i recommend you to go like Chandigarh Noida hydrabad or south of india north east of india take your time and experience yourself and than judge the country on the base of your experience
Man indias problem is just bad urban planning. Things can get better if government has the will.
Sorry but the info on Qutub Minar is incorrect. It was erected by Indian ruler. But after conquest the muslims destroyed the Hindu idolatory compound and temples around it. The Minar was quite grand so in order to impose their victory they just carved Islamic scriptures on the Minar.
lol hindu never erected anything like minar there similar minar found in afghanistan build by turks jelousy destroy your bhakt mind
Really awesome videos. Which software do you use to edit them and add VFX/ text FX?
I am an Indian and I don't like cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad and Kolkata at all, yeah they are big and economic hub but I just don't like to tour these cities
But why 😂
@@Cashifywala it's very chaotic and overrated. If wanna explore India then there are many underrated places to visit
So called Qutub Minar is actually a Hindu monument built by Raja Vidhnu Vardhan
There are massive Sanskrit inscriptions even now engraved on higher levels of the tower where Mozlems couldn't efface them.
What I don't get is why do all travel vloggers go to Old Delhi/Chandni Chowk area? It's not the representation of Delhi and living in Delhi for about 30 years - I've been there once and didn't enjoy it.
I've found better foods in other neighborhoods as well
It’s on every “top 10 things to do in Delhi” list. It’s an interesting area to explore, it’s different, you get to observe daily life and see things you wouldn’t see back home, there are many stores set up for tourists to buy things etc.
Poverty porn😂😂 and adding to negative stereotypes of the country. Nothing else. It is as if there is no poverty or deprivation in their own country. Indians vloggers should visit ghettos in Johannesburg and spend a day just filming there and say ‘ welcome to South Africa’ Oh wait! they can’t do that lest they get mugged or worse murdered for their camera. It’s a crime infested shithole .. ( see how stereotypes work!?)
Give us a break!
I'm very proud💪wel come to India🇮🇳🇮🇳 really I like🤟🤟
It all depends which part of Delhi you are visiting and staying..
That King Qutubuddin Abak Destroyed many temples 😡
Being an Indian never visited Taj Mahal. May be I should checkout during Dec holiday period. Hoping it is not crowded at that time. Really clean room and well maintained bathroom at the Lucky hotel.
What vaccines if any, did you get to travel to India?
Hepatitis A&B and typhoid😊
@@RhettandClaire Hepatitis A& b being the ones you got as a child?
I’ve been recommended the Japanese encephalitis & rabies ? As while not sure if it’s necessary
Thank you again
I just found your videos.they are super high quality and with awesome editing.and you are experiencing the true india with your local freinds❤️.i am really happy. I am on binge watching spree🔥.awsome work
You guys are brave. I could never.
Haldirams Rasagulla is an insult to rasagullas.
No wonder it tasted like paper in sugar water.
Oh no! Need to try it somewhere else then
@@RhettandClaire Kolkata is where u can get authentic ones.
Public urinals with no doors? Only in India! 😂 The surprises never end in Delhi.
Rhett and Claire great content, informative, entertaining thanks you !
Thank YOU😁🙏🏻
Wow great clog we are love tha India
I was there last month for 4 weeks Delhi is awesome
When I hear this line from western foreigners, which is become almost like a quote that "India is one of the cheepeast country we visited" I wish I can tell them is that we South Asian countries which you westerners call 3rd world country's we made your currency $ stronger . So don't say that repeatedly India is cheep , for us Indians isn't cheap though we love INDIA and always will, but we have to lot hard work and hustle to earn those gandhiji notes. At last i am complaining you guys just try understand as common Indian prospective. you guys are always welcome to in this beautiful land also in Indian culture we say "Atithi Devo Bhava(Guest are like God)" . Happy journey
We come from South Africa, another 3rd world country. Please don’t assume we’re wealthy westerners🙏🏻
Nice trip there, i cannot wait for more India trip
Yay! We’re so glad😁🙏🏻
Oh yes! All vloggers on alighting at Delhi show Pahargunj or at Mumbai direct taxis to Dharavi said to be the largest slum in the world. That's true. White European & US people have never seen poverty and they enjoy seeing the misery of our 3rd world India. I am so glad your future travellers will avoid this country of ours. Wierd, chaotic, strange English accen and a medieval country! Keep it up !!!
