2025’s travel season is officially ON – and whether you’re heading to Goa, Greece, or Gir Forest, the rules of smart travel stay the same.
Planning a trip isn’t just about booking tickets — it’s about knowing the insider hacks that make or break your experience.
At Sun Tourism International (40+ years in travel), we’ve curated over 10,000 trips for Indian families, solo travellers, seniors, and newlyweds. Here’s our expert-approved list of 10 travel tips for Indian travellers to level up your 2025 trips — be it domestic or international.
1. 📅 Book 60–90 Days in Advance (Always)
Avoid the last-minute flight surge.
Prices spike in the last 3–4 weeks — especially during school holidays and long weekends. If your trip is locked, book early and lock that rate.

2. 📱 Digital Copies Are Your Best Friend
Scan your passport, Aadhaar, visa, and tickets — store them in Google Drive, iCloud, or your email.
Lost baggage or docs? This tip could save your whole trip.
3. 🧠 Learn Local Laws & Currency Tricks
Whether it’s Thailand’s cash limit or Dubai’s dress code — Google the basic do’s and don’ts of your destination.
Also: use UPI Global or a forex card — you’ll dodge international transaction charges like a pro.
4. 💼 Baggage Rules ≠ Universal
Just because Air India allows 25kg doesn’t mean IndiGo will.
Check your airline’s baggage allowance for both domestic and international legs. Bonus tip: Weigh your bag before heading to the airport.
5. 🍲 Pack Snacks, Especially for Layovers
If you’re flying internationally, layovers + delays + jet lag = hungry & cranky.
Carry protein bars, dry fruits, or Thepla (we see you, Gujjus 😎).
6. 👕 Dress in Layers (Always Works)
From AC buses to cold flights to humid city tours — dressing in layers is the safest bet.
Bonus: It saves space in your luggage!
7. 🔌 Carry a Universal Adapter (Trust Us)
Nothing’s worse than reaching Europe and realizing your phone charger is now useless.
Buy a universal adapter — it costs ₹300 and works everywhere.
8. 🌍 Travel Insurance = Peace of Mind
Most Indians skip this, but it’s like ₹200 per day and covers trip delays, medical emergencies, lost baggage.
Especially important if you’re travelling with kids or seniors.
9. 🔗 Internal Tip: Check Our Packing Guides
We’ve made ready-to-use, checklist-style packing guides for:
- Europe Tours
- Bali & Beach Vacations
