It’s not a scam . It’s just that local people don’t earn as much as you thus their cost of living is less but you might do the same job and earn way more in the west so you should pay more. That’s very fair.
Shehnaj: What is 500 rupees worth to you anyway? Drew: 1 tea chai, 2 temple offerings, 1 tuktuk ride, 1 dhoti, 3 south indian dishes, 2 dessert drinks and 2 souvenirs 🙏
i am indian, I tell you which states are safe for foreigners North India : himachal pradesh, ladakh, jammu and kashmir West India : goa, maharashtra, gujarat South India : kerala, karnataka, tamil nadu, andhra pradesh, telangana North-East India : sikkim, darjeeling, meghalaya, arunachal pradesh, assam, all north-east state are beautiful. my personal favorite states : Himachal Pradesh, Ladakh, Jammu & Kashmir, sikkim, goa, kerala, all north-east states, Must Visit don't go bihar, jharkhnad, uttar pradesh
Man I remember a time when i was in goa (I’m from mumbai btw) and i was with this american guy showing him around and we decided to stop by for lunch. So we stopped by at a restaurant and they had thalis there. My man wouldn’t eat from there because it cost 200 rs for a fish thali that had rice, fish, curry, vegetables and chappati which is basically tortillas. He took me to another cheap place where they sold thalis for 120.
India is Poor, I concur. But not everyone you see is poverty ridden or anything. Just coz they aren't looking cool or modern, doesn't mean they're poor. For example, the man with that cycle should be a middle class and you're showing him when talking about poverty
gaurav patowary I gotcha I just learned in class how a lot of big corporations in the IT industry choose India since they are willing to work for a lot cheaper and it is because of the standard of living.
We are not able to judge them from their clothes.. A patient of my dad is a rickshaw driver, but he is earning more than 40k in a month, he has more than one rickshaw, which he has rented.. even lots of momo seller can earn more than an engineer..
1:31 I didn't like a thing she said. Just because someone is from USA or UK, it doesn't mean that he is supposed to pay more for a taxi drive. First of all, they do not charge more cents. They charge at least 3-4 dollars more than what they're supposed to and there's no rule saying that you can rip off an American just because his currency has higher value.
Then why goverment charges more when foreigners visit any historical places like taj and kumbalgrah fort it like 100 for indians and 500 for foreigners so its okk to charge high
@@vinay1930 that's the fixed price dude. Americans pay the same rate. But in India, Indians are charged less and foreigners more. That's called scamming.
I'm an Indian but if someone is trying to rip you off then don't pay extra please . It might not be a problem for you but think of someone coming from Africa where currency is weaker . We should eradicate this problem instead of becoming a victim of it otherwise this will keep on going forever .
In Hyderabad,India there is a lot of medical tourism and majority of the people are from African countries. The auto-rickshaw(tuk-tuk) drivers demand 10 times more for these people compared to the natives. This thing really needs to be stopped!!!!
No she's not #1 travel Vlogger of India. She doesn't even have 100k subscribers.😕 And no it's not fine if Auto-rickshaw overcharge because most of travellers coming to India is on a budget trip.
Iam from Europe and i have visited India twice and according to me it's a wonderful country ....and I actually love northeast it's really peaceful there but overall the country India is great
North East is not in the list of everyone that visits India, but if you are in mood for a bit of exploration, its a hidden gem of a place. I'm from Assam BTW.
Nope. A person getting paid lot less in one place is what is getting scammed for the same amount of work just because he is in a different location. These poor people are getting scammed because there is no free market for labor.
They may be paid less for their work, but they also have to pay far less for food, housing, etc. And charging people according to the color of their skin is racist. @@rajkiran1982
So hear me out, Ronit is 11 years old and he asks his mum after coming back from school he needs 4000rs for a new ps4 games his friends are playing, normally she would buy it for him but today she decided not to. She took a cab in the afternoon to go to an event the cab driver asked 100rs extra than the correct price, she was in rush so without thinking much she gave him what he asked for and got "SCAMMED". Later that evening Ronit was at his friends house playing the game his mum refuse to buy for him and had great fun at the sane time there was a cab driver who was buying cheap street earrings for his wife and a local liquor for himself which will make his night bubbly and full of happiness.