We’re from a third world country ourselves, South Africa. We come from a place of poverty and intense crime, our opinions are not coming from a place of privilege and niavety😊
Bro they're from ABD's country. Not European or US. Not all whites are from there. Their accent gives it away as well. Think before you type in showing your dumbness. C'mon bro, we're not Americans 👍
@@RhettandClaire although I get your pov but your choice of showing chaotic & older parts hurt him. India is the most diverse country in the world but some slum tourists intentionally visit these slums chaotic places & damaged India's picture alot & your videos are adding into it. The time you spent showing old Delhi & chaos & sum up modern sides within a minute raise questions although I'm not complaining but trying to explain his concerns. India currently world's 3rd & 5th largest gdp is a fastest developing country so there's bound to be developed & undeveloped sides. Like in Delhi itself if you visit neighborhood like Gurugram & Noida you'll feel you're in another world. Hope you understand. 🙏
@@fta_in623 we did visit Gorgoan and those videos are coming. It’s simply not possible to visit all these places in a matter of 1 day. You have to watch all of the videos to get the whole picture. You can’t judge based on 1.
@@RhettandClaire first of all thank you for the reply & I'm not judging it I was just explaining his POV not mine! Although later I found you're fighting with people asking genuine questions & smiling when anyone says India a dirty country did changed my opinion. It's great you've visited Gurugram I'll wait for that video & I hope you showed proper Cyber City in there & not stray animals & outskirts slums of the city🤞Also try visiting Himalayas if you really enjoy your time because You can't find Himalayas except in Nepal and India so it's unique too not only slums🤧
fun facts
in India a horn and brake pedal is Connected
you can find public toilet in India, because everywhere is public toilet
I liked your video however I have a question:
Why didn’t you do a closeup of your Indian tour guide?
seriously, you guys just showed most of the old Delhi yeah I know you need to show everything you experiencing but can't you balance it out? we have the great modern infrastructure in Delhi like visiting aerocity gurugram NCR region but every foreigner comes to India and shows videos like this only and makes us feel bad on the world stage... no offense guys waiting for your next vlogs
It looks like they have a Bad company who joined them and take to worst places. Like in the first part of the video. What a place they picked to go with tourist in those narrow stairs. Etc.
It's beyond my understanding.
We asked to experience this. We are fully aware that Delhi has many modern wonderful buildings but we don't want to see this, we can see this in our own country and many others around the world. We want to see something unique and new to us. Regardless, if you decide to continue watching our videos then you will see that we do explore the modern areas of Gorgoan, etc. And yes, we are very impressed with the infrastructure there.
Exactly these Ignorant tourist who thinks whole india stinks and lives like in old Delhi
Bet you they can’t even afford to stay in New Delhi
Dumb guys ... will you love travel to Nigeria, Kenya slums ?? No, coz you already see lots of it in india ... and that's why indian abroad travel list start with western country ... then why they want to explore new delhi, the city life they were living whole life... for sure they wana explore different which they haven't seen
What is KEJRIWAL doing to improve the condition of old delhi ?
Baie dankie for your love for India 🇮🇳 and us Indians. Pragtig! ❤️ 😍 Sending you people love and blessings from 🇮🇳 India (Greater Bombay) Mumbai. Goeie naand, Stay safe please precious ones.
Oh my goodness, your Afrikaans is very good👏🏼 Thank you for the kind words😀🙏🏻
@@RhettandClaire goeie more,you're most welcome 😊 ❤️, love your beautiful language and your beautiful country. I have friends from the Republic of South Africa and Namibia both. G-d bless you both. Keep safe please. 💞
In India you have to must visit udaipur rajasthan
These videos have been so useful in me planning my trip to india, massive thanks!
I think it would be cool to shoot drones in India. good to see
the answer is YES. I have a video doing the same, the mosque and famous temple is enough to convince anyone i think
you guys should really step out of the golden triangle and explore the rest of India. States in the northeast, up north in jammu and Kashmir, Madhya pradesh, Gujrat, Kerela, Karnataka have so much to see. you can stay in India for 6 months and still can't visit it all
love from India, You can also visit south India & Himalayan region of India I feel India have everything like mountains rivers desert volcano, sea beaches, rich wild life & diversity of culture
Hey you guys, I really enjoy watching your vlogs and got a lot of info while traveling in delhi from your videos. Thanks a lotttt!!!
