Now a days you have so many online sites for example trivago.in', makeytrip.com e.t.c that help you with the prior reservation of the room in a hotel.
You can check its rate with other sites and pay. If you are lucky you will also get some offers for the room. Do not change your hotel if you are staying in the same place as this will help you feel comfortable and enjoy your stay with familiar faces.

It will be useful as flashlight. You can pay from your phone and not to mention the thousands of pictures that you will click and many more things. Carry an extra charged battery in case you do not find a charging place before  reaching your destination.



3. Share your departure and arrival's timing:
Tickets

Share your timings with your family or friend so that they know when to call you up. If you are taking a flight share a copy of your ticket so that they know where you reached and when to call you. Other modes of travel usually allows you to pick up your calls but when they know the timings they can call you when u leave and when you reach for satisfaction.

If you do not want to drag attention then wear the kind of dress the local people wear. This will help you avoid any problems or theft. Do not wear flashy ornaments, heavy jewelry when travelling.






5. Money:

Wallet

Sleeping is a big no no if you are travelling by bus or train unless you have less luggage to look after. You can tie some of your luggage to the seat and use some as a pillow too. Try not to fall asleep. If you are travelling for a few nights you should learn to be a light sleeper or you can book your ticket in A.C section that has  less passengers in it.




8. Stay informed:
