Activities to Indulge In
Marvel at the Tall Qutub Minar
At 72.5 metres the Qutub Minar is the tallest brick minaret in the world. Five tapering storeys each carry a balcony and bands of Quranic inscription. The interior stairway has been closed to the public since 1981, so the tower is admired from the courtyard.

Guided Commentary
Visit the Ancient Historical Sites
The complex holds far more than the tower. The Quwwat-ul-Islam Mosque, the Tomb of Iltutmish, the Alai Darwaza gateway and the Tomb of Imam Zamin all sit within a short walk, and your guide connects them into a single Delhi Sultanate story.
Entry Included
Mosque & Tombs
Alai Darwaza
Witness the Famous Iron Pillar
The seven-metre iron pillar in the mosque courtyard dates to the fourth century and has resisted rust for roughly 1,600 years — a metallurgical puzzle that still draws researchers. It is fenced today, so photographs are taken from the railing.

Photo Stop
Have Stopovers for Photos and Garden Visits
The lawns around the complex are among the best kept in Delhi and make the tower easy to frame. Late-afternoon light on the red sandstone is the pick of the day, and Mehrauli Archaeological Park is a short walk away if you have time.

Our guide was thorough with knowledge of the Qutub Minar complex and he made the history fascinating. The entry without any waiting was very time saving, since we didnu2019t have to wait for an hour in the queue. Would definitely suggest the half-day tour.

The walk in the Mehrauli Archaeological Park was great and I love it. Not many tourists go there, but our guide took us to step-wells and such tombs that are less known. For such value, itu2019s amazing.

Realized my first tour to Delhi included visiting the Qutub Minar and Lotus Temple combo tour, and I truly enjoyed it. The driver picked me up on time and the guide was a nice person. The AC cab was heavenly since it was really hot.

I went on a sunset photography trip and it was breathtaking seeing sandstone in light. Our guide gave us more time near the Iron Pillar to book all the memories in photographs.
