To the Indian viewers who are new here - welcome! I'm Dan, and this is The New Travel. I try to make videos that break stereotypes about different cultures and show people the reality of life in different countries. I've been to Indian twice now and both trips have been unforgettable. It's a special land with a soul unlike any other. Some people in the comments have asked me why I travel in tuktuks and not take Ubers... it's because I want to be on the street and able to see the life moving around me. That is one of the joys of travelling India. I don't want to be "hidden away" in a car, I want to see and experience as much as I can. It's the reason I take trains instead of airplanes as well. I'm not sure if that makes sense... but it's how I travel! In any case, you're welcome to visit my TRAVEL INDIA 🇮🇳playlist to learn more about these experiences. Have a great day...

The problem with most of the foreign tourist is that they come with pre mindset that India is pretty cheap place , they don't prefer metro,ola ,uber etc for transportation but prefer tuktuk but latter keep complaing how a tuktuk driver scam them.They prefer to stay in some cheap hotel in some crazy place and later will complain how becoz of bug they couldn't sleep at night.Take street food 4m some random stall , at where even we Indian think 100times to take food, later on they have food poisoning and keep complain about Indian Street foood.Problem is that most of them are budget travellers.
That's a harsh truth... They are bagpackers and they made things worsen for them... Coz they choose for really cheap things that an average Indian person would avoid...
India is alive, it takes you where you need to be not where you want to go....its frustrating but that's how india is and yes patience is the key. Every outing I've ever had in India never ever ends up as planned.
pro tip: if anyone wants to travel India, please learn some hindi, for example: when someone costs more money just say "loot kyu rahe ho bhaiya?" they will assume that u are no new to this place, and will finally charge normally.
Only if you go to North India, a lot of tourists never go to North India and instead to South where people barely know any Hindi and instead speak English.
@@ziasyeda6645 Probably....but most of India speaks English especially in cities, so they can use English anywhere, that's the whole thing about English it's the global lingua Franca, a Chinese and French could talk to each other without one of them knowing the other's language by English.

