💡 Travel Tips
💰 Visit during shoulder season (February-March) when accommodation prices drop by 30-40% compared to peak season, and local homestays offer better negotiation rates for multi-day stays compared to commercial hotels.
📅 October to March offers the best weather with clear skies and comfortable temperatures, perfect for river activities and photography. Avoid June to September monsoon season when heavy rainfall makes roads slippery and river conditions unsafe for tourists.
🛂 Indian passport holders don't need a visa to visit Dawki as it's in India. However, if you plan to cross into Bangladesh from the nearby Tamabil border, you'll need a valid Indian passport and Bangladesh visa obtained from the Bangladesh High Commission in Delhi or consulates in Kolkata and Chennai.
