Hey Veer, I have rode this route and its safe in all the way. But for camping I would suggest you to camp near petrol bunks or near any restaurants and near police check posts. It is always better to be on a safer side and the coastal route also being a busy highway see that you camp at least 200 meters away from the road. Happy Travelling!!!
UpvoteCommentHey, though its safe to camp along that coastal route, but I will suggest you to pitch your tent near to a place where you can find instant help (when needed).

Hey, Varanasi and ghats in Ayodhya are best places to experience the festive spirit of Dev Deepawali. The special evening aarti (a holy Hindu ritual) being held at holy Ganga ghats like Dandi ghat, Bachraj ghat and Dasaswamedh ghat is one of the best thing to do when travelling to the Varanasi during Dev Deepawali. If you are a photography lover, then do visit these ghats at the time of sunrise and sunset. You can also watch the evening aarti while taking a ride in a boat. Take blessings from Lord Shiva at Kashi Vishwanath Temple. Have a safe and memorable trip and do share you travel experiences on Tripoto after coming back.

Probably the most sensitive topic, but this is seriously one of the most common. Let's face it, an African safari is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Make it special. By cutting corners you could end up with a very disappointing experience. Obviously, there are budget options and good operators can advise you about areas where you can save. Please be super cautious about offers that seem incredibly cheap - there is a very good reason why they are. I would suggest a 3 to 5 Days safaris with two accommodation options or a combination of the two:- -Mid Range Accommodations (Such as Lilac camp, Endoro Lodge, Tarangire Safari Lodge, Lake Manyara Wildlife Lodge, Serengeti Halisi Camp, Kati Kati Tented Camp, Ngorongoro Wildlife Lodge, Ngorongoro Farm House and many others)
- & Bush Camping. Prices can range from $ 250 PPPD upto $400. All inclusive except flights to Tanzania, Visa & Guide Tips which can be around $30/day (This is not per person, but it can be divided ,between a group too) OPTIONAL.

Many individuals are fascinated by the thought of going on a safari in Tanzania, but many don't enjoy the concept of spending the entire trip in a car. Luckily, there are lots of opportunities to walk outside, stretch your legs, and truly experience the sights and sounds of this gorgeous country for the discriminating safari traveller searching for something a little different! Tanzania has a wonderful climate for the majority of the year, making it a year-round tourism destination. The greatest time to go on a safari in this country is during the dry season, which runs from June to October. https://travelsolidarity.tours/safari-itineraries/

Hi, I think Srilanka would be a better choice, very nice people, great food although you might want to inform the restaurants if you don t like spicy food. The best month to go is January, it's not clod but rather very nice. For the budget it really depends on the style you want, a friend stayed for 2 weeks and spent 800 euros ( hotel + transport + food+ visits + guides + safari + shopping and more) nothing that she had a nice hotel and such so you my thought would be for 2 people you can have a great week for 500 euros. I ll PM you with an itineray because I can joint a picture to comments

Hey Digvijay, The route is not open for now and I would suggest you not to plan it for next two weeks ... Plan wise and be safe Bro.... Happy Travelling !!!
UpvoteCommentHi Digvijay, The road conditions for Kalpa and Chitkul are still not food due to recent heavy rainfall and landslides. I will not suggest you to plan a trip to high end areas in Himachal and Uttarakhand atleast for this weekend.
Though the weather is clear nowadays and conditions are under control, but still its good to avoid going here for now. Stay safe and happy travelling!