In India we have a huge population but have enough of resources, whereas Bangladesh doesn't have enough of resources but one day they too will have prosperity by hard work, not like some other countries who exploit Asian countries for centuries....
Bro your cycle rickshaw story is something that happened to me as well. Literally exactly the same. Got 100 rupees cycle rickshaw, crazy traffic, drops me across from the station and then asks for 150. And I actually ended up paying 150. And I'm an indian!
I am Indian too.. however ,I look at it slightly differently… we are ready to pay thousands to hotels,restaurants or other organised places who will calculate costs ,add overheads etc and then you have to give a respectful tip on top… these guys often work long hours, often sole breadwinners and have to pay for the hire of the vehicle if they do not own it…if you were feeling the sun… can you have a vision of someone who is pulling you along in that sun? I often pretend to bargain and the after an agreed price I usually add a generous amount on top… the look on the face of the person is usually my biggest reward of the day.. I feel if we are so blessed we need to share some of the joy … please do not think I am sermonising .. I used to be different previously.. when I saw their lives more closely,my attitude changed
Your comments matched many of my experiences when I was there in 1984 and about your age. I ended up spending six weeks in India and Nepal. Time is not what westerners are use too, so changing your perspective is good advice. A meal might take two hours, exchanging money an hour. You learn that the bus or train may soon come meaning one hour or five hours, so you learn to chill and read your paperback. The people were amazing and I had very few problems, but it was challenging traveling. Often I would put off leaving my hotel room in the morning knowing once I left the sights and sounds would overwhelm my senses until my return. Also, there is no quite time with people playing music and engaging in activities all night. Overall I felt like it was life unfiltered showing you the good and the bad at any moment. I think of my experience there every day and gave me a perspective of life no other place can offer.
1984 wait 1997 here i come. Now things changed and get local info as indian i also do research of money and people , use cab for traveling and look for food INDIAN traveler and few travel blogger (indian photographs). And good to go.
@@Anione111 I would love to, however once I got home my career kept me busy and have never returned. It would be interesting to see what has changed since my last visit.
I am an Indian who's lived in western countries for 13 years. I have been trying to explain what you just said about India to people curious about it, have never been able to articulate it so well. Such an accurate description of what India is. Thank you so much!!
xRisky Cracking & Carding people with your mindest tend to cheat in India thinking all white are rich and 2 USD is nothing. For a student or a part time worker 2 USD is still a count.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Filming in Delhi metro is chargeable and expensive. movies are shot in metro n etc. that's why unpermitted and unpaid filming is prohibited. it's on an official document. Unpermitted filming is banned since 2003 in Delhi Metro. 26/11 happened in 2008. talk about false information.
@@AwismitRana But perfect doesn't actually mean perfect. Perfection rather potrays the so called perfection which is imperfect in one or the other way. What i mean by perfect is the relative, so called perfectism. For example, countries like America, Japan, U.K. are considered perfect and that's why i said India is not perfect or say, real and sassy. I hope you get it!
An exact opposite reaction to Karl when stopped while filming at Metro. One got irritated when told to follow the rules and the other respected the rules and responded sensibly... Kudos to you..
I am Indian and you made me rethink about my perception about how people of my country treats a foreigner😊 I had a negetive image but now i think we are not that bad
@@jaychaudhary3556 Hahaha, although NE and WB is more prone to Bangladeshi infiltrators, it looks like Delhi is in the woes. Be careful of the Rohingiyas, they have a pretty bad track record.
When you are travelling in India, you should choose Ola or, Uber rather than Auto Rickshaw. Because a Rickshaw driver may charge more but a Uber/Ola driver can't. Use the application for Ola or, Uber. Specially, if you're a single traveller, then you can choose *Uber bike* as it's cheaper than cab.
Please promote local people not the business. Not everyone like this. If we visit any foreign country they also do this. But it's not an issue. Our cost is small penny for them. 1$= around 90rs.
That's right! We should ensure that, our guests feel safe in our beloved country. Let's give them a wonderful experience. May be our streets are not that clean. But our hearts are just like gem. Let's make them feel loved.
Do try if you can have destinations in South India, North East, Mountain states in North built into your travel plan. Very different experiences there than the major destination in north India. But of course nothing is going to be safe till May-June 2022.
Avoid using Tuktuks, they will in most cases try to cheat you. If you can afford, use Ola or Uber. Even many Indians have stopped using tuktuks since safety is questionable. I've had my own bad experiences a few years back, never used them since then unless an emergency. Don't try to eat from nasty looking roadside stalls, even Indians avoid eating there, and you might get sick while an Indian won't since our body is used to local food. All the best.
Foreigners have to understand that filming in Airport's, Train stations are a security hazard. After the Attack of Kasab from Pakistan in Santa Cruz station filming in these places is prohibited. There is usually a sign.🙏🏻
In England we film outside the military airbases and record every flight in and flight out. They even provide a viewing platform and a hotdog stand and for our convience they announce when the fighter jets will be practicing their bumps. 😆 🤣
@@Mrtribru69 my comments has got nothing to do with the people of these countries.You might be ignorant about the geopolitics of indian subcontinent hence did not understand what my comment ment. Its a state policy of Pakistan to use terrorism against india , even their establishment has agreed that they use terrorism. With such a hostile neighbour its better to be prepared.
@@grahamt5924 you don't have neighbour like Pakistan. That's why we have to do extra security. We had so many terrorist bomb blast on airport and train station in past
No he is not lying. He doesnt want to visit a cold place because we have 10 months in a year cold weather here in Canada so why would we want to visit a cold place.
Perhaps he means it was too cold to visit due to his provisions. Maybe he didn't have clothing for colder weather. I enjoyed his video. He seems like a very nice and honest person. And I appreciated his perspective. Made me want to visit and see what I can only imagine is a beautiful country and wonderful culture.
This is the first time I'm watching a video from your channel, I just came across this video from recommendations, and wow! 😂 I love how you see things, and how you interpret them, your perspective. I don't know how honest is all this, but it feels so. And I loved this video 💛.
I just discovered you :) my dream is to visit my friend in Punjab. I really enjoyed this video, and noticed you published this on my birthday! :) hugs from Oregon

