All the tourist spots are highly safe when it comes to disease risks. You may consult Internet or Journals to get an idea about current health issues of any place in India.

Modern 24-hour ATMs are available in most large towns and tourist spots, and the most commonly accepted cards are Visa, MasterCard, Cirrus, Maestro and Plus. Credit cards are also accepted at growing numbers of shops, restaurants, and mid- range and top-end hotels.
Away from major towns, we advise you to carry cash or travelers checks as backup.
A smart packing is all what you need. First check the climate of the city that is on your wish list. Then ask your travel planner if the city is modernized or still preserving traditions.

Perhaps the foremost concern of the solo or single traveler is safety. But the saying "safety in numbers" isn't necessarily true -- a solo traveler can blend in more easily than a group, and not drawing attention to you is one way to stay secure. On the other hand, we take special care of all our single travelers and are always there to watch your back.
