Wondering what fellow FTers would advise? (having never been to or through Delhi previously!)
I'd strongly suggest getting out of the airport and into the city. If you've never been in DEL, then $60 is probably worth it for your partner to get a visa, etc. However, the Taj tour should be attempted only if you have the energy. The 12 hour layover doesn't really give you more than about 9 hours net (visa, exit, taxi, re-entry with time to spare, etc will easily take up the rest of the time!).
