There are three classes: SEAT (advisable only for short distances), Sleeper 3AC and 2AC. To get your tickets at the train station, you have to know the number of the train, which is rather confusing, so you can ask a travel agency to purchase your tickets. They charge a 50\/100 rupees (1 or 2 Euros) commission.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, if you have time to do it, I recommend traveling by train, although it\u2019s a bit chaotic and you travel with a few harmless mice. If you have no time, fly, but arrange your reservations with plenty of time to get a good price. Don\u2019t leave India without getting on a train.<\/p>\n<p><strong> Bus<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are lots of buses, precarious but they work, advisable for short distances only. Moving by bus is easy and very cheap. There\u2019s always someone who calls out the destination from the door. Ask the price from the people who are waiting to buy. The sellers may try to overcharge you.<\/p>\n<p><strong> Room and Board<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the main cities, head to the market area, where you\u2019ll find lots of hotels and guest houses for 200-500 rupees (4-10 Euros). The food is excellent, but do ask that it\u2019s not too hot. Living properly in India can cost about 300\u20131,000 rupees a day (6-20 Euros).<\/p>\n<p>The North route can easily be traveled in a month.<\/p>\n<p>Best regards to all of you, and especially to all the people I have met during these months.<\/p>\n<p>Namaste<br \/>\nJoan<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.apogeephoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/march2008\/Ubide_photos\/6439_younglady.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"239\" height=\"159\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nCopyright 2008 Joan Ubide<\/p>\n<p><strong>GIRL IN RAJASTHAN VILAGE, 1\/40 F\/3.2 (EV-0.33) ISO 100 50MM<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.apogeephoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/march2008\/Ubide_photos\/6160_mancig.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"239\" height=\"159\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nCopyright 2008 Joan Ubide<\/p>\n<p><strong>RAJASTHAN MAN, RAJASTHAN VILAGE, 1\/80 F\/4.2 ISO 100 50MM<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.apogeephoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/march2008\/Ubide_photos\/0903_shore.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"252\" height=\"159\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nCopyright 2008 Joan Ubide<\/p>\n<p><strong>GATHS IN THE GANGA, 1\/100 F\/16 ISO 100 105MM<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.apogeephoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/march2008\/Ubide_photos\/6950_blkwhtman.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"242\" height=\"130\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nCopyright 2008 Joan Ubide<\/p>\n<p><strong>MAN IN RAJASTHAN VILAGE, 1\/320 F\/9 ISO 100 50MM<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.apogeephoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/march2008\/Ubide_photos\/5358lady_window.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"239\" height=\"159\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nCopyright 2008 Joan Ubide<\/p>\n<p><strong>GIRL IN PUSHKAR, 1\/30 F\/2.8 ISO 100 50MM<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.apogeephoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/march2008\/Ubide_photos\/5382_ladywall.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"159\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nCopyright 2008 Joan Ubide<\/p>\n<p><strong>GIRL IN PUSHKAR, 1\/60 F\/4 ISO 100 50MM<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.apogeephoto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/march2008\/Ubide_photos\/north_india_map.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"340\" height=\"255\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"jubide32008.shtml\">Back to beginning of article&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.joanubide.com\/portfolio-en\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\">To see more photos on Joan&#8217;s trek through North India, visit&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.apogeephoto.com\/oct2007\/jubide102007.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Visit Part 1: Mongolia<br \/>\n<\/a><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.apogeephoto.com\/nov2007\/jubide112007.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Visit Part 2: China<br \/>\n<\/a><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.apogeephoto.com\/dec2007\/jubide122007.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Visit Part 3: Tibet<br \/>\n<\/a><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.apogeephoto.com\/jan2008\/jubide12008.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Visit Part 4: Nepal<br \/>\n<\/a><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.apogeephoto.com\/june2008\/jubide62008.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Visit Part 6: South India<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.apogeephoto.com\/july2008\/jubide72008.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Visit Part 7: Iran<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>by Joan Ubide<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Copyright 2008 Joan Ubide BABA IN PUSHKAR, 1\/60 F\/3.8 ISO 100 50MM Travel facts and tips: In India domestic flights are rather cheap, around 3,000 rupees (60 Euro).
