The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate and carry a refillable bottle
Bottled water is provided but having a refillable bottle helps in summer and reduces plastic waste.
Dress respectfully for religious sites
Wear shoulders and knees covered for mosques and gurudwaras; carry a scarf to cover your head if needed.
Build time for traffic and security lines
Start early to see more and expect security checks at major monuments which can add 15–30 minutes.
Carry small cash for bazaars and tips
Card machines aren’t always available in narrow lanes; small bills make tuk‑tuk and market purchases easier.
