Beware of pickpockets! Leave only your luggage in your hotel room; always lock the room. Conceal your valuables on your person; keep your cash in a few different places. Carry only a small amount of money and no important documents in your wallet. Have your hotel business card with you when going out – if you get lost, you will always be able to get back to your hotel.

Getting around

This has become easier as the fast-growing network of the Delhi Metro opens new stations and lines (www.delhimetrorail.com). To travel by metro you need a token for a single journey to a particular destination. It must be bought at a station just before the journey, and costs no more than Rs25 for most routes. Security checks and queues for tokens make the trip slower than you would expect, so allow enough time.

Travelling by city buses is quite confusing, because there are hardly any signs with information on routes, but it is possible! The conductor who collects the fee (usually a few rupees) on each bus can help with advice about the route and tell you where to get off. Ask about bus routes at your hotel.
