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).
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.
Explore the local market, have delicious meals at dhabas and try some street food. Soak in the sun and enjoy the panoramic views. Spend leisurely time at a touristy place, which is free of entry charges.
