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.
At around Rs. 30, 000 you can actually look at planning a fairly lavish vacation with 2-3 star hotels, some fun-filled activities, moderately budgeted restaurants and bar with relishing delicacies, and commuting by flights. You can still travel by a train to save on to some amount which you can happily use up for shopping at the tourist markets. Pre-planning and pre-booking is still recommended to avoid any unplanned over expenditure.
The month of October is all about festivities, family time, food, fun and frolic. This year, try something different and celebrate the festivals away from home, but not away from your loved ones. Plan a festive holiday and start making memories.
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.
Make your booking at least 3 months before your travel date to avail the best deals on flights and hotels. Sign up for city tours and food walks in advance to avoid last-minute charges. You can appreciate staying at cool places and eat at popular restaurants if you plan your itinerary much in advance.
Most of the Indian cities experience pleasant weather in October. Autumn is at its peak this month. As a result, the weather is neither too hot nor too cold. October is also the month of festivities.

Tourist destinations like Delhi, Agra, Jaipur, Jaisalmer, Jodhpur, Udaipur, Indore, Bhopal, Sanchi, Nainital, Amritsar, Chandigarh, Shimla, Manali and Kasol are the top places to visit in October.
