Budget Travel Is Possible
India can be affordable for careful travellers. Planning transport early, choosing local food and avoiding peak pricing can reduce costs.
Money-Saving Ideas
Compare train and bus routes, travel off-season, use public transport where safe and choose stays with good recent reviews. Avoid deals that look too cheap to be genuine.
Safety First
Keep emergency contacts, avoid isolated areas late at night and protect your phone and documents. Budget travel should still be responsible travel.
