FAQ

What About Visa and Passport?

British citizens require machine-readable passports when travelling overseas. Your passport must contain two blank pages and be valid for 180 days after your return date from India. British CITIZENS and most other European nationals satisfying certain conditions may use the online e-Tourist Visa application process at a cost of $10 (US) per person for entry to India for arrivals in the months of April, May and June or $25 (US) per person for arrivals in other months. Fees are subject to change. Other passport holders must apply for a full visa. Note that all travellers of Pakistani descent, regardless of citizenship, will generally be subject to more detailed processing by the Indian authorities, which can take up to four months from application.

What Should I Expect In terms of Culture and Customs?

India is culturally diverse. Respect local customs, dress modestly, and be mindful of religious sites. Embrace the rich cuisine, but be cautious with street food to avoid stomach issues. India is generally safe, but like any destination, it’s essential to stay vigilant. Always keep your belongings secure and be cautious in crowded areas.

What Kind of Wildlife Can Be Spotted Around Vanaashrya?

The National Park offers opportunities to spot a variety of wildlife, including tigers, leopards, elephants, deer, and a wide range of bird species. The ideal time to visit Vanaashrya is during the winter months from October to February when the weather is pleasant, and wildlife sightings are more frequent.