Charge 500 for auto rickshaw is not fine. It's like pocketing some money. If some come to India the must be charged fair amount. When someone comes to India they already pay to our government as visa. I don't think over charge is ok in any seance. I am a proud Indian. If I go to any forgain country or talk to any forgain people and they complain about these things it would be a matter of shame. When foreigners comes to India we must guide them and help them instead of making money from them or fooling them. No one have any right lift someone's earnings. No matter the person is rich or not. His money is his money. So don't influence to pay much because they can afford please. Inflation is not good for any one.
Very well said! Wish I experienced that when I travelled to India. Everyday had to dodge scams and ripoffs, on top of paying 10 times the entrance fee a local would for historical sites - appreciate it's justifiable locals get a preferred rate, but the price charged to foreigners is disproportionate and just expensive by average global standards - remember is usually around 10usd

Just don't pay 500 rupees for a cab. Taxi fares are same for everyone and if they are trying to scam you just because you are a foreigner , you just have to become a bit rude to them and they will come to a reasonable price. Personally I would suggest you to use Uber or Ola even for small distances .
North Indian states like himachal and Uttarakhand are pretty safe for any visitor than any other part of India. That lady generalised the whole north India as unsafe.

@Rajdeep Srivastava So? That can be said about any other country. I’m indian btw and lived in Europe and now moved to Australia. It’s wayyyy more expensive in Australia. It doesn’t mean I should be getting ripped off. It’s not a good impression on the country and it’s people.

For number 3, I couldn't stand the shouting over each other lol. But I have to agree with Drew regarding principle. Being overcharged by dishonest people in India is commonplace and westerners should be wary of that, esp since we are particularly susceptible to that. I have been to India and by the end of my trip i became somewhat of a bargaining expert. My advice is to just play hard ball with the locals when it comes to money. You almost have to treat every rupee as if it were sacred - no matter the exchange rate! It's a common misconception that just because we're westerners, it doesn't mean that we're rich. Therefore, we cannot afford to throw money away like that to a petty and dishonest person.
Drew and Shenaz: “We’re going to explain how you can travel in India safely” Also Drew and Shenaz: *Arguing over how much you should pay for a tuk tuk ride*
I applied the E-visa to go to india from singapore. The first time I used the visa it worked. After two months I had to go to India but then when we showed the visa to the counter, they said sorry ma’am your visa is not working. They said that the E-visa causes a lot of trouble. We understood and had to cancel the flight . From that day onwards, I did not want to get an E-visa to India.
Lol an indian degrading india what can you expect from ppl like her, there isn't a lot of poverty in india as some of the western media portrays it to be, it's definitely not America, but still it's not a poor nation.
2 things - 1. I did not understand the point about overpaying. I understand that haggling for 15-20 rupees can be done away with but paying 500 Rupees for a short rickshaw ride? And the logic being, that's just 7 Dollars? That's a really stupid logic. It's like a 45 bucks taxi ride in new york costing you 100 USD. Whenever you travel, unless you are ultra rich, you always set a budget in mind based on the trends in a country. And lodging and transportation within the country are the 2 most expensive legs of your tour. Do not overpay. If you want to make someone's day then set a price which is fair and then give them a tip of 500 Rupees. But please do not start a trend where you are overpaying for small things. Not every foreign traveler is rich. 2. About Indian e-visa. Yes, it's simple and mostly hassle free. But do not wait till last minute to apply for visa and hope that it's just a formality and you will get an approval within 48 hours. One of my friends applied 4 days prior to her trip and got her e-visa rejected after 2 days with the reason being "English is not properly understandable." English is not her first language, or second. But yes, it's partially her fault that she delayed applying for visa and took the process for granted. She could have taken someone's help for filling up the form.

@Judith Cheryl Everyone knows cryptocurrency is not a gamble majorly for the extremely rich.. It's an invest'ment to compete with the rich and the government. Everyone can do it no restrictions.
@Johnny Philip I have got to understand now that. A lot of Americans don't even think about investlng little of there money and then grow there portfolio instead they wait for NFP every first Friday of every month hoping there are more employment. You guys are getting it all wrong. Start investlng.
Can the real Constitution be restored? Probably not. Too many Americans depend on government money under programs the Constitution doesn't authorize, and money talks with an eloquence Shakespeare could only envy.

