Travel for Hills & Mountains in India with Rs. 20000 in October
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.
If you are on a budget but still want to have the best of both worlds, then a travel within your country is the best option to opt for this holiday season. A true traveller does not bother about all things fancy, bright and shiny; they are only in for it for experiences. India is a country oozing with good looks, good foods and good vibes. Ranging from colourful landscapes and breathtaking sights to hospitality and mouthwatering delicacies, India is a perfect destination for any travel plan. With so many regional and ancient art forms, India will never disappoint the impulsive shopper inside you.
October is the time when the world is gearing up for the festivities and you are looking for options to make your festival season all the more fun. So, why not go off-beat with a trip to some isolated island or mountains to feel the freshness of the approaching winters (or summers, depending on the hemisphere).
