Citizens of all countries require a valid passport and a visa. The visa must be obtained abroad from an Indian Consulate/Mission. If planning to visit a neighboring country then re-entering India, a multiple entry visa should be obtained. #indianvisa #passport

The image of the Indian Railways is rated poor with common complaints being making reservations is difficult or that the signage is only in Hindi. But the REAL need is for cleaning up the place. It is just too dirty for comfort.

The voltage used is 220 volts (the U.S. uses 120 volts). You can purchase a converter at most hardware stores for appliances that do not switch to 220V. Current Spikes are common in india so use a spike buster.

Buses - even the ‘deluxe’ variety - are generally the cheapest and most torturous way to get about with children, with infrequent stops for food, drinks and toilet breaks.
