Travelling on regular trainsusually take away your chance to sightsee in popular destinations. We sometimes travel through the major travel destinations, but hardly get the time and opportunity to look around the attractions and places present there.
The good news is there are Indian train tours present. These trains also accommodate different kinds of budgets. After making your booking reservations in the particular train, make sure that you do a train ticket enquiry to check the status of your bookings.
