Here's the unwritten rule of Guwahati Transport Bus.. If the right side unreserved seats of bus is full, males can opt to sit at left side reserved ladies seat, no women will say anything. If the left side is full and you see a female boarding a bus, then you voluntarily give up the ladies seat.
@@tommybtravelsno no, I'm also from guwahati every guest came from another countries,y our people cannt give some respect saying ladies seat and directly remove u from seat u are coming from long journey can pls say bus name or number ""
Good thing was done by the conductor of the bus that he came and told you about it politely and even better was that you said 'Maaf kijiye'. Shows your respect towards our local laws and respect to the conductor. Overall the situation worked out well. Amazing. Keep it up and enjoy rest of your trip.
Yeah I agree, it all went quite well :) As many have pointed out, I probably thought it was a bigger deal than it actually was. Apparently it happens often, even with local people. Hearing that made me feel better about it as well. Thanks :)

What a nice and emphatic person you are. I always watch videos of foreign travelers in India and they mostly criticize this type of situations. I live in NJ and most of my good friends are Indians. I can’t wait to visit India.
@@tommybtravels Any public transport left side seats for reserved for ladies in India, be it in buses or train or metro railway. Also don't jump on water logged roads u don't know in rainy seasons, there could be manhole. Also don't touch the electric post in water logged roads in rainy season.
Reserved ladies seats are very common in buses in India. Normally it is written very clearly above the seats. In cities like Mumbai it is written both in English and Marathi.
Thanks for coming to Guwahati Buddy. I know its lil difficult dealing with people down here. Really appreciate the way you considered and portrait the city❤
Hi, you will find in most of the buses in India certain numbers of seats or all the seats on the right side are reserved for ladies, similarly, 2 seats for senior citizens and 2 seats for specially abled persons are also reserved, but so long they are vacant you may seat there. Enjoy your trip
@@jamesmawlong486 it's not congested unless you're traveling at the exact time when everyone's going to their offices or leaving their offices or if there's some city-wide festival going on.
As a citizen of Guwahati, I can second your opinion about the uber and ola services here. Its incredibly frustrating and I always try to avoid using them whenever possible. Anyway, hope you have a great time here!
Yea the uber and rapido services are 100% terrible i have experienced it many times myself too In my whole life have i ever come across uber bargaining over the fair price The concern organization should do something about it.
Uber and Ola service at Guwahati is terrible. Whenever I visit Guwahati and after landing when I ask for Uber or Ola they will bargain with us like offline they ll take or either they ll ask us to cancel the trip 😢. Sad experience I am from Arunachal Pradesh. The social minded people of Guwahati so discouraged such ill practices. Otherwise, Guwahati is a nice place to live.
I love how you can survive here by just speaking a few basic hindi words! It's impressive how you learned them. Ubers i believe are a trouble mostly everywhere. Enjoy your stay here!
No issue dude,, I am from Assam and it happened with me when i visited Guwahati for the first time 😂😂. So far you are in the best city of North East, amazing city with amazing people nothing to worry about just enjoy your moment.....and thanks for visiting Assam which is usually ignored by many bloggers for being a bit far from the rest of India.
Unlike other metropolitan cities in india, guwahati has a pleasant climate (except the rainy days😅)..... The traffic is also less than other big cities
Oh Tommy I actually felt so bad you had to go through all the hassle of taking the public transport. I swear Uber drivers in Guwahati are annoying .They will cancel on you especially if you have chosen to pay online. I always choose 'pay by cash'option in Guwahati. Thats when these drivers don't cancel. P. S - If I would have got the chance to show you around I would have taken you to some lovely spots.