Thanks Dan, It is always good to watch your video. The best thing is the way you look at things and experience. There is learning from a great epic 'Mahabharata' - You see things as you want to see. If you want to see bad ...you will see and experience bad only...if you want to see good you will experience and see good only choice is yours. Wish you best for your travel channel.
"India is a lesson in patience"..Bang on! You seem to have cracked the code, so to speak, of India. The spiritual lessons in India are not just in the monasteries, or temples or ashrams. Seen two videos from your channel, enjoyed both. All the best
Awesome and accurate description. I'm also Canadian and have been in India for about 7+ months (not exactly by choice) but you nailed it, and I love it here. Your advice about making friends/contacts with locals is spot on, that's the way to get things done. My only complaint is the constant battle to get the real price, but, it's a small price to pay for the fascinating experience of India. アドベンチャー・ライフ Amigo, bon courage et ओम नमः शिवाय
Part 3: crowds: Thats how I felt when I visited Disneyland in Orlando, FL! My expectations with Disneyland were like what people anticipate with a Taj Mahal and a single individual person, and in reality it was completely opposite!! It was right before Christmas!😃
I just now watched this video and am so glad that you could understand what does India actually mean...Not everyone could get this lesson behind it...Only a few ,,...who could think beyond what they actually see ...🇮🇳☺️🙏
Lol tuk tuk (rickshaw) are problems for indians too.. Sometimes they ask me double the meter price cuz they say they don't get a fare on the way back! Tf
I as a traveller dont pay too high prices but you sometimes have to pay something that I call "idiot-bonus". 10 or 15% more as the local people have to pay. You HAVE to catch this particular train, you NEED a bed to get some sleep. So , OK , 80 Rs for the ride instead of 70. 650 Rs for the room instead of 600. Let the people "win" a little. Sometimes NOT always. They have to feed their families and that is hard enough! Love for India, from Germany.
This is very well articulated Dan! I am glad you put things into perspective for travelers. While I have lived and continue to live most of my life in India, whatever you have experienced is fairly common in most cities/towns. Obviously Ola/Uber have now made a difference for you to not have the experience that you had with the cycle rickshaw ride, but you still learnt something in a much harder way. Don't overplan, have patience and it can make the ride worth it. And believe me, the traffic is what drives tourists crazy. Even as an Indian citizen, I have not yet been able to fathom how do we actually drive in this amount of traffic - it just happens like it's a miracle! Loved the vlog! Highly recommended!
I really like the wisdom and knowledge you share, not only about travelling in India, but also the philosophical/spiritual aspects of your experience there :)
You can visit hilly areas during summers, like North East, Himachal Pradesh, J&K Uttrakhand. We have all types of weather in the same country. One place you might find as hot as 42°C and and as low as -10 ° C
Bc kabhi nagpur aao garmi G na fat jaye toh bolna, Tuesday 21st may ka temperature check karo. 46 degree ya usse zyada hoga.. aur tum 42 degree me hi ruke ho, aaj hi 44* tha
I am not from India but from a neighboring country(Bhutan). The points he makes about safety and people trying to help if there are incidents are spot on. Yesterday, here in NYC there was an incident where a 65 year old Asian was brutally beaten and kicked around in broad daylight. Three security personal in the luxury residential building just 20 feet away witnessed it and not only did nothing but closed the door of the building. I can guarantee you that sort of thing would never happen in India.
I feel very happy when I saw you're reading a book while traveling.Yes ,I never saw a single foreigner or local traveller reading a book while traveling . They think books are really time consuming thing to do and they Fully relly on Google for any kind of information.Let me tell you ,I am an Indian and I travel all over India since I was only 3 yrs.My father always use to read about the destination 6 months prior before visiting that place and I too got my interest from him.We travelled from Kashmir to Andaman from Rajasthan to Darjeeling without a single help from neither guide nor Google.
Just found your vlogs as I'm moving from Victoria BC to Vietnam as an expat for a few years. India is on the list and am doing lots of research so when the travel wheels are well oiled I'm hoping to spend at least a month there. Good info you've shared! 🙏🇨🇦
i am indian ! its not as cool as u imagine ! tough plus becaus everyone in rush nobody is stoping for others even in needful times! its possible at someplaces u get to see impatient people!
I am an Indian, one month is not enough to visit India there are lot of places lot of variations lot of languages different cultures food..u r always welcome just be safe and njoy ur trip
@mns ta wtf? why would people come all the way from west to just go to the mountains lol? they have mountains there too in europe and north america. people want to interact with locals, try the food, and the heart of indian civilization is the gengetic plain. UP, bihar, delhi, rajasthan, bengal, punjab, MP, parts of south india, etc.
@@vijaypadala2291 you south Indians are always jealous of North Indians, grow up man let her Tour Whole India And Learn Different culture, Don't be so toxic mate. And I don't think she can survive in Humid and hot weather of chennai, Bangalore is good place though.
the weird thing is for me, I've lived in India for 13 years of my life and yet I didn't really experience what you have experienced unless I'm also traveling inside India,,, it's kind of amusing to think about XD
India has so much of people,things can go wrong sometimes.Indian Railway is one of the largest network of rail in the world so it is not surprising when sometimes system don't work as you can think the same site would be used at different station at same time. And I think every country has their goods and bads .🌼🌼 You are really doing a great job and I will suggest you to take train from Kalka to Shimla.It is UNESCO Heritage train you will really enjoy it. And if you still has time go to Ladakh or Spiti Valley in Himachal. You will really Enjoy it. All the best and Enjoy🤗
