Requirements depend on your passport and circumstances. British citizens generally need a visa unless covered by an applicable OCI exemption. Check current entry requirements and use the official Indian visa website. Do not rely on an old brochure for visa fees, eligibility or processing times.

For a full British citizen passport, current FCDO guidance states at least six months’ validity after arrival and two blank pages. Check the current rules for your situation, including any arrival forms, before travelling. Other passports may have different requirements.

Yes. The trip itinerary says you must arrange your own insurance, and it is excluded from the price. Check that your policy covers your itinerary, planned activities, medical needs and cancellation risks, and read the FCDO advice before booking.

Speak to a travel-health professional about your itinerary and medical history. TravelHealthPro’s India guidance recommends a consultation ideally four to six weeks before travel, although a later appointment is still worthwhile. Advice should be personal to you.

The itinerary recommends loose, breathable clothing that covers shoulders, chest and knees, comfortable walking shoes and a lightweight scarf for religious sites. Add sun protection and your usual personal essentials. Request the final packing and luggage guidance before departure.

India uses the Indian rupee (INR). Plan access to local cash as well as a payment card, and check your bank’s overseas fees. Check official currency import/export rules and current exchange rates; the older brochure’s fixed exchange-rate example should not be used for budgeting.

There is no risk-free way to travel. Read the FCDO advice, including its guidance for women and discuss the route, accommodation, transport and on-trip support with Natasha. Group travel does not replace normal precautions or suitable insurance.

Breakfast is included at the hotels. The itinerary describes other meals at selected or recommended restaurants, with lunch and dinner paid separately. Tell Natasha about dietary needs before booking and ask what providers can accommodate. Do not assume allergen-free preparation.

The organiser’s itinerary advises against drinking tap water and recommends bottled drinking water, including for brushing teeth. Follow current travel-health advice on food and water hygiene and seek personalised guidance if you have health concerns.

Please discuss suitability with Natasha before reserving. Ask about stairs, walking surfaces, vehicle access, room facilities and assistance. For medical decisions, consult your clinician. Do not send medical records or passport scans in an initial ordinary email.

The itinerary says Natasha will share a local contact number closer to departure and can help with obtaining a local data SIM. Request the full support and emergency-contact plan before departure, and save it offline alongside your insurer’s assistance number.

Festival dates and local arrangements vary between departures. Ask Natasha what is included in yours. No particular festival celebration or animal interaction is promised; ask about any proposed animal activity and its welfare standards before choosing to take part.
