You will be overwhelmed by India

From the moment you step through the arrivals door you'll be assaulted by the sounds, the colors, the sheer pace of life being lived to the fullest. But you'll also be charmed by its spirituality, beauty and friendliness. Be overwhelmed but don't be under-prepared.

Here are a few safe travel strategies to help with your visit to India:

  • Do your research - and make sure you know and understand the culture before embarking. For example, in India, the genders relate differently, and the basis of the culture is still very traditional.You can’t relate to the opposite sex in India in the same way that you would in a western country. A casual, friendly word or gesture could be perceived as an invitation.
  • Dress Appropriately - aside from a few pockets, such as South Mumbai and Goa, India is still a very traditional society. Which means you should follow the rules of society and dress modestly.
  • Attitude - when you travel alone, in a place like India, it’s more important to be confident than polite. Trust your instincts. If you feel that someone is a potential threat, or is harassing you, walk away. Don’t bother with politeness. Ignoring people who stare, beggars, and the overly-intrusive is the best way to get rid of them.
