Wander to Your Heart’s Content


The need to explore new places is innate in all living beings, and humans more than all other species. Perhaps this has to do with the fact that our basic needs are taken care of, which is why we can allot more time to the pursuit of leisure activities and novel experiences. The modes of conveyance we use to get from place to place have also contributed greatly to our ability to roam, and it seems opportune to make the most of our good luck!

With the aim of making travel cheaper, easier and faster, IRCTC operates many trains that cover scenic routes and significant destinations. With the best train tour packages around, the options are so many that it takes a while just to decide which trip you want to go on!



Covering religious, cultural and natural beauties in the itineraries, there are multiple stops that take your breath away. From the southern part of India with its well-maintained temples and pristine cities to the north of the country that is covered by the holy Ganges and its associated system of rivers, no other way can beat the reliability of the train tours. The packages are decided upon by taking all factors of comfort and efficiency of passengers, and more services like hotel bookings, cab provision, security staffing and sightseeing travel are available depending upon the itinerary of the tour you select.

Coverage of the Length and Breadth of This Vast Country

Just as an example of the thought given to organizing the tours, Gangtok and Darjeeling tour packages take you from various boarding points in the south of the country – Kerala and Andhra Pradesh, among others – and show you the splendid eastern Himalayas at the eponymous cities. The tour includes many, many site visits including but not at all limited to such awesome sights as the famed sunrise over Tiger Hill and the Maitreyi Buddha at Ghoom Monastery, both in Darjeeling. The flora at the Gangtok Flower Show and the splendid panoramas from the Tashi View Point will leave your device memory running low no matter how hard you resist clicking pictures, so make sure you have enough backup space!

The Cool Kanchenjunga train tour package incorporates the best of the beauty that is on display in the highest reaches of the eastern Himalayas. Starting with the Tsomgo Lake, 12,300 feet above mean sea level. This lake’s reflections of the sunlight have been used to foretell prophecies by the Buddhist priests of the region, and once you see it for yourself you can tell why it might have such mesmerizing effects on people’s minds. Mysticism apart, the fun of riding a yak on the banks of Tsomgo, even if only for a short while, is unique and always a must-do for young and old alike! Wildlife enthusiasts stand a chance to see the red panda and Brahminy ducks if they are lucky to visit when the weather is right for the fauna to wander about.

These are just two of the train tour packages, check out the site to explore more!
