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 some crackdowns happened.

Worth going back or should I try somewhere new?

Cheers

I was there in January and prices were slightly higher.

Spent about $63/day all-in. Quality was excellent.

My tip: avoid weekends.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

I was there in January and prices were great value.

Spent about $146/day all-in. Quality was above average.

My tip: the late night crowd is different.

Agreed on all points. Make sure to use a VPN.

Been going for years. The scene has shifted a bit but still good.

Can confirm. Was there 2 weeks ago and everything checks out.

I'd also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.

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

Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

Excellent write-up. This is why this forum is the best resource out there.

Adding my experience from February.

The scene has changed a bit since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.
