Which advice would you give tourists who want to visit your country?

If you want to visit India, firstly, have a stock of mosquito repellent and a good spf 30 sunscreen ready. Then, be careful to drink purified water because our water can be really hard on the stomachs of people from other countries. As for visiting, you should see Kerela, it is very beautiful and considered God's heaven on earth. You should also visit Punjab and its various cities, they are very lively, colorful and full of spirit [this will cover the north]. Then you should visit Gujarat, its very rich in culture and I guarantee you a unique experience regarding the food, clothes and entertainment. East India would be Bengal and Calcutta, famous for their unique foods and specially the sweetmeats. You may want to travel by train to save money, but be sure to do it in luxury. Local compartments of trains in India are not a cultural experience you want to have, trust me. Delhi, our capital, has the most delicious and most inexpensive food you will find, if you know where to look for it. Just ask for 'Chandni Chouk'. Its the shopping area also and you will find many things super cheap. But be careful not to get ripped off of your money or cheated in any way. Best advice, if you have any doubt, don't buy it. And if you think some bargain is too good to be true, it really is, don't go for it. And finally, do not, in any case, carry all your money with you. Be careful of pickpockets. Get your hotels to get you a good taxi service, so you do not get roamed around unnecessarily [so they can charge extra money]. Don't forget to try the local street foods in all the places you visit, they are super yummy. If you are careful and have a trustworthy friend in India to guide you and show you around, this will be an experience you will never forget and want to relive it again and again.

First and foremost: be prepared :-) The weather will be bad at some point, so bring water and wind proof clothing even if you come in the middle of the summer. Also, for the summer, bring mosquito repellent and sun lotion. As there's often a cold wind you don't notice the sunburn before it's too late, and mosquiotes are thirsty! I'd also advice not to stay for too long in Oslo. It's more expensieve than the rest of the country in many ways, and it's not that interesting.

I would say that the United Kingdom is an expensive country to visit. I suggest a train pass is the most economical way to travel around England, Wales and Scotland. I would say that London is worth a few days for seeing the Rive Thames, the Tower of London, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament. Then it is worth seeing places outside London like Rye with its cobbled street, Hastings with its cliff railway, Bath with its spa or Chester with its Roman Walls. I have met many foreign people looking around Glastonbury and it has a new age feel to it. It has a tor worth walking up and a garden with a well. It has an abbey which tours are available to look around. I would suggest backpacker dorms and bed and breakfast accommodations. I know that supermarkets and self catering mean that staying in a self catering place would be best.

Thanks for this info on visiting Denmark. It's a lovely country and one of my dream countries to visit in Europe. The best advice I can give to tourists when visiting Philippines is take precautions when choosing a place. I would recommend to visit the beaches and countryside because it is more relaxing and quiet. The best places to visit in my country are Davao City, Island Garden City of Samal, Boracay, Palawan, Bohol, Batangas, Ilocos Region, Surigao provinces and Camiguin. The environment and coastline of these regions are fantastic and amazing and the life is quite laid back. Filipinos are hospitable people and we have a special treatment to tourists, it's also cheaper to visit in the Philippines, the cost of living is very low compared to other Asian countries. Foods are great especially in the countryside. We have different celebration of feasts and special holidays. It's more fun in the Philippines!

Im from Indonesia. Many times, people think that Indonesia is only about Bali as travel destination. Well, I used to think like that when I was a little girl. I was so eager to visit Bali. But now, as I grow up and has travel to many places, I decided that there one place that is most beautiful than Bali. Its called RAJA AMPAT. Its a beautiful place, just like heaven. So if anyone here come to my country, RAJA AMPAT must in ur bucket list.

Thanks for telling us about Denmark. I have heard many good things about it. Being in the United States I would want to tell tourists first, do not judge all Americans based on one lousy place you visit. I hear this and this drives me nuts. I have been all over our country and I can tell you people are different in each state. If they are native to that state that is. Americans are not simply "Americans" and I am getting sick of that. People are even different in neighboring states like New Jersey is different from Maryland and Pennsylvania is different than New York City and the people in Philadelphia are even slightly different than the ones very close in other parts of P.A. I won't get into how besides, culture, beliefs, language and lifestyles. I never believed people on the West Coast such as Oregon and Washington could be different from the East Coast. Every single state is different. DO NOT judge us all by one measly little place you visit. People are different all over. Even Canada is different in many ways even though we are connected. Oh and one more thing tourists. We tip waiters and waitresses, taxi drivers, coffee barista's and even hotel maids here.

I would advice them not to hear any words from strangers. Each and every country is thickly populated. Among the population most of the people are very very polite and true but there are some people who used to cheat others for money and for other uses. A tourist person cannot distinguish whether a person is a cheater or not. So it is better to make use of tourism help line numbers regarding the money and other problems.

Hi Porcospino, I would advice the same as you mentioned above. I believe I would add to that, before going to my place, say weeks before the flight, learn the language, grab a nice book regarding my country, know even those simple phrases, by there, tourist can have an idea what to expect- people,religion, transportation, food, weather, safe, place to visit, . For health reasons, make it sure, they are vaccinated - flu, hepatitis and the like. It pays to travel well prepared.
