The sweet spot for visiting Delhi is October to March. Give it 3 days to do it justice. Budget roughly ₹7,000-₹14,000 per person for a DIY trip. It is a good fit if you are after culture and heritage and local food. First-time DIY travellers can manage it comfortably, and it is a sensible pick for solo women travellers.

Early travellers
Bought the Spiti map - opened straight in Google Maps, navigated offline. Brilliant.
The day-wise plan made my first solo trip to Manali completely stress-free.
The free hotel and attraction search saved me hours of research.
As a woman travelling solo, the safety notes gave me real confidence.
Finally, India travel info I can actually trust. The confidence scores are genius.