Drew, The next time u visit India don't forget to visit karnataka and Bangalore. Bangalore is the capital of karnataka. U may also visit the north eastern states of INDIA which almost no one knows about. Why don't u visit them and make them famous? U should travel more in the south of INDIA. U came only to two states- Tamil nadu and kerala. U should definitely come to Andhra Pradesh, telangana and karnataka. They are completely different worlds.
I'm with you on this one Drew. Something might be substantially cheaper than the US, but on principle a person cannot tolerate being ripped off. Who cares if it is one penny difference in price. We should get treated like anyone else.
My wife and I traveled all around from north to south east and west. Bargain tip. Half the price. Go from there. She says it's only 5 or 7$ but if it happens for every single thing you need it can add up.
She said that because the difference in prices for traveling in US and INDIA is huge. As she said she travelled at 45 $ in US for same distance you pay 7$ here which again you can bargain to 4 $.It's upto your conscience what you do at the end of the day. She must have said that because cheapest of the Western are way expensive than our luxurious one's. Peace✌✌
@@akashmazumder8235 Sure bro, I totally get the point. It's just that not every westerners can afford 5$ tuk tuk ride if they travel for one month. It's quite disappointing to be seen as walking ATM

India is amazing. We have been to India twice. And planning to visit some time this year.💓💓💓 Love to India from Turkey and Bangladeshis.✌😇
Great Tips 😊👍🏼
I'm in love with her smile
Just don't pay 500 rupees for a cab.
Taxi fares are same for everyone and if they are trying to scam you just because you are a foreigner , you just have to become a bit rude to them and they will come to a reasonable price.
Personally I would suggest you to use Uber or Ola even for small distances .
Uber is a lifesaver in any country, especially down here in South Asia, people tend to take advantage of foreigners a lot like you said.
North Indian states like himachal and Uttarakhand are pretty safe for any visitor than any other part of India. That lady generalised the whole north India as unsafe.
Much love to drew from 🇮🇳
I love ur vids come to Bangalore
Cool
Jai Hind 🇮🇳♥️
Amazing 😘 India pretty cool place

I think Karl rock is the go to guy for India travel tips. But I love your travel videos.
Yes I watch him too. Very funny
Remarkable and helpful tips. What a beautiful Indian lady as well. Thanks!
Excellent tips by Shenaz. True about bargaining with poor people.
Why you don't come to
Himachal Pradesh or
Ladakh
I still don’t like being ripped off
yeah. Don't listen to this chick lol. no one should be ripped off no matter what country theyb are in.
did you know india was one of the richest places before the white mam came
@@qeawte2243 Tell me one thing 7 Dollar is how much expensive for a Foreigner 😕India is A Cheapest country Now what they want Everything have to be free here
@Rajdeep Srivastava
So? That can be said about any other country. I’m indian btw and lived in Europe and now moved to Australia. It’s wayyyy more expensive in Australia. It doesn’t mean I should be getting ripped off. It’s not a good impression on the country and it’s people.
@@qeawte2243 I think you got me Wrong ,I said That 7 dollar Is Not So much for Americans It is like 7 Rupees for Us But This Will More And Enough to Make A Autodriver Happy So,There is no loss for American and The Driver Will also Get Happy by Getting more money
Love the collaboration wuth a local blogger. Do it more!
Keep up the work drew..
Beautiful pondicherry
2:39 thanks for the food I was starving
Nice !! Love from 🇮🇳
Not surprised to see Shenaz...lovely
For number 3, I couldn't stand the shouting over each other lol. But I have to agree with Drew regarding principle. Being overcharged by dishonest people in India is commonplace and westerners should be wary of that, esp since we are particularly susceptible to that. I have been to India and by the end of my trip i became somewhat of a bargaining expert. My advice is to just play hard ball with the locals when it comes to money. You almost have to treat every rupee as if it were sacred - no matter the exchange rate! It's a common misconception that just because we're westerners, it doesn't mean that we're rich. Therefore, we cannot afford to throw money away like that to a petty and dishonest person.
Drew and Shenaz: “We’re going to explain how you can travel in India safely”
Also Drew and Shenaz: *Arguing over how much you should pay for a tuk tuk ride*
I applied the E-visa to go to india from singapore.
The first time I used the visa it worked. After two months I had to go to India but then when we showed the visa to the counter, they said sorry ma’am your visa is not working. They said that the E-visa causes a lot of trouble. We understood and had to cancel the flight . From that day onwards, I did not want to get an E-visa to India.
Yeap, I remember watching Shenaz Treasurywala on MTV years back, she was quite the looker and still is, great video.
We have poor people but we are not poor nation SHEHNAZ ♥
All countries have poor people
Bhai Itna Toh Aadmi Khud Ko Simple Dikhane. Ke liyee bol deta h
Lol an indian degrading india what can you expect from ppl like her, there isn't a lot of poverty in india as some of the western media portrays it to be, it's definitely not America, but still it's not a poor nation.
@James Mathew yeah point, the rich get richer and the poor stay poorer anywhere around the world
@James Mathew yeah the point is there is poverty everywhere.
Utter Pradesh and north delhi specially near Ghaziabad is not safe ..... Avoid those places in nihjts especially girls
Haryana too I mean with that cloths
No Over all India not safe women
Bro haryana is most unsafe I'm from Punjab and I know Delhi NCR is not safe at night😉
Who said north Delhi is unsafe?

