The place visited was very pretty. Taj is the prettiest thing I every seen. The resturant slide your credit card then came to tell you that you have a decline card. One evening I went to this resturant next the hotel. After eating, I tried to pay by credit card. I tried two cards and my companion tried two cards. I was told all four card decline. I told me credit card where I will travelling, so that they would not get alarm when they see all these foreign charges. I have a high credit limit on my cards, so does my companion. But I later learn the Indians tactics, they want cash, Instead of tell me stories, they should ask for cash, I would have pay with cash. The food was delicious and cheap. But playing games is too much.

The place was filty, hot and traffice was so hard to get around. In all the best time might be in the cool months. Beware of taxi drivers, auto drivers or anyone on the street. They are out to part you with your money. Beware. Ticket at the train station is a big hassle. Tourist office is of big help, but if you have a problem, they cannot solve it. The lines are hard at the counter. The ticket agent tried to get 100 rupees out of me, by tell me I gave him less. What a bull. I counted infront of him and he tells me it is incorrect. What a sham. Beware. In other words, beware of everyone. I am still awaiting to meet some one in India who is friendly and not want to part with my funds.
Love to learn the culture and visit some homes. I was planning in giving some family support. But I decline due to my expereince. Beware. Don't belive what they say. I will definetly go back to India. This time well prepare. Bewarrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeee.

In my opinion other travellers should avoid a travel agency called "Bridge the World Tours and Travels". Despite the current political situation in Kashmir (especially close to the boarder) they will try to sell you a trip there including accomodation on a boat house. If you really want to go then get advice from your embassy before handing over any money.
