Delhi Travel Tips

Some Delhi travel from my side. I hope these tips will help you your trip to the capital city much more. Just like every coin, the city also has two sides, one positive and one negative. To balance these two sides, you will be needing some dos and don't for Delhi travel. I am sharing with you some safety guidelines for Delhi, India, which I have followed during MY first visit:

• Get all your bookings like hotel, travel, etc done in advance, before coming to Delhi. Also, make sure to check that the bookings are confirmed and in order.
• Try to visit Delhi during the period of Feb-March and Sept-Nov. If you are planning to visiting this city some other month, you will be facing either extremely hot or extremely cold weather.
• Beware of touts and agents when you go out for shopping and exercise discretion.
• Except for the malls, upmarket areas and big showrooms, bargaining is prevalent everywhere. So, don't be shy to apply your bargaining Skills.

Discover India through Delhi Tourism

I certainly don’t know “What you did Last summer” but I can help you in planning your summer and upcoming summers. At least I can inform you the option we Delhiites have.

Recently our Delhi Tourism has tied up with its counterparts in other States to prepare "Discover India'' packages, with the idea to provide various options to Delhiites and those from the adjoining regions to spend their vacations alone or along with their children in the cool environs. These amazing packages will include a mix of pilgrim tourism, a stint in the Himalayas with exciting offerings like para-gliding, trekking and night camping, not to miss a jeep safari to the hilly desert region of Ladakh.

The "Discover India'' offers fascinating experience for those also looking for a pilgrimage. The Delhi Tourism has prepared a five-day package tour to Badrinath adding three more days if the tourists are interested in going to Kedarnath also. Religious places like Haridwar, Rishikesh, Gaurikund, Srinagar would be covered under this project.

For romantics and nature lovers Delhi Tourism with the collaboration with the Himachal Pradesh Tourism Development Corporation brought for you Shimla-Manali-Chandigarh week- long package. Then there is the nine-day option of Shimla-Manali- Dharamsala-Dhalhousie which is an exhaustive tour and covers various parts of the hill State. For the Delhi Dare Devils Delhi Tourism had also one of the most exciting jeep safari package lined up to discover Ladakh.

Special student group packages have also been offered and a number of Delhi schools have already lapped them up and are sending groups to places like Himachal Pradesh and Uttaranchal. Under the package tour for students, arrangements had been made for adventure sports like para-gliding, trekking and mountain climbing. In addition to this, students would also be put up in tented accommodation and given the option of camping at interesting places as part of the offer to promote adventure- related options.

Polishing Hidden Heritage Jems of Delhi

Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage (INTACH), a nationwide non-profit organization founded to protect the common national heritage, concluded a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Delhi Government's tourism department on 3rd July, 2008.

The first step will be working towards the long term plan for getting Delhi declared as the World Heritage City. This process will involve the areas from Humanyun's Tomb to Red Fort and area from Nizamuddin to Safdarjung and Qutub Minar all around to develop it as Heritage Tourism Circuit. Under this project government will develop a heritage route connecting certain monuments by designing a road from Red Fort to Humanyun's Tomb and Safdarjung to Qutab Minar. The Government and the INTACH have abided by in principle to protect, conserve, and promote the cherished architectural, environmental and living (social and cultural) heritage resources of the National Capital Territory of Delhi. By undertaking conservation oriented development projects and other related strategies the Government intends to lead to the encryption of Delhi as a World Heritage City by UNESCO. The government will monitor activities to be undertaken by INTACH and provide required support where necessary.