@@manannaik1341 how many times will he complaint. The whole country is such, Lazy people everywhere. They want more for less. Thats why our country is so dirty, lazy
Hey Tommy, I'm from Maharashtra, India but I would love to see your more volgs from North East India as most foreigne vloggers for now roaming around big cities only and I would love to see North East getting attention like other Indian territories. There is a lot explore in the north east specifically natural beauty. I wish you good luck & safe journey from me and my fellow Indians. Lots of love to you from India ❤
@powerindrajeet.d Well a friendly suggestion to you after watching Tommy's thrilling blogs, why don't you yourself with your friends and family make a plan and book a NE package tour specially in winter if you love NE so much and inquisitive about what's been unexplored. Why always it's like only foreign bloggers like our Tommy and a few more had to show the magnificent beauty and explore the hidden gems of North East to our own Domestic tourists for which they are totally unknown till date. Isn't it sad that foreign bloggers now letting Indians know about their own country (India) through their blogs. And we Indians find their blogs interesting and loaded with nice comments. But hesitate to come here even today. Why so?? That Era is gone sir. Now NE is getting developed at a very rapid pace be it connectivity, infrastructure, Healthcare, Tourism, Education and much more and also getting focus in mainland India. specially in Assam and Guwahati being the largest of NE cities is getting new look under smart city projects thanl it was 10 years back. So don't bother so much, just come out of that so called "negative perception" about NE which bothers many to come and explore. I am sure you will have a life time experience to see the unmatched beauty and unparalleled hospitality of local people here in Assam and other NE states and indulge yourself amidst nature's kaleidoscope and intoxicating fragrance of Tea Gardens 🍵 in Assam and adventurous wild life. Request Tommy also come out of city life and explore the wild scenario here in Assam if you are in Assam. Your blog us really inspiring. Thank you 😊 👋 🙏
Brother do not walk on the roads filled with water because in rainy season electric wires breaks down and fall on the road, therefore electric current will be over there... Be careful brother love from #india 🇮🇳
That's not a big deal mate. Even we locals do that mistakes sometime. And traveling by local transportation is quite good rather than Uber n all, so don't worry. Enjoy your trip. And don't forget to try Pork, Assamese Thali, and Doi. ❤️
Info: Rules for city bus in Guwahati is that the first 4 rows in the right side are reserved for ladies. And the left 2 are reserved for senior citizens.
I exprienced many times that when you call Uber taxi, they are not coming to the spot you call them. They wait at other places, convinient place for them for various reasons, and if you don't get to where the taxi is waiting, they will leave after few minutes waiting and you will be charged penalty for no show. I didn't know that was an Indian Uber rule. Charged No-show penalty numerous times while I was in India.
Surprising to see Gawahati, so developed.. When I visited almost 15 yrs ago, it was bit reserved and more kinda restricted with getting sim cards, doing open vlogs, etc.. Now it seems like just an another metro!! Wow.. Welcome to India.. Enjoy mate...
I am also from North Eastern, and such things are very common in public bus transport, mostly the conductor ask you to leave ladies seat when the seat is needed,😅 but mostly even conductor don't care. Hope you enjoy the North East🇮🇳👍
When I was in Mumbai was rushing for the metro and jumped on the closest car, I had not noticed it was for women only. No one said anything until after a couple of stops I get talking to one of the ladies who told me. The other ladies just laughed when they seen the shock on my face, I got out at the next stop as long as your polite and its a genuine mistake people will understand
It’s better to hire cabs from local tour operators which are reliable. Taking such cabs for 8hrs or as per your convenience is really helpful and reliable. Saves you the headache of OLA and UBER.
Thanks hah :) Though I am starting to understand why people who post videos on UA-cam stop responding to comments. Many comments are rude, negative, criticisms that are just wrong / factually inaccurate, etc. Others are positive but just generic like “Love from x,” which is nice, but there’s not much to say in response to that other than to like it :) I do hope I’m always able to reply to comments that add something interesting to the conversation.

Not a big deal at all. If it is empty you can surely sit on ladies' seat so long as there's no woman waiting to sit there. There is no segregation as such. It's more of reservation.
