I hope you're not female.
Of course when you're in India, always be on guard for suspicious activity: pickpockets in the most unlikely places, kidnappings, etc.
If someone offers you ANY help and you accept, even with bags at the airport, like loading them into a bus that goes between terminals, be aware that you might have to tip them, unless you want something undesirable to happen.
Always eat fully cooked food. If the place looks kinda seedy, just go vegetarian while there.
Stay out of muslim areas, if at all possible.
Try staying in one of those palaces-turned-hotel.
If you go to one of the monuments and you need to pay to get in, there might be a camera charge as well. Something like 25 Rupees to take photos of the place. If you're a cheap ass who can't even pay that measly amount, you can probably sneak in your camera, unless the guards are really attentitive. Just be ready for a bag-check, but those are not too thorough. Just rummaging through the top layer of the bag. Place some water, notebooks, etc ontop of the camera to hide it well.
As for what you can do, don't know of much, but here's a bit of what I do know...
Forts. Some of the forts can be rather nice, but can be rather touristy, depending on the fort you're at.
Try going on a safari. They can be pretty nice.
Ever seen a bazaar before?
