  • India ↗Apply for the e-visa only on the official government portal (indianvisaonline.gov.in); lookalike sites charge extra. Check the current rules, fees and how far ahead to apply.
  • India ↗Do not follow anyone who says your hotel is closed, the station ticket office is closed or a road is shut; use the prepaid taxi counter, the metro or an app car.
  • India ↗Carry Indian rupees in small notes (10, 20, 50, 100); change for 500 is often refused.
  • Delhi and NCR ↗November smog and May–June heat both cut a day's walking: plan the outdoor sights first thing.
  • Delhi ↗Old Delhi lanes and station forecourts are crowded and uneven: bags go from the car to the door, never on a walk.
  • Delhi ↗Ignore anyone who says your hotel, the station ticket office or the road is closed; use the official counter or your app.

  • Bags cannot be dragged from the car.

Lock this area

Lock the area first. Hotel search links appear only after you decide where the pillow is — so no listing can pull you into the wrong area.
