Countries With Visa On Arrival For Indians In Asia || Asia Travel

From my experience and talks with my friends and travellers, I have concluded one thing for sure: Indians want to skip the visa process and are happy to visit the countries where visa on arrival facility for Indians is available. Money hardly matters in such cases, visa on arrival for Indians is all they would like to hear. In this post, on the same track, I will present you top five countries that are known for tourism and provides visa on arrival for Indians in Asia.

Thailand

A country known for its party culture and beaches, Indians are lucky to have visa on arrival in Thailand. There are no prior preparations needed, you can just book your tickets and reach the airport with your passport. The visa will be stamped in Thailand and for Indians as of writing this post, is free of cost. Some websites would list the price as 1000 baht or 2000 baht but I have travelled there and it is absolutely free for Indians.

Bhutan

The world's happiest country, Bhutan, provides visa on arrival for Indians and is one of the best places to visit if you want some peace and extremely attractive natural beauty in your life. Bhutan immigration office demands Adhaar card or passport too sometimes so you can keep them handy. Although there are no preparations required, you can visit the immigration office directly. Remember that you cannot travel as a solo male in Bhutan although there are no such restrictions for ladies.

Vietnam

Another exotic destination for nature lovers is Vietnam in South-east Asia. Vietnam provides visa on arrival for Indians but they demand online approval from the booking agency prior to coming to India. Prices are sporadic and whatever I write here might not be correct. You can visit Vietnam tourism official website to know more about the prices for the Visa.

Maldives

The Maldives has always been a showy place with literally a lot of celebrities posting their photos of Maldives every now and then. The Maldives has become one of the most preferred places to visit for Indians especially couples. Moreover, the best thing is, the Maldives provides visa on arrival for Indians which skips the hectic process altogether. You can visit the Maldives directly with passport and tickets, the Maldives provides free of cost visa for Indians for 30 days.

Cambodia

Cambodia has always been on the bucket list of fellow travellers. The best thing about Cambodia is that it demands only time and tickets from us as the country offers Visa on arrival for Indians. The passport is mandatory for Indians and you can just book the tickets and demand visa at the airport. Cambodia is a great place to travel and explorers all around the world visit Cambodia around the year.

My Trip To Vietnam - Peace in the Chaos (Ho Chi Minh City)

Vietnam has always fascinated travelers all around the world without actually pointing out any one thing specifically. You might be traveling to India to visit just the Taj Mahal but why do you want to take a trip to Vietnam? There is no such thing. You just want to visit Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City. But why do you want to do that? I don't know! And perhaps I did not get this answer from all the videos describing the beauty of Vietnam. This was something that had been playing in my mind ever since I saw a guy crossing a road with a million scooters coming at him. That looks like India though! Would that be the reason? I don't know! And so I pinged my friend Sudhanshu if he'd be interested in taking a trip to Vietnam with me - a beautiful and mesmerizing country. Ah! Sure he is. I knew the answer before even asking him. He and I have made and canceled plans a lot of the time. The one thing that we decided on our trip to Ladakh was to visit Vietnam (or maybe another south-east...

When The Desert Turned White - Rann Of Kutch (Rann Utsav)

In the darkroom and past midnight, I and my two friends decided to plan a trip. But the place should be something that does not dig deep into our pockets and gives a lifetime memorable experience as well. While my friend Harish (yeah! we share the same name, unfortunately) asked me, "Is there a place where you wanted to go?". This question hit me with a place that I have been struggling to go for the past two years. A place which is as far as Indian borders could stretch, as colourful as a child's smile and as memorable as " once in a lifetime " place. I instantly said, " Let's go to Rann of Kutch to see Rann of Kutch Utsav ". Not to my surprise, my other friend, Aminul said, "Where is this place?" and Harish added, "What is there to see?". I knew that pictures will speak louder than my words. I googled quickly, " Rann of Kutch Utsav " and showed them the images. I am quite sure I showed them this image: ...

The Invisible Student

I can't open my eyes. My friend rolls his scooter on a downward slope and the high wind is hitting my face. It is a battle between me and the wind where I struggle to keep my head up, straight, pretending that there is nothing around me. "What are you saying?", is the common sentence occurring out of my mouth as I can't hear my friend. I don't even remember what story or what opinion of his is he telling me. Sometimes I say "Yes" just for the sake of it but sometimes I can't take the risk of a cross-question from him. It is nice of him to be talking with his head turned towards me. But sadly, that is not enough. With the slope still continuing on in a lush green area with tall trees on both ends, a motorcycle comes right beside us. The shiny afternoon is making this red bike glow making it impossible to ignore. The head turns towards us and the guy on the bike raises his visor and shouts, "Oye!". My friend stops the scooty and so doe...

