I'm going to be in Delhi for a couple of days, and i will be staying in Dwarka.
Is it worthwhile getting a tourist metro card? It cost about Rs. 300, and allows unlimited travel on the metro for 3 days. Considering how far and out Dwarka is from all the tourist hot spots, would it help reduce travel cost and time?
Simply NO.
The journeys are so cheap that it will cost you more than buy as you go tickets. We stayed in Karol Bagh part of Delhi, and for example trip to Conaught Place is Rs 8 and trip to Old deli station for the Red forth ia RS11. If you look on the metro map, your price will be desplayed in the circle representing that station. Hope that the Airport extencion is up and running now.
I was impresed by Delhi metro, it is very modern, extremly clean and efficiant considering the volumen of ppl they cary every day.

I don't know specifically about Delhi, but when I look at it a travel pass saves time- one does not have to stand in long ques for tickets, look for the right ticket counter and think twice about all these hassles before traveling or crisscrossing around town. At 100 INR a day I think it not worth thinking. Of course it will most importantly depend on how much commuting is there for one to do.
You should buy a metro card.Considering that Dwarka is on the outskirts of Delhi,the card will help you save on time and money as well.Only hitch is the Metro stops functioning around 10 pm,so later than that you will be on your own.
Today Metro is life line of Delhi Transportation. It's offering best service and it covers almost every part of Delhi. So you can use the card and you can reach any place quickly and without any problem.
Just buy a Metro card, I suppose it is 100 INR and 50 INR is the credit on it. It is very helpful, but the metro is very crowded. Like everything else, in India, they never plan for the future!! Thats why they never calculated the population using the metro when they were building it and now the metro is so crowded that many prefer not to use it. There is a dedicated compartment for females!!
Good luck.
Absolutely No. It doesnt make any sense to purchase the card for a period of just three days. The tickets generally cost u 8-15 bucks and in no way u can spend rs100/day on metro tickets.
While you are in Delhi you can also check out a few places in and around. This might be helpful http://wanderers.travel/.Have a nice trip:)
There is a hotel information desk at the airport, just in case you don't have a hotel... I came to DEL domestic airport at 9 PM, and they booked a hotel and taxi in New Delhi. And not too expensive eighter. Of course, they got their commission, but this was good for me since I was too tired to find a hotel by my self.
Hmmmm, wrapping myself with Pashmina for occasions or whenever feel cold is nice. So, try to find some around Connaught Place [CP]. There are several shops selling manykind of Pashmina with various prices. Kashmiri shawl and scarf with pasley patterns on it Around Rs 90 per shawl [and can be triple expensive in my own country :) no wonder!!!]
Upscale restaurant with some Thai decorr. Great Thai Food. We had chicken curry, TomyamKung soup (spicy Prawn soup), LabKai (spicy minced chicken salad). Pad Thai was a little greasy. It's a bit expensive, but still reasonable than eating at 5* hotels. There was 5 of us (3 adult and 2 little guys). We had 5 appetizers, 3 main dishes, 2 soups, 1 soda, 1 alcohol drink, 4 desert. Total bill=$80.00

This huge fort was built in 1648 for Shah Jahan. You enter via the Lahore Gate, through the Meena Bazaar, and into the grounds themselves. There are two huge halls...Diwan-iAm & Diwan-i-Khas which when they were originally built would have been a magnificent site as they were decorated with marble, jewels etc...and a silver lined ceiling! Most of it was looted by Nadil Shah who took the best off to Tehran...including the infamous 'Peacock Throne'.
Inscibed on the walls of the Diwan-i-Khas is a famous couplet...
'if there is a paradise on earth it is this, it is this, it is this'
This Fort is well worth half a day or more to look around.
