I have been to India and loved it. One of the most interesting places I have ever been to. I had the best time of my life. Food was excellent although hot as ever compared to what we have at home, people were awesome and the culture was fascinating. But there are some issues with India like poverty, safety, begging, touts and so on. Sometimes you don’t know what to do. I know people will scare you if you are travelling to India so some kind of guide was necessary. Without this book, I would have been lost in many aspects of the tour to India. It also has some Hindi phrases which was extremely useful and helped a lot. The guide to drinking water was a good one too. I would recommend this book to anyone visiting India.

I have always wanted to travel to India. It has always intrigued me with its diverse populations and rich cultural heritages. This book has helped keep that desire burning. This is an excellent practical guide that deals with the most common problems facing tourist traveling in India and how to help yourself and have an enjoyable time. I love the section on places to go in India. The images and pictures throughout the book are magnificent. Some of the thing I love about this book is how the author provides a comprehensive list of things a tourist should bring to India. A list of female urination devices that I never knew existed. This guide also provides practical tips on how to deal with the heat and skin protection. I am a vegetarian so this was a valuable resource for food recommendations. The author provides excellent resource of travel within the country, how to avoid tourist traps, hotel safety and my favorite--where to shop. They say knowledge is power and with this book I feel very safe and empowered to travel to India.

Traveling is one of the most invigorating things, and when traveling anywhere, you should pick up a guide, just so you don't miss out on something rand. I checked out Shalu Sharma's guide and loved it. It not only has a conversational tone, it has an authoritative reach as far as what to see and where to go. As a tourist, this was a great read for my Kindle, and have even recommended it to my friends.
I have a friend doing tech work in India, and he even confirmed that this was an insider's guide to traveling through the area. I especially love the tips and practical information. If you're from the U.S. like I am, you'll find that those insider tips and tricks will give you a bit of help on blending in and not looking too much like an ignorant traveler.
Overall, this is a good, quick guide that will share with you some incredible details. I love it, and recommend it.
