Monsoon Traveling: The rainy season has arrived, and this time has brought a treasure of travel opportunities for many people! Looking at the figures of the last few years, it is clear that doing Monsoon Traveling during the monsoon has become quite popular among tourists. According to a report by NDTV, this year the monsoon season has seen a tremendous increase of 40% in hotel bookings. After all, why is this, and what are the new trends of the monsoon journey, let’s know.
Why is the journey popular in the monsoon?
Charm of off-season: Generally, monsoon is considered as ‘off-season’, due to which traveling at this time becomes very cheap. There are good discounts on hotels, flights and tour packages.
Pleasant weather: The monsoon brings with it cold winds and greenery, which especially makes the experience of traveling in many parts of India extremely enjoyable. Hill stations like Kullu, Manali, Darjeeling, and Kerala become even more beautiful at this time.
Lack of crowd: There is less crowd at tourist destinations during the monsoon than the peak season (summer or winter). With this you can enjoy a calm environment and can see the major attractions comfortably.
Adventure chance: Monsoon Adventure Sports, such as trekking, river rafting (River Rafting – If the conditions are safe), and offer great opportunities for photography enthusiasts.
New Monsoon Travel Trends:
Rise of Anti-Monsoon Destinations:
While people were usually shy away from traveling in the monsoon, now they are deliberately going towards those places which become even more beautiful in this season. Places like the first drops of monsoon in the desert of Rajasthan, or the greenery of Kutch in Gujarat, or Mahabaleshwar of Maharashtra are in great demand these days.
Cloud-watching and ‘Waterfall-Chaysing’:
Tourists now want a special experience instead of going to the hill station. Cloud watching or seeing beautiful waterfalls has become a new hobby.
Spontenius and Short Tips:
Nowadays people are going on weekends or suddenly by making plans and going on small trips, so that they can enjoy the weather and do not have to take more gaps than work.
Home-Stay and ‘Close to Nature’:
Instead of big hotels, people are now giving priority to a stay where they can stay close to nature. Wooden cottages, home-stays between tea gardens are becoming quite popular.
Remember:
While traveling in the monsoon, be prepared for the uncertainty of the weather. Waterproof clothes, good grip shoes, and umbrella or raincoat must be placed together. Keep taking information from the hotel or tour operator about your journey.
