The dusty, arid landscape of Rajasthan is home to some of the most beautiful cities where you can ring in the New Year. The exotic Rajasthani cuisine at Chokhi Dhani, the centuries-old Mehrangarh Fort, and a calming stay in a camp under the moonlit sky at Sam Sand Dunes— the state of Rajasthan will leave you quite overwhelmed with its charming attractions. Add to that, some sightseeing in Jaisalmer (Jaisalmer Fort and Gadisar Lake) and Jaipur (City Palace, Amber Fort and Hawa Mahal) will make your New Year absolutely memorable. The restaurants and cafes in all the cities have special discounts for the year-end celebrations.
Deal: 7 Nights: Jaipur-Jodhpur-Jaisalmer-Bikaner-Jaipur at Rs. 40,999

The lesser-explored valleys of the North East are home to quaint hill towns that will make you want to settle there. Traversing through these towns is quite a departure from the usual, noisy, bar-hopping New Year celebrations we are used to. If you wish to do something off-the-popular-radar, explore Gangtok’s Do-drul Chorten Stupa, shop at the Cottage Industry and hop on the thrilling ropeway ride. You can also visit Kalimpong’s famous Zang Dog Palri Fo Brang Monastery, and witness the wonders of Darjeeling that include the scenic Tiger Hill, uniquely stunning Batasia Loop (admire the Himalayan Railway passing by here), and the lush Happy Valley Tea Estate.
Deal: 6 Nights: Gangtok-Kalimpong-Darjeeling at Rs. 37,999

If you and your significant other are looking for places for your year-end vacation, you can simply take a Volvo from New Delhi to the ever-popular hill station of Manali in Himachal Pradesh. Opt for leisure walks amidst the tall pines of Old Manali, sit by the waters listening to the gushing River Beas, and visit the Vashisht Kund and Hadimba Temple. You can also partake in the New Year Celebrations at the Snow Valley Resort—combining a tranquil vacation with a DJ night is an ideal way to welcome the New Year!
Deal: 3 Nights in Manali at Rs. 8,1999

There’s nothing quite like ringing the New Year in with your feet in the sands, or at a beach shack party. No matter where you’re staying in the Andamans, the island enlivens up during the year-end. All shacks and pubs host effervescent parties that go on till the wee hours of New Year’s Eve. In addition to that, take a walk on Corbyn's Cove Beach in Port Blair, head to Ross Island in Havelock, go snorkelling at Elephant Beach, or hop on a ferry to explore the stunning Neil Island. The Andaman Islands have all it takes to make your holiday as laidback or as adventurous as you’d like it to be.
Deal: 5 Nights: Port Blair-Havelock-Niel Island at Rs. 33,999