Hi Tommy, thank you very much for visiting our native place Guwahati, Assam, God bless you mate, hope you had great time there, please visit other state of NE India, you will never regret for sure....thank you, Nabajit/Madhumita
I once boarded a late train in Mumbai heading to the suburbs where I was staying. It was late and I was concerned I had taken the wrong train, as I ran and jump on to the train without confirming its destination. I asked a girl seated nearby and she confirmed I was in the right train. It was in this moment I saw a man holding on to the train from the outside literally hanging out of the open door (trains there run with open doors). He peeked inside staring with angry eyes at me. Suddently he rushes inside charging towards me - shouting at me in hindi. It was in this moment that I noticed the guy was wearing a uniform from the train company. The girl turn to me and said: "he is telling you that you are in the wrong train carriage. This is for women only". 😂
Hey Tommy, great video! Showing the beauty of Northeast India❤ Please do visit Agartala, the capital city of Tripura and also the second best city after Guwahati in Northeast 🙏 Wish you a happy stay in India ❤
Seeming calmer,.. content great, sometimes India thrills and other time s drains your soul, I note you are getting it now, which will enrich your travels, and improve content.. exellent stuff Tom
Yeah this was a pleasant day, still have some soul drainers which I’m trying to handle better. Still need to get to one of the beach destinations you mentioned before hah. Though I might from now on do two months max in India, mix of city, countryside, and two or more distinct regions, and then go to beaches in Thailand or somewhere like that. So I’m still figuring it out hah. Live and learn. Thanks for the kind words though :)
It's been raining in Assam and NE for the past 2 weeks.. So it's going to be dirty around the streets but the weather will be cool and pleasant. Thanks for visiting North East.. You will find amazing people and amazing places
thanks for promoting public transportation, no matter where. Bharath to go from Developing to Developed country, people have to realize importance of public transport.
😂 that happened to me and my friend while traveling on a bus in Guwahati, I think we sat in the wrong seat , then there came 2 uncle's who were talking about something about the seat , we didn't understand the language , we had to give up the seat,had a good laugh later .
When i went to Guwahati for the first I did the same mistake on the bus sitting on the ladies seat then i noticed later on😅but its okay,the more we travel the more we get to knew and get the experience, Keep Traveling ❤❤
Don't worry, I also do the same mistakes frequently.🙂 While you're in Northeast, don't forget to step into all the seven sisters!😊 And also explore the scenic beauty of Assam throught the railway❤ Best wishes✨
All seven sisters via railway would be phenomenal, might take a bit of time though. I knew India is a big country but I didn’t realize how big the northeast is too :)
@@tommybtravels actually Northeast India is not fully connected by rail although you can go to all Northeast states by road or by plane only Guwahati and Agartala have rail for Arunachal you can go up to Dibrugarh
Many state run as well as private bus services put a sign for the ladies and general seats, just above the windows section. From next time onwards try to search those signs or ask the bus conductor for a proper seat. Its a very usual and normal incident for the daily commuters specially for the gents to have been seated in the ladies section, unless a lady passenger boards the bus. Sometimes it happens with the ladies too. So no need to worry about it. Just chill and enjoy your trip. ❤❤❤❤
I am from south of India , I have no idea of what north East is about too but after your videos I am getting some knowledge of it. Great work keep doing bro I like very much❤🎉
I have visited India many times for my work and this one thing I have learned through my experience that one can never trust the taxi services. There are infinite reasons that your taxi reservation will get cancelled just an hour before the scheduled departure. . . . weather, some religious fest, some local election, traffic, too early in the morning, too late in the evening, no drivers available, etc. and etc.
I'm such a glad for you bro.. I didn't know you really answered all your friends in your comment section..& I'm totally impressed ❤️ ..also I'm your new subscriber.. Thank you for coming to India ❤️... You are always welcome ❤️
Hii bro..welcome to Assam.. it's not a big deal..even we do mistakes..ladies can sit in everywhere but only men cannot sit on the ladies reserved seats..hope you enjoy the trip❤❤❤
Yes the uber services in Guwahati sucks,experienced it myself 3 times. They even cancel in the last minute, they even waited for me to cancel so that they won't have to bear the cancellation charges.
Don't worry it happens with every person both local and foreigner, who visit first time to this city. It is usual !! 😁 You can sit there as long as no female is standing. 😊
Glad to see a foreign blogger shedding some light into the beautiful North Eastern region of India. It's nothing like the mainland. As a proud Assamese, I suggest you travel towards the "Upper Assam" region which has a much more authentic feel to Assamese culture. Thanks for visiting the North East anyway!! Big ups to you!
