First Time Traveller In India?

Traveling to India for the first time?

  • I am saving up to travel to India in the spring of 2013, I am currently planning on saving $4000. Do you think this is an accurate amount of money to save to include round trip international flight and 14 days worth of traveling in India? I am planning on going to Agra, Jaipur, Jodhpur, Udaipur, and the Kanthambore national park. Also do you think that it is wise for an American first time visiting India to hire a guide? I have been looking at tours of India and they are all pretty expensive, if we are able to get around India without to much hassle and enjoy it without a guide that would be great. Thanks!

  • Answer:

    i think u shod get a guide or sumthing. i've been to agra. its beautiful, but having a guide with you to make you understand the signifance of place is also imp as i think. oh and if your visiting india please make sure you know our language. HINDI . u'll need it the most. and for the aspect of shopping. u need to know how to haggle with the price. so u need a person who truely stays there and can help you and kind of like know it all person. if u need anymore help. let me know oh and north places are quite expensive than west of india. well m middle born so that was my experiance. well my dad's. p.s. i m only 19yr

Welcome to India. $4000=4000*Rs.50=Rs.2000000. Its's generally enough to tour India. All the cities you've mentioned're in north India and you can surely do it with this amount. Get a tourist map of India that will help you well. All the best.
