Water. Be very careful what kind of water you drink in India. Only drink from "unopened bottled water/soda/fizz whatever" and do not put in ice in your drinks. Spent 1 week in the toilet after drinking water from a carafe in a restaurant

[@carlbebbington730]

Marianne you are an excellent driver so if anyone can drive in India it’s you. We’ve been to India twice, like you, our first reaction was shock, but once you get into the swing of it, I’m sure you will love it. The colours are amazing and the people so welcoming and friendly. We joked that India will be lovely when it’s finished… as you venture onwards through India you will know what I mean. I’m really looking forward to your Indian adventure. Hygiene is not really their thing so I’d be careful about eating meat in particular, delicious though it might be at the time it can come back to bite you a few hours later! We all went vegetarian for our trips. But as I love spicy food like you Chris I did love the food.

[@TREADtheglobe]

Thank you - we have both become veggie on this trip too 😉🌺 and we have realised that Kolkata is a very special and unique place .....

[@Tenebarum]

"Hygiene is really not their thing". Really makes me want to book a ticket.

[@HDsharp]

And they make 'hand made' buses too! So safety isn't their thing either 😂 India is a fourth world country. Even Africa is more developed and cleaner than India now.

[@jarrac]

I’ve travelled across India numerous times including by local bus. At first it’s a big shock to the system, and your first experience was exactly the same as mine although my accommodation was much worse. After that I adapted and never had reason ever again to find fault. It’s such a rewarding experience and the people lovely. You’ll love it. Odomos mosquito cream was sent from heaven. Nothing better.

[@azeedahhasleezan1678]

Not everyone is lovely there, in fact there are many dangerous people out there...bcuz recently a Spanish couple who drove across India by motorbike were assaulted & the the wife was raped by several individuals.

[@m.entera3196]

India is like no other country on earth. I travelled there first in 1996, a forty six year old white American woman alone, with a backpack and Lonely Planet guide. I ranged from Mussoorie on the border of Tibet down to Kerala down south, although I centered a chunk of my travels all over Rajasthan. I wanted to experience the India that everyday Indians did, so stayed at the same rooming houses and little local hotels that they did, where sometimes I had to request a bucket of hot water for the cold water only shared showers. The poverty, dirt, trash and lack of Western sanitation methods was shocking, although I managed to never get sick. There was barely any internet, and often the power was down so the few who had it, mostly big businesses like major airline booking offices, couldn't access the rudimentary and slow dialup service, anyway. When I got back, people would ask "Did you have fun in India?" and I told them that India is a country that most travelers don't associate the word "fun" with as a description of their trip. It was wonderful anyway, people were kind and the local people I met were gracious and welcoming. It was eye opening about the reality of our world.

[@m.entera3196]

@@curleycale8274 It's cleaned up a lot now (comparatively) and it looks like the middle class segment of the population got a foothold. However, there's lots of things about India that will never change.

Did you really hope to get broadband internet in india in 1996?

[@scaringclaring5240]

[@michaelstimpson1137]

If you used a lonely planet guide you didn't see India that hasn't been traveled by tens of thousands of tourists before you.

[@daveharruk]

Power issues are still there-even in a big city we had power cuts several times (not just a few seconds but up to about half an hour at a time) in 2 weeks. In the UK,I can't even remember the last power cut - many years ago. Also,electrical safety is extremely poor in India with many obvious potential fire hazards quite visible.

[@mattgordon9179]

One thing from the street venders you can trust is the Chai. It's always boiled. If you want and tell people to go away, you must waggle your head, otherwise they don't understand you :)

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Yep. Absolutely correct.

[@mybabylokey]

Very true! The only street vendor drink I had was masala chai. No problem

[@GTwistingTale]

I loved visiting India though never got to Kolkata. It is a country of extremes and that includes people as much as places. My abiding memories are all of supreme kindness & generosity. A tuktuk driver who recognised me from an earlier journey & rescued me when I had an ill-advised adventure late one night with no plan on how to get back to my hotel. He even refused to accept the fare as I had given him a tip the last time. Enjoy the ride, it won't be dull!

[@vivienogden9916]

Loved India, stayed in a homestay in Kerela, hired a car in 2011 there were very few direction signs and no electronic maps, asking for directions interesting as pointed in both directions in an effort to please us! roads pretty manic.

[@TREADtheglobe]

Sounds lovely we are excited to see the real India - our route is Kolkata to Jaisalmer and beyond ... 🙌

[@seraphsfolly]

@@TREADtheglobe you are in for a pure treat. I've done most of that road. Jaisalmer fort is a unique beauty you need to allow time to soak in. I spent 4 days and didn't tire of it, personally. I hope you're stopping in Agra and Jaipur at least. The road runs through the great Thar desert. This is no joke. It's a wilder area. Some roads if you travel near dark there are bandits who will 100% kill you not just rob you. Don't stop for someone. They take their role as bandits very seriously and won't be brought off or placated. In fact they find the attempt insulting according to my guide. If you are caught offer to join them is apparently the only chance you have. Then you hope for a police or military rescue. I think there is a movie about a woman who survived this by doing so. Not fiction, but hopefully the situation has changed for the better in 10 years. Sunroof? Close it if you don't want a big cat jumping in if you drive under trees. Plus the desert? If you break down it can be life-threatening. So those are major risks. The experience? My lifetime best. Carry a huge supply of bottled water and drink it. Double or triple the amount you think you need to carry. Have food on board. Make sure Trudi is tip top for sand. Sometimes it gets swept across the road. Roads can disappear entirely. If possible, again, a local guide is valuable. Mine took me to an amazing ruined temple in the jungle between Udaipur and Jaipur. Not signposted at all. Just phenomenal, like being on an impossible movie set in real life, and it was just us. Please do small legs as this allows you room to recover when things go wrong and to be in great shelter before late afternoon and after early morning. Plus, this is a time and place to smell the flowers and soak it in. It's very much once in a lifetime. Go for it! 😀 You could visit the Tiger reserve.

[@khaidirabdulmajid6151]

The first time I was in India was in the early 1980’s, I also arrived in the early morning and saw people sleeping by the roadside outside the airport in Delhi and near my hotel at connaught place. Years later on my second visit, India has developed tremendously and I bet things will get even better in years to come. Love the adventure India has to offer, from KL, Malaysia

[@zeeqq105]

Same when I went to Nigeria. Infrastructure was bad, transportation horrible and so much dirt roads but when I went back over ten years later it was like night and day. There were no stores where you could buy goods other than local stuff. But now they actually have malls, nice transportation…you name it they got it. I was so amazed. Beautiful

[@dr.aniruddhachimote5941]

I am from India. My first comment, Kolkatta, was a wrong choice. You should have used Chennai as a port of entry and also to ship your van. Your experience would have been much different. I don't know how you plan to travel out. But Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Gujrat, and Rajasthan onwards towards the north would have taken you through a better experience, both driving as well as places to see. I presume you either plan to drive into Pakistan or ship your van once again to Iran or other countries in that region.

[@TREADtheglobe]

Hi - I think you are right !! Kolkata has been a baptism of fire indeed 🙏 But we are often only given certain choices when shipping and it is not always possible to go where you want - but where the logistics of shipping allow - This expedition has always been about driving around the world and getting from the UK to UK - but as you can imagine the world and routes have been very fluid since 2020 with permissions and borders etc. Kind regards Marianne
