Anyone feeling that India gets more and more costly for traveling

For half of what you pay in Indian five star facilities you get amazing properties in Southeast Asia, Dubai

Exactly. These black money hoarders are pricing people out.

Government taxation just destroys consumption and demand for luxury goods.

Government there dont tax heavenly on these luxury stays thats why they are cheap. Indian govt goes bonkers on anything that has 'luxury' tag to it.

True that. Flights from Blr to Lko are priced as high as 30-35k during festival seasons. I’d rather go to Dubai ko 20k and spend rest of the 15k for staying there 💁🏻‍♀️

This guy Harsh Vardhan has become a Vietnam ambassador on Twitter. Literally one country and maxed out all content.

Also, it is stupid to compare Varanasi and Da Nang and that too new years. Varanasi has grown as a tourist place, Da Nang is still nascent

True. Lot of footfall and less 5 star hotels in pilgrimage destinations.

Absolutely! It’s becoming increasingly noticeable that traveling within India can be surprisingly expensive compared to some Southeast Asian countries or Dubai, where you can get top-notch accommodations for a fraction of the price. It’s a bit frustrating, especially when you consider how diverse and beautiful India is. Hopefully, this trend changes, so more people can explore everything our country has to offer without breaking the bank!

Yup, India is probably the most expensive in the region and absolutely not worth the money you spend..

I just checked the prices to vietnam for 3 people.. the problem is international flight cost. It is so High that the total cost of international trip comes to triple the cost of domestic trip.

I have stayed in Radisson Da Nang. Amazing hospitality, great prices 👌

I am not sure why are these prices to inflated man. I am too poor for Indian tourism at this point.

Brutal - but he’s not lying, India sucks for travellers

Overpriced hotels, just straight up bad infra - honestly a vacation to Vietnam/Thailand is not very expensive compared to a good vacation to Goa now

Why are hotels getting so expensive?

Lately, I observed that Indian hotels are so expensive to afford. No decent chain operated hotels are less than 10k INR. It increases even more once you try booking around a long weekend. I understand demand-supply etc but paying 30-35K ...
