Essential Planning Knowledge for Your Trip to India
Key insights from our 15 years of curating smooth inbound journeys across the subcontinent.
When to Visit (Best Seasons)
October through March offers pleasant, sunny days across Rajasthan, Golden Triangle, and South India. April to June is ideal for Himalayan escapes (Ladakh, Kashmir, Himachal) and prime tiger sightings in national parks.
Indian e-Tourist Visa
Most foreign nationals can apply for an official online Indian e-Visa (30-day, 1-year, or 5-year multi-entry). Processing takes 3 to 5 business days. Ensure your passport has at least 6 months validity.
Clothing & Temple Etiquette
Light, breathable cottons are recommended. When visiting historic temples and mosques, shoulders and knees should be covered. Shoes are easily removed at entrances (clean socks are convenient).
Currency, Cards & Tipping
International Visa and MasterCard are widely accepted at hotels and fine dining venues. ATMs are plentiful at airports and cities. Modest tips for your private chauffeur and monument guides are customary and deeply appreciated.
