Hello Tejas i am also planning for chopta and tungnath from delhi. So best way to reach tungnath is take a bus from kashmeri gate to haridwar or rishikesh try to reach as early as possible then take another bus to rudrprayag or ukhimath. Then you have to take the taxi to chopta. Its an amazing place and the view is awsome during witers. Please share your reviews after your trip.

Yes they do not allow solo permits. You may get in touch with an agent however, who can club you with other group for the permit. If you are worried about the costs for booking an agent (as they will offer you an entire package), just ask them to book the hotels for you, which you can choose online and let them know. Permit and immigration will be taken care by them. Alternatively: If you are entering by road (the Phuentsholing border), stay overnight in Phuentsholing (doesn't need a permit). Ask the hotel authorities to help you out or go to the immigration and find your own group, with similar itinerary to club with for immigration purpose.

Hi, Manshubh!
There won't be any issues for solo travellers travelling to Bhutan in getting tourist permit in December 2019. However, tourism authorities in Bhutan have decided to charge Indian tourists travelling to Bhutan for the tourist permit soon, which is a mandatory document for foreign nationals entering into Bhutan. The date from when this charge will come into effect has not been finalised yet.
Also, you can find some great Bhutan itineraries by clicking at the following links:

AnswerWishlist (1)There are some scheduled train services from Madurai and Trichy to Rameswaram. Fast Passenger trains are available only from Madurai, where the ticket costs only 30 bucks. Try to take early morning/afternoon trains to witness the beauty of Pamban bridge and fishing harbour. All trains will pass through that bridge in a limited speed. At year end, the weather will be very good, especially at mornings (with Sunrise view).

Hi, Take two days for each city you've mentioned Madurai:- Visit Famous attractions like Meenakshi Temple, Azhagar malai temple, Thirumalai Nayakar mahal, etc,. For reaching Alagar malai temple, Try to go through the trekking route... it'll take 1/2hr....but worth going As Madurai has lot of food shops famous for its signature dishes like Jigarthanda, Rosemilk, kari Dosa, .... Go for a food hunt in local shops and Mess like Amma mess, konar kadai, etc.. Rameshwaram :- * Temples * Pamban Bridge - Take a short train journey from mandapam station to pamban station so that u cross the famous pamban brige over the sea through train { MUST TRY } *Dhanushkodi - A scenic drive from Rameshwaram to Dhanushkodi on bike/car is a beautiful experience u should try... * spend some relaxing time in the beaches * Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Memorial Museum Kanyakumari :- * Mainly the beach for Sunrise and Sunsets * Boating to famous Vivekananda fort & Thiruvalluvar Statue * Thirparappu waterfalls * Asia's largest Mathur Aqueduct * Vatta Kottai - Fort

Hey Neethu! Shillong has a lot of options for budget stays. While booking online is a great option, going there and booking one on the spot can get you a better deal. I'm sharing a link with you here that can help you plan a budget trip to Shillong. Hope this helps! https://www.tripoto.com/trip/how-to-spend-3-days-in-shillong-for-around-rs-3000-59974690b9b97

Goa has got lots of gems..I won't call them unexplored, as what I feel is now every place has been touched by mankind.
But yet there are lots of offbeat destinations: There are lots of beautiful waterfall near netravali wildlife sanctuary, you can explore these place.
Also you can visit the tabshikar spice plantation which is unlike the touristy ones(tropical and sahakari), they also organise trekking to nearby waterfall and accommodation options are also there in treehouses and mudhuts. Apart from that you can explore some of the beautiful forts in South goa like Cabo de Rama fort that offers splendid view. explore some of the beaches down far South like- patnem beach and galjibag beach. these are some of the secluded beach and you won't find much crowd there. Near Panjim you can visit fontainhas area for Instagram worthy pics and also visit the Mario Miranda art gallery, they have nice collection of art works on showcase as well as to purchase.
You can also take some bicycle your in old Goa and visit some of the places, b-live is one such agency that organises these activities. ping me if you want to know more about some unique offbeat options in Goa. happy Travelling!!

In which city you want to visit of Nepal there are lot of places in Nepal where you can visit . Main attractions are in Pokhra and Kathamandu

If you would like to explore Nepali village life and ancient cities, I would recommend Bhaktapur, which is a World Heritage Site. It has numerous old temples and traditional Nepali houses. Even tho it's a city, it still has a village ambience. From there you could visit Changunarayan - a village in the hills of Bhaktapur. I stayed in an eco-community/ashram called Bhakti Home. My best friend is running the place and it's really amazing for a peaceful stay in nature, with views over Kathmandu valley.

Hi,
Goa is generally a bit expensive during winter, but if you book the right packages, you could get yourself an affordable deal. I have attached some of the popular packages on Tripoto below. There are many more available on the platform that you could browse through to choose a deal that works for you. Most of these packages are customizable too.
Besides this, some packages are also eligible for you to redeem Tripoto credits in exchange of actual discounts up to 25%! Go through this page to know more about it: https://www.tripoto.com/collections/credit-information Hope this helped! Have a great trip!
