Good to know

The little practical things — weather, money, phones, plugs and more.

What's the weather like in late September?

Jaipur and Delhi are warm — roughly 25–35°C by day. Kasauli, up in the hills, is noticeably cooler, especially in the evenings, so bring a light layer for there.

What about money and paying for things?

The currency is the Indian rupee. ATMs are widely available, and cards work in the cities — but it's worth carrying some cash for smaller places.

How do I stay connected — phone and data?

The easiest option is an eSIM — set one up before you fly and you'll have data the moment you land.

Will my chargers work? What about adapters?

The voltage is the same as at home (230V), so your chargers and devices are fine — no converter needed. The sockets take round-pin plugs, so bring a small travel adapter to be safe.

Can I drink the tap water?

Stick to bottled or filtered water.

How should I dress for temples and sightseeing?

Modest clothing that covers the shoulders and knees is best.

How do I stay well during the trip?

See our Vaccinations & health guide for what's recommended for our route.

What's the emergency number?

Dial 112 for emergencies across India.
