HolidayIQ Traveller Rajeev says, “Heat of Agra city and the dirty looking crowded markets were amongst the worst experiences I had in the city.”  Adds HolidayIQ Traveller Debayan Bhowmik, “Though the city has a rich heritage, it is not properly maintained. There is a lot of pollution in the alleys and the roadways are not that comfortable for rides.”

2. Bangalore

HolidayIQ Traveller Archana Hemmady says, “Bangalore has a distinction of bad public transport. If you can, book a cab for the whole day to take you around, or if you cannot, take a local with you. Bangalore is cosmopolitan and don't believe those who say that you can't manage if you don't know Kannada.” Adds HolidayIQ Traveller Haresh Raisinghani, “I could hardly visit any place, what put me down also was notorious traffic. I was warned to add at least 25-50% of traffic time for traffic snarls! This certainly proved good advice. With heavy traffic weather is nothing to crow about, though it was certainly better than cities like Mumbai.”

3. Chennai

HolidayIQ Traveller Muralitharan Venkataraman SAYS, “I visited the Marina Beach after 20 years, and what a change. It has become from bad to worse. Vendors have made this world famous beach shabby, and dirty. They should be driven away. Cleanliness should be maintained!” Adds HolidayIQ Traveller Anuja M, “The experience was very unpleasant. The beach was very dirty and unkept.” 

4. Delhi

HolidayIQ Traveller Ashrita Bhelwa says, “Goa beaches are dirty and crowded. It’s worth visiting only if you are interested in seeing filth. It’s over hyped, over priced and over crowed.”

HolidayIQ Traveller Mamta Goel says, “Galtaji Temple was not so good, its authority did not keep it regularly clean and it needs maintenance. The water was very dirty and unhygienic.” Adds HolidayIQ Traveller Kunal from Delhi, “The historical nature of jaipur can be felt there. It is a must visiting place for everyone in his/her lifetime. The serenity, the traditional culture of rajasthan is something which can be experienced there. One must visit to chokhi dhani from there to the more heat of Rajasthan.”

8. Ajmer

HolidayIQ Traveller Siddhart Ajmera says, “The city is very crowded and busy. Everyone quotes a higher price for every commodity or service. So bargain quite a lot with the vendors and autowallas unless you want to get looted every time you buy something or take a ride.”

9. Allahabad

HolidayIQ Traveller Ashish Nanoti says, “Allahbad railway station was as dirty and filthy as we often found in north.Same is with the city and heavily crowded as well.No traffic sense at all nor do have any public transport system which can mention here.New ones has to surrender before the demands of arrogant auto rickshaw driver (as i don't find any taxi services there).But river ganga especially triveni sangam was spectacular to watch and it gives the feeling of divinity.”

10. Hyderabad

HolidayIQ Traveller Devdas Pai says, “Charminar is a good monument with dirty management, measures must be taken to keep it clean as it is our heritage and needs maintenance of the surroundings. Charminar is very clean but the surrounding area is very dirty and unhygienic, just watch it and come out.”
