Is there a dress code for women in India?
No. However India is generally a conservative country and dressing sensitively is advised. Avoid sleeveless tops, short shorts, miniskirts, skimpy, see-through or tight-fitting clothing. Baggy clothing that hides the contours of the body is the way to go and also much cooler. While on a river expedition normal swim wear is fine. It is only when we are travelling through villages or towns that we suggest wearing less revealing clothes. Non-revealing clothes are essential for both women and men when visiting sacred sites.
