What's
the climate like and when's the best time to visit? The best time to visit
this part of the world is from mid September till April. This period includes
Autumn, Winter & Spring seasons. During this period weather remains very pleasant
(cool, fresh mornings and evenings and dry, sunny days).
From
May onwards till start of July it remains very hot due to summers, which is followed
by monsoon rains till August end. Due to hot & humid weather, it is not supposed
as tourist season.
However,
of late, tourist arrivals have also increased in summers primarily because of
the substantial off-season discounts. Moreover, since the hotel rooms, tourist
buses & cars are air-conditioned, one feels the sun's glare only while doing
sightseeing tours or shopping. But then who minds a good tan on the move! |

How
best can I get the flavour of a particular destination? We would suggest
you to try and interact with the locals of the area as much as possible to get
the real flavour. There will definitely be a language problem but many people
in small towns are quite fluent in English, which is a global language. You can
also learn few
Useful
Hindi
words & phrases, which you can speak with locals
to make them surprised & delighted.
You can also buy a handicraft or
souvenir, which is typical of the place. It would be better if you wear a piece
of clothing from the place you are visiting (e.g. A sarong in Goa, a baandhani
dupatta in Rajasthan) to blend in well with local colours. |

I'm
very particular about my kind of food. I think I'll face such problems. Almost
every tourist destination has some very good restaurants, which serve the food
(Indian/Chinese/Continental) according to your tastes. French, Italian and Mexican
dishes are also easy to find. |
 |
|
Whether
it is good and cheap to eat outside the hotel? Most of the restaurants
in a tourist destination are cheaper in comparison to the restaurants in five/four
star hotels and frequently visited by the local people. Hence eating outside could
be a good experience, which will provide you the opportunity to meet local people.
However,
we request you to check for a restaurant, where quality food is served, with your
driver or local representative before eating outside, to protect yourself from
any kind of health disorders. |
 |
|
Any
cheap option to make ISD calls? In every tourist destination you will find
many STD/ISD booths, which are authorized by the government. We recommend you
to call from these booths. These are reliable and give you receipts for the calls
made. |
 |
|
Can
I hire a mobile phone in India? You can hire a mobile phone connection
from international/domestic airports, departmental stores and often even from
small roadside stores. In India mobile phone services are provided by private
companies, which is at par with the best in the world. |

Whom
should I contact in case of any complaint?