Even as a Indian I prefer Uber or Ola if we've to reach somewhere on time... One more important tip.. lookout for students looking peoples on bike... u know 19-26 yo with a backpack on a motorcycle, if you get stuck in traffic... They will certainly help you out.. Indian bikers always know how to deal with traffic, and you will be amazed by this.👍👍
Sir very nicely explained and u cleared most of the misbeliefs about the India for travellers.(my first video of ur channel.)👍 And You are a Positive thinker and explainer (i loved the lord buddha's example merged with the trains one. )💖💖✨ This is for you. “When things change inside you, things change around you.” “Do not let the behavior of others destroy your inner peace.” Enjoy the life's every moment.
You know there are every kind of people in every country .. in India here are those kind of people too who are making us ashamed ... But we 99% population loves and respect every person on the earth . Btw... Train tickets , cabs , hotels can be booked Online , it's really very easy 😊
I think you have understood India. You are really a genuine traveller, who enjoy the process of journey rather than destination. I can sense calmness, patience, appreciation of local culture, people, etc. in your narrative.
great t,thank you!!! im going to India in a few days, and so excited!!! After 15 years going back to this incredible country! thank you for your words!!! namaste.
You nailed it as far as patience being the key. I love India. I think the air pollution is also a big one to consider...even for those with healthy lungs. Also a few mores items to be mindful of if you're a solo female traveling. But, If you can find it, I agree finding the peace within yourself is the key to enjoying this magnificent country and its people! 💜
Being an Indian, i would not recommend solo trips in India specially for women. 75% of people are really good but there are 25% creepy population who do everything to make other people life hell. If you are traveling solo , don’t go to northern part the country…..
In short! If uh gauys r planning to come to India so take ur come to India plan ur trip for enough days not for too short time bcz india is full of cultures every state has its own speciality so plan ur trip for abt months. Don plan too much for just one day bcz plans might not go the way uh want so have short for plans every day nd m sure uh guys will enjoy ur trip to India way too much 💜💜. Love from india 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Hey there Dan.Namashkar bhai sab! Thank you for coming out with unbiased comments about your experience in Bharat (India). I was there last year in February and March. Before traveling there, I had made such a detailed plan of what cities and villages to visit and what to see in those places. A week or two before heading out on the trip, it came to me that I had to nip that plan in the bud or I would have a very bad trip. Fortunately I did and I had the trip of a lifetime. The people were so AWESOME and the places and the Himalayas so AWE inspiring. I just walked around everywhere I was except for Mumbai and Delhi where one HAS TO take the Metro and train to make ends meet or you'll be pulling your hair out. Travel TIP for the Delhi Metro. Ask for the 3-day unlimited rides metro card. It goes for 500 rupees I believe. That's about 7 or 8 dollars US. That's a SWEET deal for unforgettable WANDERINGS in Delhi.
See , you can book it online without any special ID , the crowded train is just a photo , it's not real it's usually taken just for the camera , I've been to Varanasi , they always stop you opposite the busy road , where I think they dropped you so it's normal.
the images of the crowded trains are not from India...its 4m Bangladesh or may be Pakistan.... bcoz all Indian train run by electricity ..and no one can ride above an electrically run train..
I can imagine your frustration (btw your maturity is amazing) "A lot of procedures and time for simple things" is what India is suffering from We ourselves are fed up with this bs. Common people don't really care about 'ease of living ' part They are just happy to go with the flow, and live
I'm an Indian, it's not pretty hard if you plan it well. instead of tuk tuk, you should have booked ola or uber (prepaid taxi) and book your tickets before travelling in advance. As an Indian i avoid train and opt always for private A/C or non A/C buses. for avoid power cuts, opt for hotels which is mid ranged, they have backup options. Indian roads are messy cant do anything about it so plan it little more advance than it shows up on google maps.
Today's video was really good advice! Probably good advice just for life in general. Too often our disappointments come from mistaken expectations. Stay calm. Enjoy the journey. Don't try to do too much in one day! Great advice. 😉
I am from India no hate for him but he show the train picture does not belong to India if they sit they will die in electric shock and this is illegal and one more he show those picture of small colony types these area belong to lower middle class area and India has so many better place
@@harshitatewari5644 If that is NOT an India train....thank you for explaing. I understand there are many places in India. Some nice, some not so nice. If he showed some not so nice.......that is okay as long as it is really India. If it is another country and told to be India.....that would be wrong. ☹
*Hats off man you are a true inspiration instead of whining you adjusted yourself with the environment, that the thing most of the people are lacking now *
I absolutely enjoyed you way of explaining all this. Actually, I'm going to use it at my English lessons for my students' listening practice, if you don't mind. I 100% agree with you about the way things work in India, though I experienced the same in Thailand and Malaysia, I think, it's all similar in Asian countries, which teach us patience and trust to the world.
I agree. India is relatively safe for foreign people who wants to visit and live there. Sri Lanka is also safe for foreign people to visit or live there as well.

