Mountains and hills are mind-boggling serene locations to go for tranquillity and live in restful surroundings. Waking up to the panoramic views, snow-covered slopes and admiring lush greenery are the beautiful offerings that a hillock would have for you in-store. Have a picnic on the picturesque cliff watching the sunset and surrender yourself to nature; indulge in activities like trekking, camping and river rafting to rejuvenate yourself. Come back home with a refreshed mind to get back to your daily routine.
If you are planning a moderately low budget of around Rs. 20,000 for a tour, look for short getaway options. However, you definitely need to pre-pan to avoid last moment booking hikes. Make sure to keep a tab of all expenditures and make all your bookings in advance – right from travel, to stay, to activities. Stick to low budget restaurants or local foods and local markets to stay within your budget limits.
Travelling within your country is always a great option before moving out to an international destination. You get to save on a lot of budget most of the times and also save on a lot of travelling time. Also, you don’t need to worry much about the food, the climate or the culture. And India being the land of heritages, history, culture and geography will never fail to suprise you with its charm.
By August, you have spent almost the entire year on the roads in the bustling traffic and noisy horns. Why not take a break from the frenetic schedule and hit the road, but this time with a travel plan.
Leather jackets, thermals, gloves, leg warmers, socks, comfortable walking shoes, lip balm/sunscreen/lotion, wind-cheaters, sweaters/pullovers, mufflers, woollen socks, earmuffs, backpack, umbrella, camera and most importantly a first-aid kit are the best things to pack whilst travelling to the hills.
A lot can be done with a budget of Rs. 20,000! Decent hotels, cool homestays and rustic BnBs can easily fit into this budget. Instead of tourist places, you can explore the destination like a local by visiting local bazaars, cafes, restaurants, streets, etc. Take a shared cab or public transportation to save money. Spend time in nature and take leisurely walks instead of visiting expensive places.
India's top tourist destinations are Goa, Uttarakhand, Kerala, Rajasthan, South India, Himachal Pradesh, Andaman, Kashmir and North East. The best Indian cities for tourists are Manali, Dharamshala, Darjeeling, Shillong, Srinagar, Gulmarg, Munnar, Thekkady, Dalhousie, Kasauli, Ooty, Udaipur, Allepey, Corbett, etc.
Apart from the pleasant rain showers, August offers excellent travel discounts, fantastic weather, lovely views and lesser crowds.
