Hills & Mountains travel with a Rs. 20000 budget in December

Hills and mountains are a second home to every person who loves being surrounded by nature, walking under hovering clouds, listening to the gushing water or watching flora and fauna in their natural habitat. Whether you are a mountain or a beach person, the experience you get when you are amidst blooming starry sky, hugged by the chilling breeze, listening to the birds sing odes to nature is like no other.

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.

December is Christmas time! The most beautiful time of the year is here when the world is decking up to welcome Santa with their list of wishes. Take out your travel wishes and make sure to fulfil them before the year ends. 'Santa helps those, who helps themselves!'
