Chai, Picnics, and Celebrations on Two Wheels
Delhi is best seen at a slow pace, with a cup of hot chai in hand. We do not just ride; we pause for conversations, plan surprise celebrations, and turn every outing into a genuine connection.
What do tourists think of Indian chai? We asked them. From "spicy" and "gingery" to "the finest tea in the world," their reactions are priceless. A chai break is an essential part of our cultural immersion.
An anniversary on a cycle. We were thrilled to celebrate this lovely couple's 16 years of togetherness with a special cake break during the tour. We love being a part of your special moments.
The simple pleasure of a hot cup of chai on a cool morning. These breaks are a chance to recharge, chat, and soak in the local atmosphere.
Our group gathers around a local chai stall, a quintessential Delhi experience. It's in these moments that you connect with the city and your fellow riders.
We love hearing from our riders. Their feedback and reviews inspire us to keep creating unforgettable experiences that go beyond just a simple bike ride.
Our guests' curiosity is what makes our tours special. We love answering questions about everything from history and politics to Bollywood, making every ride a dynamic conversation.
About More Than a Tour: Chai, Picnics & Celebrations
We do not do scheduled stops at tourist traps. Our chai breaks happen at local vendors we have known for years, the ones who know exactly how much ginger and masala to add to keep you pedaling. If you are joining us for a birthday, anniversary, or special milestone, we coordinate ahead of time to have a cake or picnic setup waiting for you at a scenic rooftop or a quiet park, ensuring the moment feels natural rather than staged.
For us, the ride is only half the story. The rest happens in the pauses. We believe that 'slow travel' is about soaking in the atmosphere, and there is no better way to do that in Delhi than with a cutting chai in your hand.
Why Our Breaks Are Different
When you cycle through Purani Dilli or glide through Lutyens' Delhi, you get tired. That is when the magic kicks in. We take you to our favorite tea stalls—places that do not show up on Google Maps but are legendary in their neighborhoods. You will taste authentic Indian tea the way locals do, with biscuits, conversation, and a bit of street-side banter.
Celebrating on Two Wheels
We love being part of your life milestones. Whether it is an anniversary, a birthday, or a reunion, we handle the logistics so you can enjoy the moment. We can arrange:
- Picnic setups: We bring the mats, snacks, and sweets to spots like Lodhi Gardens or near the Humayun's Tomb area.
- Surprise Cakes: Planning an anniversary ride? We will ensure a fresh cake is ready at a designated heritage rooftop.
- Group Adventures: We create customized routes for teams and families that prioritize bonding over speed.
Cycling is our 'pehlimohabbat' (first love), but sharing these precious human experiences is why we keep pedaling. If you have an idea for a celebration or just want to explore the city's hidden corners, tell us what you have in mind. We are all about creating stories that stay with you long after the tour ends.
Delhi By Cycle
We are a team of storytellers who fell in love with Delhi back in 2009. We believe a cycle seat is the best place to witness the city's chaos and charm, especially when shared with friends, family, or someone special.
