India's food changes dramatically from region to region, so sticking to hotel buffets means missing most of what makes the trip interesting — street chaat in Delhi, Rajasthani thalis, or Mughlai dishes in Agra's old bazaars. I came across food tours in India built for Australian travellers, which pair local guides with stops at trusted street vendors and small family-run restaurants rather than tourist-trap spots, usually worked in alongside the Golden Triangle route. It seems like a good way to try things safely without guessing which stalls are fine for a foreign stomach. Has anyone done a guided food tour in India? Did it actually help avoid getting sick?
