India uses the Indian Rupee (INR) as its currency. Travelers often find it convenient to use cards in urban areas and major establishments, but carrying some cash is advisable for smaller shops, local markets, and rural areas where card acceptance may be limited.
In Kolkata, travelers should be cautious of pickpocketing and bag snatching, especially in crowded areas and public transport. Overcharging by auto-rickshaw and taxi drivers is common, so it's advisable to insist on using the meter or agree on a fare beforehand. Avoid accepting unsolicited help or offers from strangers, as some may lead to scams involving inflated fees or fake guides. Staying vigilant in busy markets and tourist spots helps minimize risks.
Pack lightweight, versatile clothing suitable for the destination's climate, and use secure, lockable luggage to protect belongings. Keep essential items like travel documents, medication, and valuables in a carry-on bag for easy access. Use packing organizers or cubes to maximize space and maintain order. Lastly, include a small first aid kit and personal hygiene items for added comfort during travel.