He was so gentle to apologise immediately rather than contesting the rule and he apologized in Hindi as well to make it convenient for the lady to understand...once the very situation happened to me as well since I was unaware of the rule...
Be calm brother..... 🇮🇳India is super diverse... Also sometimes tough.... Sometimes very smooth.... Understand some basic things... To deal with situation... Language problem are always there.....sooner u will be adjust to this..... Enjoy ur time bro.... Visit "kamakhya mata temple" Enjoy local food etc
Bro if you already stepped your foot in India, there were be lots of amazing things you will see BUT chaos and embarrassing things will also waiting for you. So be ready and avoid scams lol
Tommy we Indian people are so mindless don't worry about the people what they told you.. Stay with your trueness and go head in your business 💗 Love from Assam India.
Bro... Traveling in bus was quite nostalgic. Anyway that's much affordable here. Northeastern states are just amazing to explore.Enjoy your trip...🤘🤞 Come to Odisha, India.🙂
I have been to Gauhati two weeks ago for CUET exam. It was my first time in Gauhati and i faced the same situation, sitting on ladies seat without realising it until a woman told me 😂😂
Don't feel embarassed bro,even us do that when there is no one in the sit and cause we are from Assam who sits beside us feel comfortable... thats not a big problem,i know you are from a different country and you have more manners and you follow the rules of your country that's why you felt a little bit embaressed by the way welcome to Assam ❤
I mean how can you be so nice to people. Like even you read each and every comment. It attracts people to watch ur video. Since everyone gets to know that you read their interactions
Be **very** careful of electric poles surrounded by puddles of water in the Indian monsoon. They can lack proper earthing and can be very dangerous. Stay as far away as you can and take a different route if possible.
Want more vlogs bro.... And i wanna give you a target Try to explore each and every state of india..it will take time Bit you will really understand what an incredible country india is 🇮🇳😊
You sat there because it was empty and there is nothing wrong in that. You got up very politely, it is a regular thing to do. Locals do it all the time.... But the local boy sitting behind could have also offered his seat to the lady imo.
That’s not a big deal Tommy.. it is okay to sit in ladies seat if there is no other lady standing in the bus.. it’s not a crime. Btw welcome to Assam and hope you enjoyed your stay in Assam. This is rainy season in here so may be you will a bit uncomfortable in Assam 😢
Just a quick clarification. The seating is not segregated in the buses. Certain seats are just reserved for women (as a consideration, courtesy). The women are free to use any of the non-reserved seats as well. So if you find a women in the non-reserved section, it’s perfectly fine to sit next to her.
Here's the unwritten rule of Guwahati Transport Bus..
If the right side unreserved seats of bus is full, males can opt to sit at left side reserved ladies seat, no women will say anything. If the left side is full and you see a female boarding a bus, then you voluntarily give up the ladies seat.
Well said, thanks for sharing the rules :)

Still need to get to one of the beach destinations you mentioned before hah. Though I might from now on do two months max in India, mix of city, countryside, and two or more distinct regions, and then go to beaches in Thailand or somewhere like that.
So I’m still figuring it out hah. Live and learn. Thanks for the kind words though :)
It's been raining in Assam and NE for the past 2 weeks.. So it's going to be dirty around the streets but the weather will be cool and pleasant. Thanks for visiting North East.. You will find amazing people and amazing places
Yeah roads are definitely muddy, enjoying it though :)
classic NE weather tbh nothing to be surprised about
U r our guest ... Thats not a big issue .. u r good and very jolly person . We welcome u alwz . 🙏🙏🙏🙏
thanks for promoting public transportation, no matter where. Bharath to go from Developing to Developed country, people have to realize importance of public transport.