First foreigner vlogger at Qutub minar.
editing is 🔥🔥🔥💯
Seems you visited the old Delhi only. You skipped New Delhi and the Delhi metro.
Wow wow that was a very interesting video. Loved it and well done ❤👌💋
Thank you mom!❤️
Welcome to Bharat 🙏
Please watch Vloggers like Harry Jaggars, Luke Damant and gowithali . They know how to truly explore
나도 안도애 갈 계획이여서 영상을 매우 흥미롭게 봤어요
Always welcome 😄😊
Great video.... Thank you.
Hi, well done you guys, for south African to visit India I would have never expected that to happen. And a positive attitude. Wow.
Nice Video❤ ...Hope you enjoyed ...next time please visit South Indian
Amazing, I really want to travel there ❤️🫶🏽
Did you use a tour guide for New Delhi?
No, we used our friends😊
Did you try Pani Puri (street food)?
Thanks guys! 😊😊😊
This is soo coool!
Thank you friend!😁😁
lonavla, goa, kerala, are also some pretty places in india to visit.
Great video ❤️❤️✌️🔥
Welcome to🇮🇳 india
I love your videos!!!!
Welcome to INDIA.
Of course it is worth it to be here ❣️
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video n for showing your explorations in New Delhi.
If u guys examine d Qutb Minar closely, u will see a resemblance of d islamic architecture 9:38 with d Petronas twin towers.
That's so true! Thank you for watching Yasin😁🙏🏻
@@RhettandClaire Thank u too. 😁
It's not New Delhi, it's Old Delhi they are exploring.
@@matgranger5061 Qutub Minar is in New Delhi. We explored both.
there is no need to go to the pharmacy to vomit and take medication, watching this video will be enough
Qutub Minar was destructed by Mughals originally it was the Hindus religion place
Nice editing, i am from gurugram haryana india you should vlogs on haryana
'We were told NOT to visit Delhi...' -> 1:38
Noticed you ate the ice in the drink at the beginning… did you get sick?
Did you get sick at all?
From eating street food ?
No we didn’t 🙏🏻. It was a well known restaurant and I think they use bottled water
Where's your accent from? It sounds South African with some Finnish in there top of with some Kiwi.
Just South African, British South African I guess😅
Delhi is a combination of 19th and 21st century
Peaceful community in old Delhi living in 19th century
看了印度，才真正了解中国有多领先😂这个城市至少落后咱们二十年
Why need to compare? We respect China, it's actually good ppl are living not surviving
Awesome video 🔥🔥
Thank you so much!😁😁🙏🏻
Who ever from out of the countries you can visit south also know about the difference btw north and south
Open urinals parts was.. hilarious...your expression...was 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Come to south part of india you can experience an different india
Go anywhere in india but Dehli or UP. For example Gujarat is very safe
when yuh guys coming to visit nepal ....its near to tibet and china
Sister ... What u r seeing is not 400 yrs old... Its all date back to 1 bce... A city built destroyed & rebuilt...as old as epic mahabharata... City is under construction for atleast 1000 yrs
A beautifully made video, extremely interesting for those of us who haven't braved such a hectic city! A real leap of faith for you both, am glad you were rewarded in return 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Thank you for always watching and for having the best comments💕. We’ve realized we can’t tell what your real name is wom bat?😁
@@RhettandClaire I use wombat as an online name after meeting them at a petting zoo in Australia, I thought they were so cool! It's also because commenting about some conflict zones attracts the wrong kind of attention so have to stay safe. Now I'm getting older I do waddle around like a wombat though! 😄
If u ever come to India, avoid old parts of cities.. In Delhi u can live a posh life with posh locality in areas like Gurugram, south Delhi , Aerocity and Greater Noida. Do view these places on RUclips and then plan ur Itinerary. AVOID old Delhi, even I don't have guts to go there.
hectic city? few parts don't reflect the city as a whole. These cringe vlogs cannot be the absolute representation of a city! period.
@@popattatto these 2 have no idea about the real parts of Delhi Ive been 3 times and loved it. I agree with you they are very cringe 2 white people trying to tell us about Delhi is wrong