Your comments matched many of my experiences when I was there in 1984 and about your age. I ended up spending six weeks in India and Nepal. Time is not what westerners are use too, so changing your perspective is good advice. A meal might take two hours, exchanging money an hour. You learn that the bus or train may soon come meaning one hour or five hours, so you learn to chill and read your paperback. The people were amazing and I had very few problems, but it was challenging traveling. Often I would put off leaving my hotel room in the morning knowing once I left the sights and sounds would overwhelm my senses until my return. Also, there is no quite time with people playing music and engaging in activities all night. Overall I felt like it was life unfiltered showing you the good and the bad at any moment. I think of my experience there every day and gave me a perspective of life no other place can offer.
Above experiences are true
Alot has changed since 1984. Come back and see it for yourself

Filming in Delhi metro is chargeable and expensive.
movies are shot in metro n etc.
that's why unpermitted and unpaid filming is prohibited.
it's on an official document.
Unpermitted filming is banned since 2003 in Delhi Metro.

When you are travelling in India, you should choose Ola or, Uber rather than Auto Rickshaw. Because a Rickshaw driver may charge more but a Uber/Ola driver can't. Use the application for Ola or, Uber. Specially, if you're a single traveller, then you can choose *Uber bike* as it's cheaper than cab.
exactly, or like use ola auto/uber auto, they have the same prices for everyone and it's reasonable too.