No drew your are wrong
2 things -
1. I did not understand the point about overpaying. I understand that haggling for 15-20 rupees can be done away with but paying 500 Rupees for a short rickshaw ride? And the logic being, that's just 7 Dollars? That's a really stupid logic. It's like a 45 bucks taxi ride in new york costing you 100 USD. Whenever you travel, unless you are ultra rich, you always set a budget in mind based on the trends in a country. And lodging and transportation within the country are the 2 most expensive legs of your tour. Do not overpay. If you want to make someone's day then set a price which is fair and then give them a tip of 500 Rupees. But please do not start a trend where you are overpaying for small things. Not every foreign traveler is rich.
2. About Indian e-visa. Yes, it's simple and mostly hassle free. But do not wait till last minute to apply for visa and hope that it's just a formality and you will get an approval within 48 hours. One of my friends applied 4 days prior to her trip and got her e-visa rejected after 2 days with the reason being "English is not properly understandable." English is not her first language, or second. But yes, it's partially her fault that she delayed applying for visa and took the process for granted. She could have taken someone's help for filling up the form.
Imagine Us Travelling EU and Paying in EURO, there is no Such thing called as BAGPACKERS it's only meant for the EU, AUS, CAN, USA. it's is as SIMPLE I can Put up.
- Staying in 3$/day Cheap Pahargang, complaining but can't Afford to Live in proper Indian Middle Class FamyHotel of 10$

- DON'Twanna bargain then book OLA or UBER.
- BE like an Indian Middle Class.
- Don't Be Whitetrash / Bloody Fake Attitude.
@@jenimarai1906 exactly they are expecting travel India so cheap like some even go 500$/600$a Month. What can you expect with this money. Only Disappointment.
Yes I agree
The logic is simply That 7 Dollar is not so costly for Him and the autodriver will also get happy with Some more money so both will happy
Hey I am a South Indian but I live in Delhi and I can say it's totally safe and fine
Drew I love your vids
Since when She az became a travel vlogger?????? She was a famous MTV VJ back in the 90s and early 2000s.
Drew missed the most important tip about food😏
I am from west India . I can give you a tour in west India
drew binskay is the my favourite you tube channel
It's okay to get scammed because you can afford it 😂
Here before Billy
Who is amaki selly??☺️

