The year 2011 is coming to an end and Travelers all over the World are already traveling for Xmas or are planning to visit various tourist places around the World to celebrate the turning of the final leaf of the Calendar for this year. We at AroundDelhi.com mainly promote tourist destinations around Delhi in North India in the states of Haryana, Uttaranchal, Himachal and Rajasthan and will like to share with our readers the trend emerging out of this year's bookings for packages for Xmas and New Year so far. The trend indicated is purely based on the calls received for Xmas and New Year in the last month or so and the bookings completed.

1. The enquires for New Year started quiet early this year from Delhi and other states compared to previous years.

2. The maximum queries were for New Year weekend, while Xmas weekend turned out to be quiet a wash out with hardly any queries or bookings.

3. New Year bookings are still going strong and in fact have picked up quiet a bit starting this week.

4. The average rooms booked per booking is 2.8, indicating that most travellers tend to travel with friends or families rather than alone.

5. The maximum queries are for one night packages close to Delhi at resorts around Delhi.

6. In Hill stations the biggest crowd pullers are Manali, obviously because of snow fall and people looking forward to see some snow. The next in line are hotels and resorts in around Shimla. Some of the resorts and hotels in Manali and Shimla are already showing sold out placards.

7. Another big draw are the resorts at Corbett with the attraction of the Jungle, wild life, river and beautiful resorts. Although this time many resorts in Corbett still have rooms as the total number of resorts in Corbett have gone up substantially.

8. Rajasthan is also a big draw with the tourists with destinations like Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Udaipur and Mount Abu in great demand.

9. Fog in north India is playing a big role as a deciding factor as people are preferring not to drive too far from home.

So if you have still not booked there is still time and options available to choose and book.
