Old cities were built for feet, not cars. The travellers who enjoy them most park at the edge and glide in on two wheels — with a bike that folds into any car boot in 30 seconds.
Rental companies rarely allow roof racks; a folder (Decathlon Tilt for value, Tern for quality, Brompton for the icon) fits inside even a hatchback.
Drive to the old-city edge → park → unfold → ride past every jam into lanes cars can't enter. Museums, ghats, forts, markets — the last mile becomes the best mile.
