Hi all -

I'm going to be in South Delhi (Sheraton in Saket), and am looking for a good therapeutic massage. I'm intrigued by ayurvedic massage and am leaning towards that. I'd prefer to go to a 'local' place, where Delhiites go. I'm also looking for something affordable. I'm ok if the ambience isn't amazing, what matters most is a good massage. What are good rates for a massage?

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I am visting Delhi at the end of the month and staying at Radisson Blu Plaza.

Any one can recommend a good driver would be appreciated. Thank you guys/gals!

Is it better to wait and get a local number from the market or at the airport ? Are the SIM cards cheaper outside ? I will be in delhi for less than 10 days in the 3rd week of march and just need a local number for that time

Hi, On Saturday our taxi driver was asked to take us to Cottage Industries on Jan Path. He said he knew it well. He took us to a smallish shop, 2 floors, next door to the Deutsche Bank, which had a Cottage Industries sign. Checking on Google now, I see that the real Cottage Industries is a much bigger complex, further south on Jan Path (corner of Tolstoy). Can anyone tell me more about the little shop next door to Deutsche Bank (near Connaught Circus)? Is it a regular scam? I do remember that we could not drive up Jan Path because of Metro construction work. Does this construction block access to the real Cottage Industries and give the taxi driver a valid excuse? (The taxi company is known and used by my host in Delhi - we were there on business. I want to give feedback to my host company who hired the taxi for us)

Hi, We are 4 friends on their mid-thirties who are planning to do the Golden triangle (Delhi, Agra and Jaipur). We are looking for a very good company organising this tour, including the transport among the cities so that to show us the nice spots on the way. We are not looking for a private tour, but to be with other people in the group (preferably people of our age, or at least not families). We heard Trinetra is good but they don't reply to our e-mails. Is there any company you could recommend us? Many thanks for the advice.

Hi, I'm at the moment in New Delhi. I would like to leave Delhi tomorow to visit Rajasthan. I seems not to be easy to leave the city on your own and for example just book a trainticket to the next destination. 4 travelagencies recommend a private driver with car... Is it a good price: About 500 euro for 14 days Rajasthan (included: car, driver, fuell, taxes) ? Are there any other, cheaer options, without risking to be stuck in a city because there is no onward transport? Thank you!! Namaste! Vvdp

I am staying at the Shangri La Eros Hotel on Ashoka Rd in November for a few nights on business. I have been once before but had very little time and managed only a quick couple of sorties - to the Tibetan Market, the area around the parliment, Connaught Place, Cottage industries cooperative shop and the jantar mantar and India Gate. I am a woman who is travelling alone and would like recommendations for things to see or good areas for buying local handicrafts as gifts, fairly close to the hotel. Can anyone advise? I wont have time to travel far and have found walking around alone I get rather hassled and mis-directed. Thank you.

Hello fellow forummers! :) My travel partner and I will be visiting India for the first time in November for 9 days and whilst planning, we have some questions which I would be grateful for some advice: 1. So, we will be flying via Jet Airways into Delhi. I read that New Delhi really is part of Delhi. Is this distinction important in my planning as it seems a little confusing for a newbie. 2. We do not have a fixed itinerary yet, just tentatively the golden triangle. Is that a good initiation into India or should we do something different? We are hoping to do something slightly off the beaten path, not just the usual touristy places, yet not something that may be dangerous. 3. If you would recommend the golden triangle, how many days should we stay at each city? 3 days each at Delhi, Jaipur and Agra? Should we get out of Delhi straightaway and leave it for the last part of our trip since we are flying out from Delhi or should we cover it for the start leg of our journey? 4. Do we have to book the train tickets in advance from in our home country or can it wait till we arrive India? 5. I was told that the non-aircon trains, where the locals actually hang from the outside of the train, are quite an Indian adventure to experience. What are your comments on this? Thanks a lot!

Good morning all, I am landing at 8pm on a Thursday and departing at 1pm next day. Staying at Radisson Blu and wanted to know if I have enough time to try and enjoy nightlife and pick up a few things. 1. How far is the gateway from the airport hotel? Will I be able to make it there and back for my flight without any issues/traffic. 2. I would like to know if any nightclubs will be open at night to enjoy some local culture/music. 3. Where can I pick up latest bollywood mixes music/movies/souveniers. Airport charges too much so I was hoping to find something in the area maybe around 8am-10am. Feel free to message me with any advice/tips too. Thank you!
