All you need to do is book cheap flight tickets and come to India after reading this article.
Here are our best tips to have an India tour at low costs.
For long distance journeys, go on trains.
Indian Railways are the cheapest modes of transport if you want to travel long distances. For example, you can travel up to 700 km for only Rs. 100 in some regions. Isn’t that cool? Flights need to be booked well in advance and the journeys need to be planned to the T for flights to be cheaper. Which is why people on a time crunch opt for online travel agencies to plan their journeys for them (Flyopedia does it better!).
But if you are not hot on time, it is the best option to book Indian trains in the General or Sleeper class as they are, quite literally, the cheapest. The hierarchy of Indian trains goes from
General => Sleeper => 3AC => 2AC => 1AC
With 1AC being the costliest. So for the most savings, book General or Sleeper Class but be warned that it might get too crowded to bear and you are not guaranteed a seat. For a better experience, you can move up the hierarchy and the cost of tickets will increase accordingly.
For accommodations, stay at guest houses or backpacker hostels.
Guest houses are your best bet for small tourist towns and cities. However, in large metro cities they charge a hefty sum of money. Avoid that and stay at a backpacker hostel if your priority is only getting a clean bed sheet and a place to sleep in. Strangers and backpackers like yourself will share your space and you will get tons of stories to share at the cost of less than Rs. 200 a night.Save here and check out business class deals on Flyopedia so you can enjoy the best of both worlds with all its facilities.
For travelling on mountains, carry your own tent.
This is one of the top tips for travel beginners. Always carry your own tent and learn how to handle it like a pro. For no matter where you are, even in the remotest of regions, a tent will still give you a place to sleep and if you’re travelling in the Himalayas, no one would even bother to check your tent even if it is left unattended with your belongings in it. Forget stealing.
For locations, avoid peak tourist seasons.
Yes, you do need to do your own homework, but it is every bit worth the effort to travel India at economical prices. In peak tourist seasons, the price of everything increases rapidly – from lodgings, food and transport as well. It is for the best when you check them out in off seasons, as they still offer great tourist activities or let you choose the off- the- road path where you discover better options with bargains.