Welcome to Nepal brother, it’s a beautiful country with peaceful and friendly people 🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵
Nepal is definitely super high on the list :)
Lol
@@pandasa4519 what lol? sadak chap🤣🤣
😂 that happened to me and my friend while traveling on a bus in Guwahati, I think we sat in the wrong seat , then there came 2 uncle's who were talking about something about the seat , we didn't understand the language , we had to give up the seat,had a good laugh later .
When i went to Guwahati for the first I did the same mistake on the bus sitting on the ladies seat then i noticed later on😅but its okay,the more we travel the more we get to knew and get the experience, Keep Traveling ❤❤
Hah whoops, honest mistakes happen :)
You are a real gentleman. You need not to say sorry for that. It may happens sometimes.
Dear ,don't touch electric pole during rainy season in India 😊
Bro it's not a big deal... Please don't feel bad about it❤
Okay I feel better about it now, thanks for letting me know it’s not a big deal :)
Don't worry, I also do the same mistakes frequently.🙂
While you're in Northeast, don't forget to step into all the seven sisters!😊
And also explore the scenic beauty of Assam throught the railway❤
Best wishes✨
All seven sisters via railway would be phenomenal, might take a bit of time though.
I knew India is a big country but I didn’t realize how big the northeast is too :)
@@tommybtravels actually Northeast India is not fully connected by rail although you can go to all Northeast states by road or by plane only Guwahati and Agartala have rail for Arunachal you can go up to Dibrugarh
Many state run as well as private bus services put a sign for the ladies and general seats, just above the windows section. From next time onwards try to search those signs or ask the bus conductor for a proper seat. Its a very usual and normal incident for the daily commuters specially for the gents to have been seated in the ladies section, unless a lady passenger boards the bus. Sometimes it happens with the ladies too. So no need to worry about it. Just chill and enjoy your trip. ❤❤❤❤
Interesting, good to know.
Thanks :)
I am from south of India , I have no idea of what north East is about too but after your videos I am getting some knowledge of it. Great work keep doing bro I like very much❤🎉
I have visited India many times for my work and this one thing I have learned through my experience that one can never trust the taxi services. There are infinite reasons that your taxi reservation will get cancelled just an hour before the scheduled departure. . . . weather, some religious fest, some local election, traffic, too early in the morning, too late in the evening, no drivers available, etc. and etc.
I'm such a glad for you bro.. I didn't know you really answered all your friends in your comment section..& I'm totally impressed ❤️ ..also I'm your new subscriber.. Thank you for coming to India ❤️... You are always welcome ❤️
Thanks :) ❤️
Hii bro..welcome to Assam.. it's not a big deal..even we do mistakes..ladies can sit in everywhere but only men cannot sit on the ladies reserved seats..hope you enjoy the trip❤❤❤
Ahh now I understand. Thanks for letting me know :)
You have reacted more than you should. In India, I have never heard anybody apologize.
No harm in saying maaf kijiye in this situation from my perspective :)
@@tommybtravels you are a nice man Tommy.
Brother If you stay in India for 1 year and keep making videos on UA-cam, then your 2 million subscribers will be confirmed 👍👍👍🇮🇳
Yes the uber services in Guwahati sucks,experienced it myself 3 times. They even cancel in the last minute, they even waited for me to cancel so that they won't have to bear the cancellation charges.
Don't worry it happens with every person both local and foreigner, who visit first time to this city. It is usual !! 😁 You can sit there as long as no female is standing. 😊
Good to know, thanks for the info :)
❤️No problem bro❤
Nice vlog..keep continue❤
Thanks :) ❤️
Glad to see a foreign blogger shedding some light into the beautiful North Eastern region of India. It's nothing like the mainland. As a proud Assamese, I suggest you travel towards the "Upper Assam" region which has a much more authentic feel to Assamese culture. Thanks for visiting the North East anyway!! Big ups to you!
Definitely will next time, thanks for the tip :)
Thanks! :)

He was so gentle to apologise immediately rather than contesting the rule and he apologized in Hindi as well to make it convenient for the lady to understand...once the very situation happened to me as well since I was unaware of the rule...
