Being a non-Punjabi living in Delhi has its perks. You get to explore a whole new world of culture, tradition, and most importantly, food. While there is no shortage of some great Punjabi food and people in Delhi, to truly understand a culture you must travel to the right location too. Chandigarh, the capital of Punjab and Haryana, has always fascinated me with its unique mix of cultures of the two states. A few months ago, I decided to visit Chandigarh to experience Punjabi culture and food in a non-Delhi fashion.<\/p>\n

Since I drive to work and back every day, when I want to unwind and travel, I prefer to book a chauffeur-driven car. After deciding to visit Chandigarh, I started looking for a car rental company to book a reliable taxi service in Delhi.<\/a><\/p>\n

Delhi to Chandigarh is a 4-5 hour drive (provided you can avoid Delhi\u2019s traffic). I wanted to leave early and asked the driver to reach at sharp 6 am. I was pleasantly surprised to receive a call from the driver at 6:01 am saying that he was right outside my house \u2013 a good start. I was glad that I chose to avail Savaari’s Delhi to Chandigarh Taxi Service<\/a> due to the excellent reviews posted by travelers.<\/p>\n

The drive was pleasant as the driver had been on that route umpteen times. He was a qualified engineer who had decided to move into this business and was gaining some hands-on experience before he started. The journey was interesting, and within 5 hours, I was at Chandigarh. After checking in to the hotel and a quick shower, I was ready to embrace Punjabi culture and food.<\/p>\n

I had a friend in Chandigarh who had promised to help me experience the city like a local. He knew I was visiting and by the time I finished my shower, he was waiting at the reception desk to show me around.<\/p>\n

The experience begins<\/strong><\/p>
