Been thinking about visiting India and wanted to get the latest intel from those who've been recently.
Specifically interested in:
1. Current price ranges
2. Best areas to base yourself
3. Any safety concerns
4. How's the quality compared to Thailand?
Any recent trip reports would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since last year. Current prices are higher than what's described here.

Did you use an agency or find girls at online?

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.

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

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

I was there in February and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $82/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: avoid weekends.
