How A Tourist Gets About In India

By Rani Rajput


“Athiti Devo Bhavah” or Guest is God – this ethereal attitude about her guests is precisely the reason as to why India travel has gained considerable popularity among other Asian destinations. And, if you are looking for an affordable vacation, which at the same time will also include the colors and varieties of this diverse nation, then it may be a good option to do a little India travel search and gather the necessary information before venturing out on your trip.

For International travelers though, an Indian travel guide would be the best option to traverse across the country with minimum worries about sticking to the cultural requirements. Seasonal changes should not be overlooked and along with that the type of dressing and accessories needed to make the tour comfortable. Carrying umbrellas, glares and hats might be a good idea for the summers whereas winter travel may need the inclusion of slightly warm clothes preferably woolen wear and jackets. It is important to keep in mind that the climactic variations are often baffling for the first time travelers. So, it is advisable that if you are on your first such vacation then inquire beforehand to avoid being a victim of unexpected modifications in weather conditions.

The plan of action that you can follow is to first choose your desired destination. Then you can do a little research on how to reach that particular place. It would depend on whether you are traveling domestically or from outside India. Generally, the Delhi and Mumbai airports witness a heavy crowd of foreign tourists throughout the year. Or, you can also select theme tours like those focusing on wildlife, heritage, beaches, hill stations and romantic destinations.

While making your itinerary, you need to keep certain India travel tips in mind to ensure that your journey becomes a memorable one. Needless to say, the last thing you would want is an unwanted blemish in your holidays. And, the most important tip that you need to remember is concerning the internal transportation system.

For example, when you are in Delhi, the auto rickshaws serve as the taxi with a twist – a little bit of bargaining is required to get to the right rate. The same auto rickshaw runs on a fixed fare based on distance covered in Kolkata, and in Mumbai it fulfills the purpose of a cab. With ample finances to spare you can even consider renting a private car to travel long distances. Otherwise the Indian railways will give you connectivity from the northernmost corner to the southernmost tip of the country! Biking has become a popular way to travel for those who wish to add a tinge of adventure to their expeditions.

Apart from the above, you may also wish to keep some quick tips in mind like keeping a change of currency handy because you would need to use them for short distance traveling and buying objects of daily use and necessities. Also, important is carrying first aid kit with medicines you may need, just in case you face unexpected health issues.

In all, it is extremely important to keep the above tips in mind to make your India travels a healthy and happy one!
