How the trips are picked: places within six hours of Delhi by train, bus or road (from Tourisma’s curated routes, or an approximate drive marked ~), open that month, in their best season first, with places already suggested for an earlier break passed over. Abroad: countries an Indian passport enters visa-free, on arrival or with an e-visa, with a flight from Delhi of at most 8 hours door to door, in a month the country’s guide doesn’t say to avoid. Prices are Tourisma’s plan for that trip: travel there and back, stay, food, local transport and entry, with its buffer.