It's okay bro , i am very happy that you are coming india , enjoy and enjoy your journey in India, must welcome bro ❤️, you are a very good vlogger ❤

Interesting. Thanks for your thoughts :)
Bro if you already stepped your foot in India, there were be lots of amazing things you will see BUT chaos and embarrassing things will also waiting for you. So be ready and avoid scams lol
Haha yeah so true, was quite an embarrassing experience😂
@@tommybtravelsthat's the least embarrassing thing that can happen , the conductor was super polite and even apologized to u in hindi
You are a good man brother ❤❤
In Indore City buses, Front half is reserved for ladies.
Other half is unreserved.
3:09 oh geezzz.. i had no Idea about the seat and the local guy behind sitting chilled😂😂

@@tommybtravelsAre you still in Guwahati?
Not a biggie. Its very common, atleast in Kolkata, WB.
Yeah thats not a Big deal Brother. God bless you Brother 😊
It's a silly mistake. Btw thanks for coming to Guwahati, Assam❤️
Nice man I am from India LOVE you 😁❤
Aw thanks man
Me bharat se pyar karta hoo, Jai Hind 🫡🇮🇳

Welcome India bro ❤❤
Brother you should come to Arunachal Pradesh..you won't regret coming to Arunachal Pradesh.
I think I will be on this trip / soon! Which places should I visit there? :)
@@tommybtravels come to Mizoram,,,Aizawl,,,its a beautiful hill state
Bro it's not a big deal.... Please don't feel bad about it... it's not a crime❤❤
Funny 😂
Don't feel embarassed bro,even us do that when there is no one in the sit and cause we are from Assam who sits beside us feel comfortable... thats not a big problem,i know you are from a different country and you have more manners and you follow the rules of your country that's why you felt a little bit embaressed by the way welcome to Assam ❤
Hah yeah was a bit embarrassing, I understand now and feel better now though. Thanks for explaining :)
I mean how can you be so nice to people. Like even you read each and every comment. It attracts people to watch ur video. Since everyone gets to know that you read their interactions
❤️
Be **very** careful of electric poles surrounded by puddles of water in the Indian monsoon. They can lack proper earthing and can be very dangerous. Stay as far away as you can and take a different route if possible.
Want more vlogs bro....
And i wanna give you a target
Try to explore each and every state of india..it will take time
Bit you will really understand what an incredible country india is 🇮🇳😊
In my life I hope to explore every Indian state :)
Hey don't worry brother this is minor mistake 😊 have a enjoy your tour 👍
Bro, it doesn't matter if you are sitting in the lady seat.
Such small mistakes keep happening in big countries. 😁
there is no such reservation of SEATS in public transport in western countries
Not big deal.. next time you will find Gents seat.. one group is fighting to create it
Interesting, didn't know that. Thanks for sharing :)
@@tommybtravels 😝 General seats will become male seat in future, bcs many ladies sits on general seats as well in buses & metro. Men lives matter. ✊🏼😜
Thank you bro to visit in India.. we all to welcome you...😊
westerner has to have a really open mind to visit a country like this. This guy is a legend !
Trust me, this mistake is nothing compared to entering a ladies washroom by mistake 😬
You sat there because it was empty and there is nothing wrong in that. You got up very politely, it is a regular thing to do. Locals do it all the time.... But the local boy sitting behind could have also offered his seat to the lady imo.
That’s not a big deal Tommy.. it is okay to sit in ladies seat if there is no other lady standing in the bus.. it’s not a crime. Btw welcome to Assam and hope you enjoyed your stay in Assam. This is rainy season in here so may be you will a bit uncomfortable in Assam 😢
Ahh I see, good to know hah :)
It's ok brother, it happens sometimes we don't notice on the bus everyone is busy
Thanks For Coming In Guwahati But Disappointed Flood All Over Assam 😢
It's ok bro i live in Guwahati and i came to know about this rule from your vlog😅.
Just a quick clarification. The seating is not segregated in the buses. Certain seats are just reserved for women (as a consideration, courtesy). The women are free to use any of the non-reserved seats as well. So if you find a women in the non-reserved section, it’s perfectly fine to sit next to her.