A meet with the Backstreet Boys

Okay, tell me who is this one. I plugged in one earplug in his ear, rewind the song, and asked my friend. That's Nick? He said in a rather "I am not sure" voice. Ah! No that's AJ. Isn't this song great? Yes, it is really! We listened to the song "Show Me the Meaning of being lonely" together on my Sony Ericsson phone which had only 200 MB of space. It could accommodate only four songs if I could balance the weight of pictures and other files. All those four songs belonged to the Backstreet Boys. The four songs I listened to before sleeping and after coming from school. While the mobile phone did not get me enough freedom, the computer I had hosted 80 GB of space. This was enough to satiate my new exploration. I couldn't care much about the lack of internet at my home and just a simple question "Do you know any internet cafe?" to my friend in school gave me a quick answer! "Near the shopping center on the main road". I was looking...

Exploring Kargil - Leh to Kargil with valleys and mountain passes

The beauty of Leh and its surrounding areas has always been a topic of discussion among travelers from April to August. As fascinating as they are in front of our eyes, the debate often tones down when we bring Kargil into the picture. Apart from the Kargil War, there are hardly any places one can name in the beautiful district of Kargil. Honestly, maybe I could have said the same thing a couple years back. I don't remember when I encountered a photo from Zanskar, but I do remember that I never forgot about it since. It was a major influence in deciding the destination and for all the right reasons, we decided to turn our handles towards a different side this time. A side that has not got the attention it deserves. A side we wish we could have explored before. Back to Leh - Once Again All the dreams of Ladakh exploration start from the capital city of Leh. Well, maybe not for those who have unlimited time and can afford a bike ride from Manali or Srinagar. But we are not so ...

The Last Few Steps - Manikarnika Ghat

Varanasi or Kashi or Banaras, whatever one may call it, the place plays a significant role in the life of a Hindu whether he believes in god or not. It's not about the temples you visit but the air you breathe when you are walking on the congested streets of Varanasi. It's about the ghats you visit. It's about the food you eat. For long people have associated Kashi with a sense of spirituality often labeling you with tags as "devotee" or "Shiv Bhakt" but my trip to Varanasi made me realize that the magic that people talk about happens not inside the temples but in the places you would least expect. Varanasi and the vibes I was one among the millions of people who arrived in Varanasi for the annual event of Dev Deepawali celebrated fifteen days after Diwali and organized by the Uttar Pradesh Government. The highlights of the event are the firecrackers which when I witnessed, completely left me in awe of the moment. The greatest fire show I witnessed! Bu...

Your perfect 7 day itinerary for Vietnam travel this year

Vietnam witnessed more than 12 million travelers in 2023. It is a small and beautiful country to spend time with friends, and family, or even alone and get closer to nature in the rawest form possible. While it exists in Southeast Asia, Vietnam provides an authentic and unique culture and experience that is unavailable even in the countries closest to it. In my blog about my experience in the chaos of Ho Chi Minh City, it is evident how the atmosphere is entirely different from other countries even though there are thousands of motorcycles on the road. Since Vietnam has now become a popular destination for people all around the world, people often struggle to find a perfect 7 day itinerary for Vietnam so that they can cover everything and not have to take too many leaves from the office. To your rescue, I have crafted the perfect itinerary for Vietnam that I followed during my visit to this beautiful country. Day 1: Arrival in Ho Chi Minh City This is the ...

A Day's Tale Of My Travel In Meghalaya

It has been a long-awaited trip to Meghalaya. I always wanted to visit the states far in the east and experience their culture. In the December of 2021 by booking tickets for Meghalaya, me and three of my friends decided to explore this state navigating our ways by an i20 car that we took from Guwahati. Since our entry and exit point was Guwahati, it made sense. Meghalaya is a small hilly state with a population of around 75% Christians. This was one of the reasons that we had planned a trip during the last days of December to celebrate Christmas Day. The day around which this story pertains is the same day that we wanted to celebrate and came here for. Trekking in Mawryngkhang Trek On 25th December 2021, four of us decided to do a nature trek in Meghalaya around 50km away from Shillong where we were staying till now. Today was the day for which we didn't have any bookings done as we were not able to find any hotels online. A unanimous decision pointed towards " w...

Leh to Nubra Valley via KhardungLa Pass - Ladakh Diaries Page 2

Finally, the day had arrived that we had long anticipated. Climbing the Ladakh mountains with a motorbike and passing through the top of the world - KhardungLa . The ride should start from Leh and end at Nubra Valley. Around 10 AM, we were ready with our bags tied to the motorbikes and excited to press that self-start button. I had been looking forward to this 40km of ride since we landed in Leh. KhardungLa has always maintained a special place in people's minds because of its high altitude and a milestone that says " Welcome to the top of the world - the highest motorable pass in the world - KhardungLa ". It feels like an achievement to be passing through a road where people sometimes need oxygen bottles to battle their shortage of breath. Down in Leh, travelers who had completed their circuit and were relaxing for a day warned us about the dangers of that road. In the last two days, we had heard all sorts of stories related to KhardungLa Pass which may or ...
