Information & Tips for Mumbai
Mumbai, India’s financial and cultural hub, offers attractions like the Gateway of India, Marine Drive, and the Elephanta Caves. The local currency is the Indian rupee (INR), and credit cards are widely accepted, though cash is still commonly used. The price level can vary, with affordable street food and budget accommodations, but higher-end restaurants and hotels can be expensive. Mumbai’s weather is typically hot and humid, with a monsoon season from June to September and a cooler, more pleasant climate from November to February, which is ideal for visiting.

Information & Tips for India
India is a large and diverse country with major tourist sights like the Taj Mahal in Agra, the forts and palaces of Rajasthan, the backwaters of Kerala, and spiritual cities like Varanasi and Rishikesh. The currency used is the Indian Rupee (INR). Prices vary widely—budget travel is possible, but mid-range and luxury options are also common, especially in tourist-heavy areas. Weather depends heavily on region and season: winters (Nov–Feb) are generally pleasant, while summers (Mar–June) can be extremely hot, and the monsoon (June–Sept) brings heavy rainfall in many parts.
India’s transport infrastructure is a mix of modern and outdated systems. Within cities, getting around can be chaotic but manageable—options include auto-rickshaws, taxis, metro systems in larger cities like Delhi and Mumbai, and app-based services like Uber and Ola. Between cities, India has an extensive railway network that’s affordable but often crowded and prone to delays; domestic flights are common and relatively inexpensive for longer distances. Roads connect most places, but traffic and conditions can be unpredictable.