Who is billy?
😂😂
Haha! Billy is already here 😅
Drew you and Shenaz sold me. I smashed 🤜🏻 the SUBSCRIBE button ✅. Since India 🇮🇳 just reopened this past Monday, are you gonna go now?
I was in North India in 2019 for 48 days and it was EPIC. Looking forward to going back but that plan is on hold now 'cause I'm running on E in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico 🇲🇽. I'm gonna check out all the travel vlogs you have on India B (brotha').
I watch this on facebook, but still i watch here too, i just get addicted to this channel
First me and first comment and you are awesome bro love you bro
WHOEVER THAT'S READING THIS , I PRAY THAT ONE DAY YOU WILL REACH YOUR DREAMS. ALWAYS KNOW THAT THE SECRET OF YOUR FUTURE IS HIDDEN IN YOUR DAILY ROUTINE. SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE DO DAILY WHAT THE UNSUCCESSFUL DO ONLY ON OCCASIONALLY.. which is investing persistently a little to get more
@Judith Cheryl Everyone knows cryptocurrency is not a gamble majorly for the extremely rich.. It's an invest'ment to compete with the rich and the government. Everyone can do it no restrictions.
@@maryamsuleeman3232 But anyone who is not investlng now is missing a tremendous opportunity.
@Johnny Philip I have got to understand now that. A lot of Americans don't even think about investlng little of there money and then grow there portfolio instead they wait for NFP every first Friday of every month hoping there are more employment. You guys are getting it all wrong. Start investlng.
Can the real Constitution be restored? Probably not. Too many Americans depend on government money under programs the Constitution doesn't authorize, and money talks with an eloquence Shakespeare could only envy. Ignorant people don't understand The Federalist Papers, but they understand government checks with their names on them.
@Diane Virginia Do you know the recent crypto drop I did lost. instead made a lot of profit of about 2500USD.
Hey Drew, you should definitely come to Bangalore in India. Its a way different place than other places in India. Thanks Love From India
That's the perfect video of india, And the tuk tuk rikshaw.
Its gonna take time for our country to be best country in the world its transforming 😇
Maybe @drewbinsky you also felt that its your second trip to INDIA.
Love from INDIA 😇
@trumpy doo do you live in india you are not seeing the daily changes we are seeing here pls man spread some love mate😅 and 6% of indians dont have toilets i am not one of them😀
@trumpy doo for your kind information I want to say you that world fastest growth of GDP in this year is again India, not your country.😁😁😁
I know that after u see this u sure go to Google nd search about this.😁😁
@@supriyomondal6075 Again bragging about GDP rather than caring about the needy...nice ...Yeah it is really transforming ..I mean people are teleporting to work..
@@ayudhray1747 Man do u know that we have reduced our poverty by half in the last 10 years alone ? Stop being a moron. If u start giving u detailed history of India (by the way 5000years old) u may fall off the cliff. For more than 90% of the world's recorded history India has been the richest country on Earth.
trumpy doo better than ur fuckin murica. Fucktard
Drew,
The next time u visit India don't forget to visit karnataka and Bangalore. Bangalore is the capital of karnataka. U may also visit the north eastern states of INDIA which almost no one knows about. Why don't u visit them and make them famous?
U should travel more in the south of INDIA. U came only to two states- Tamil nadu and kerala. U should definitely come to Andhra Pradesh, telangana and karnataka. They are completely different worlds.
amazing Shehnaz
First liker, Commenter & Viewer. I love welcoming you to my country Drew! Would love to see you in Delhi!
I'm with you on this one Drew. Something might be substantially cheaper than the US, but on principle a person cannot tolerate being ripped off. Who cares if it is one penny difference in price. We should get treated like anyone else.
drew, im indian and your big fan but she isn't the no.1 indian vlogger
Whooooaah .. she is totally freaking cool !!!!!!
My wife and I traveled all around from north to south east and west. Bargain tip. Half the price. Go from there. She says it's only 5 or 7$ but if it happens for every single thing you need it can add up.
Did she really just say pay the inflated prices for a tuktuk? She can pay for me too then.
Beeing westerner doesn't mean rich... We aren't all rich americans.
Some of us grew up in poverty on western standard.
She said that because the difference in prices for traveling in US and INDIA is huge. As she said she travelled at 45 $ in US for same distance you pay 7$ here which again you can bargain to 4 $.It's upto your conscience what you do at the end of the day. She must have said that because cheapest of the Western are way expensive than our luxurious one's. Peace✌✌
@@akashmazumder8235 Sure bro, I totally get the point.
It's just that not every westerners can afford 5$ tuk tuk ride if they travel for one month. It's quite disappointing to be seen as walking ATM
but if you come to asia except korea, japan and singapore you will live like a king..especially south east asia is so cheap..our currency sucks
yeah.. you can bargain. In India there's nothing such as fixed price. But kindly don't bargain with people who are trying to make a days living, selling on streets.
That's why I always use ola and uber cabs to prevent from scammers.
0:45 what a way to describe the flow

Hey I'm Somali but I'm also from Dallas Texas
Oh cool one time i lived there
So what?
Then?
India still doesn't have enough toilets.
@@hidigyare8529 Pakistan is the biggest toilet in the world.
Drew, you can use ola / uber for booking auto also in many city / town in india . This way You will not be fleeced
Your video is helpful
wdym "India is poor", it is almost as rich as United States, and appears in top 3 economies.
That is national wealth and purchasing parity you are talking about. Per capita income is quite low compared to G20 countries.
As rich as the US? Who are you kidding?
South India especially kerala
@gods boy yup bro
@gods boy if you want then you ur self shift
@gods boy why should he shift to Pakistan? better you shift to some country
@gods boy who the fuck are you to say that? a supreme court judge or somebody? Even he cannot say that. Most probably a northi who is very intolerant and ignorant.
I love you and YOU ROCK and I love your channel
Though there is poverty people can be poor...... Not everyone is a scamster dear.......Just be happy and explore India to the highest level of your curiousity.....👍👍👍👍👍🇮🇳
