Ten Budget Travel Tips to India by CheapOair.com
  India is home to the world's oldest and most ancient civilizations. India is as high tech as it is rich in natural wonders. Each region in India offers a unique and distinctive history and culture. India is also home to some of the most insightful religious philosophies. It is a country you will visit time and time again. Here are ten budget travel tips to visiting India.

Take Walking Tours
Some of the major cities, such as Delhi and Bombay, offer reasonably prices walking and bus tours of the city.  These tours are great because you have an expert showing you around and you can learn so much about the culture and history of the city.
 

Book Hotels Wisely
There are a large number of hotels in the major cities, which is good, because you can really find some great deals.  Spend some time really search for that perfect rate to fit in your budget, because you are sure to find it.

Rent a Bicycle or Scooter
Instead of renting a car, think about renting a bicycle or scooter once you arrive.  They are less expensive and you can easily get just about anywhere you want to go in the city!  Strap on a helmet and zip around the city!

Book last minute
Cheap travel deals are available if you are willing to plan a last minute trip.  If you find yourself with some extra time on your hands and a hankering to experience an amazing new culture, then check for those last minute deals, and run off to India for a few days!

Be flexible with your dates
Many times, flights are cheaper if you are willing to travel mid-week rather than departing and leaving on a weekend.  Sometimes staying and extra day or leaving a day early can save you big bucks.

Go shopping
That’s right!  Go shopping.  Visit local stores and shopping centers – the one’s that the locals frequent, and you will find lots of great products for a fraction of the cost you’d pay back home.  Shop the day away, because even on a budget, you can afford it!

Book a Package Deal
If you want to see several different cities, check out some of the package deals available.  Often times these packaged tours are cheaper than if you booked every leg of the trip yourself.  There are also package deals out there for single cities, which include hotel and airfare at reduced rates.  You’ll still have a great time, but spend less money!

Fly Round Trip
If you are planning to fly to more that one city during your stay in India, then try to fly in and out of the same city.  Round-trip tickets are usually less expensive than booking one-way tickets.

Dine Wisely
To get the most of your culinary dollar, avoid the touristy hotel restaurants.  Get out and explore the city, and eat where the locals eat.  You’ll experience the local cuisine at a fraction of the cost.
