From New Delhi To Varanasi

vdadu 30 reviews

Varanasi, the oldest living city in the world, is really beautiful in terms of both River Ganges and Oldest temple of Lord Shiva.

Lot of devotees visit the city of Varanasi (also known as Banaras & Kashi) for ablusion and to pray in the temple. Apart from this, lot of visitors also come to this city to see the beauty and vastness of River Ganges. Let me confirm u that their is no doubt about the beauty of the holy river and it will be really worth watching & enjoying.

There are two means of transport for reaching the city from Delhi. They are
a) By Air
b) By Train

Option 1: By Air

U will find direct flight from Delhi Airport to Varanasi Airport and the max duration of flight will be approximately 1.5hrs. For booking air tickets, u may visit
www.cleartrip.om
www.yatra.com
www.makemytrip.com
www.ezeego1.com
I had quoted these many sites because it will provide u flexibility in terms of pricing and may be flight timings also.

Option 2: By Train
Direct train is available from New Delhi to Varanasi. The train name is Kashi Vishwanath Express and it starts at 1330hrs from New Delhi and reaches Varanasi at around 0600hrs next day. Timing wise, it will be best suited as u will be reaching Varanasi early morning.

For booking on Railway tickets, visit official site at
www.irctc.co.in

IT IS TO BE NOTED THAT ONLY INDIAN RAILWAY IS OFFERING ONLINE TICKET RESERVATION FACILITY THRU THEIR OFFICIAL WEBSITE.

If u ask my preference, I will say Train provided I have ample amount of time. U will enjoy train journey.

If u want to be more comfortable then reserve ticket in 2AC else 3AC will do.

India Railways also offers Instant booking service known as "Tatkal" where in u can book tickets only 5days in advance i.e. for journey date say for 6th, the earliest u can book is on 1st. This service is meant for those u had not planned their travel well in advance.

the best way to get around corbett is the asian elephant. silent and able to get almost anywhere its the most fun and cheapest transport in corbett.

Due to limited no. of elephants being availbale at rest houses its better to get advance bookings made for the morning or evening rides.

Costs wok out to approx. 150 Rs. per person for a 2-3 hr ride.