Thank you for the reassuring video. My wife and I are planing on traveling to India after the COVID goes away (we were planing before all this mess).
Do try if you can have destinations in South India, North East, Mountain states in North built into your travel plan. Very different experiences there than the major destination in north India.
But of course nothing is going to be safe till May-June 2022.
Avoid using Tuktuks, they will in most cases try to cheat you. If you can afford, use Ola or Uber.
Even many Indians have stopped using tuktuks since safety is questionable. I've had my own bad experiences a few years back, never used them since then unless an emergency.
Don't try to eat from nasty looking roadside stalls, even Indians avoid eating there, and you might get sick while an Indian won't since our body is used to local food.
All the best.
Warm welcome 😉

I as a traveller dont pay too high prices but you sometimes have to pay something that I call "idiot-bonus". 10 or 15% more as the local people have to pay.
You HAVE to catch this particular train, you NEED a bed to get some sleep.
So , OK , 80 Rs for the ride instead of 70. 650 Rs for the room instead of 600.
Let the people "win" a little. Sometimes NOT always.
They have to feed their families and that is hard enough!

This is very well articulated Dan! I am glad you put things into perspective for travelers. While I have lived and continue to live most of my life in India, whatever you have experienced is fairly common in most cities/towns. Obviously Ola/Uber have now made a difference for you to not have the experience that you had with the cycle rickshaw ride, but you still learnt something in a much harder way. Don't overplan, have patience and it can make the ride worth it. And believe me, the traffic is what drives tourists crazy. Even as an Indian citizen, I have not yet been able to fathom how do we actually drive in this amount of traffic - it just happens like it's a miracle! Loved the vlog! Highly recommended!
I really like the wisdom and knowledge you share, not only about travelling in India, but also the philosophical/spiritual aspects of your experience there :)
You can visit hilly areas during summers, like North East, Himachal Pradesh, J&K Uttrakhand. We have all types of weather in the same country. One place you might find as hot as 42°C and and as low as -10 ° C

I am not from India but from a neighboring country(Bhutan). The points he makes about safety and people trying to help if there are incidents are spot on. Yesterday, here in NYC there was an incident where a 65 year old Asian was brutally beaten and kicked around in broad daylight. Three security personal in the luxury residential building just 20 feet away witnessed it and not only did nothing but closed the door of the building. I can guarantee you that sort of thing would never happen in India.

Tuktuk is least preffered here.
Mostly city bus, metro and taxi(ola or uber)
But like if you aren't going far I just take a quick auto since it's cheaper like if you are only going like 2 mins away

Hey there Dan.Namashkar bhai sab! Thank you for coming out with unbiased comments about your experience in Bharat (India). I was there last year in February and March. Before traveling there, I had made such a detailed plan of what cities and villages to visit and what to see in those places. A week or two before heading out on the trip, it came to me that I had to nip that plan in the bud or I would have a very bad trip. Fortunately I did and I had the trip of a lifetime. The people were so AWESOME and the places and the Himalayas so AWE inspiring. I just walked around everywhere I was except for Mumbai and Delhi where one HAS TO take the Metro and train to make ends meet or you'll be pulling your hair out.
Travel TIP for the Delhi Metro. Ask for the 3-day unlimited rides metro card. It goes for 500 rupees I believe. That's about 7 or 8 dollars US. That's a SWEET deal for unforgettable WANDERINGS in Delhi.
He pronounced "Shimla/शिमला" so correct!
may be, cause its sound matches its spelling, there's no other pronunciation for it!!!
You just showed so much buddhism.. ! Loved to hear your experience.
Thanks, I appreciate that
Love your closure about learning patience in daily life. 👍
See , you can book it online without any special ID , the crowded train is just a photo , it's not real it's usually taken just for the camera , I've been to Varanasi , they always stop you opposite the busy road , where I think they dropped you so it's normal.

"A lot of procedures and time for simple things" is what India is suffering from
We ourselves are fed up with this bs. Common people don't really care about 'ease of living ' part
They are just happy to go with the flow, and live
I'm an Indian, it's not pretty hard if you plan it well. instead of tuk tuk, you should have booked ola or uber (prepaid taxi) and book your tickets before travelling in advance. As an Indian i avoid train and opt always for private A/C or non A/C buses. for avoid power cuts, opt for hotels which is mid ranged, they have backup options. Indian roads are messy cant do anything about it so plan it little more advance than it shows up on google maps.
You truly experienced India.. and you somehow managed to express the essence of that journey.. so incredibly well. Absolutely brilliant vlog
Today's video was really good advice! Probably good advice just for life in general. Too often our disappointments come from mistaken expectations.
