Start at Humayun’s Tomb in Nizamuddin East—from central Delhi, a cab or auto usually takes about 20–35 minutes, depending on traffic. The complex is generally open from sunrise to sunset; allow 1.5–2 hours for the tomb, garden paths and quieter corners. Entry is roughly ₹40 for Indian visitors and ₹600 for foreign visitors, with online booking sometimes available. September can still be humid, so carry water and check the forecast before setting out.
From Humayun’s Tomb, take a cab to Lodhi Garden in Lodhi Estate (around 15–25 minutes in ordinary traffic). Give yourself about an hour to wander between the historic tombs and shaded paths; the garden is free and typically open until around 8 pm, but arrive with enough daylight to enjoy the monuments. Then head to India Gate via Kartavya Path, roughly 15–25 minutes by cab. A 45-minute evening stroll around the monument and lawns is a good way to catch the lights and the lively local scene; expect crowds, especially on Sunday.
Finish at Saravana Bhavan in Connaught Place, about 15–25 minutes from India Gate by cab, depending on traffic. It’s a reliable stop for South Indian favourites such as dosa, idli and filter coffee; budget around ₹500–900 per person. Sunday evenings can be busy, so allow a little time for a table, and check the branch’s current hours before you go.
