Quick question for the India regulars — has anything changed in the last few months?
I was there 6 months ago and had a great time but I've heard things are quieter than usual.
Worth going back or should I try somewhere new?
Cheers

I was there in March and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $96/day all-in. Quality was excellent.
My tip: avoid weekends.

I'd rate it similarly. Solid 8/10 destination.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were higher when I went. Maybe timing matters.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

I'd also recommend downloading Grab before you go. Essential.
