Amazing experience. Great weather. Lovely sunsets and view. I saw flamingos there from nri complex. Did night outs and felt safe during entire night. Police was making rounds in the area and making sure we were safe

Explored the entire Mahabaleshwar within a week. Booked a cab service who'd show us everywhere, but we did out research before. The food was expensive but worth it. Out stay was a small size villa or guest house since we only wanted to rest there.

Amazing city, with amazing places to explore. Food is very authentic and delicious, surprisingly very different from the northern cuisine. The night vibe is amazing.

It is quite safe but off late the night life has gone for a toss so can't comment on that. Places such as kothrud, SB road, law college road, Nal stop, Bavdhan are really safe during the day. Construction sites are probably places you could avoid

For the most part, Delhi is fine for travellers - central Delhi and South Delhi mostly. If you’re planning a trip those are the areas to stay. The other parts are fine for travelling but not very late at night.

Expect stares by creepy men. At night, DONT GO OUT. During the day, one can still go out but be careful! Don’t be in secluded areas. Overall it’s 3/10 safe so make sure to always take a cab everywhere but at night even that can be quite unsafe!

Mumbai is absolutely the safest country for Women travellers in India! 🫶❤️ Come visit Mumbai and experience amazing food culture and nightlife. You can literally walk a deserted road at 3:00 am and you ll feel absolutely safe ( though I don’t recommend haha)
