It was my first trip from Bangalore to Delhi and I was very excited. Earlier, my plans for Delhi fell through for not so good reasons. This time I left no stone unturned to plan it properly and did it well in advance as well as having gone through many articles and websites to know more about the best Bangalore to Delhi flight deals. As it is very easy to book it online, I was not left with other options to book plane tickets. I was a bit skeptical about online payments, but found it to be very secure. As I had planned my dates almost two months in advance, I was able to patiently go through all the websites and compare the rates from Bangalore to Delhi. I planned my trip with a friend, it was also the first time for her. She had set up the price alert features because during the week you may not have time to look at the lowest rates during the week, this trick really helped me. For a week I followed and finally booked tickets with the best deals in hand.
I love to travel and what I like the most is to stay in the hotel, while looking for the lowest fares in flight I could book hotels in Delhi (5*) from a single portal. This made the task even easier, it takes no time to decide since the listing and the offers are optical captures. I filtered my requirements to an upper bound as mentioned. I don’t like to compromise my stay or you can say “my dream”. There are innumerable hotel options that fit the allocated budget. Now all the requirements for my trip were done. I had also checked from the hotel and the online portal for cancellations, you know why I guess.
The distance from Bangalore airport to the city is about 35 km, it takes almost 45 minutes, but it takes just 25 minutes, as there is no traffic in the morning, I would enjoy the fresh air with the view of mountains and skyscrapers. My flight was IndiGo at 6am and I reached New Delhi at 8:40am, from Delhi airport to Connaught place where I had booked, my hotel was not that far but it seemed long due to heavy traffic.
This city was definitely very different from all the other cities in India that I have been to. The people, the language, the culture, the body language was obviously different, but the best part was that I didn’t witness a single problem with people. It was very easy for me to communicate with the people there. It was not much different when you visit New Delhi from a city like Bangalore, as you see all the high-rise buildings and other features of the city like any other. On the second day we had planned for Delhi Darshan, as my friend and I headed towards Purana Delhi, it was crystal clear from the rest of the city. I saw Cycle Rikshaw, the messy traffic, the people with a very different dialect within the city.
