Cost
Trips to distant lands take time. Retailers will find trips range from a minimum of four days to 18 days. Cost is directly proportionate to distance and time. Accommodations often require double occupancy which is an advantage as it encourages camaraderie. A short trip to India might be priced for as little as $1200 (double occupancy) but it is better to budget $4,500 to $6,000 and spend 10-12 days in-country.
