Hi there, We’re heading to Gujarat at the end of January for a month, traveling by local transport, and I’m currently trying to figure out how to get from PATAN to BHUJ by train or bus. On the IRTC website, I only found overnight trains, which doesn’t work for us. Do you know if there are any daytime buses leaving from Patan or Palanpur? We’re also wondering if there’s a ferry service between Mandvi and Okha. Thanks for your help! Alod

Hello everyone. It's to greet all the old-timers here with whom I had so many interactions when I used to visit this platform regularly and eagerly before it was shut down, much to our dismay.

I was a member under the name "Jaydev," but it seems I can't log in with that name anymore. Maybe I deleted the username, thinking VoyageForum wouldn't come back.

I'm so happy to be able to log in here again. Talking about Indian things—and in the language I love—lets me practice and chat with people who love the land where I was born.

From a visitor's perspective, I find it really interesting to interact with the local population. That's what gives meaning to the word "travel." Without it, traveling is essentially just "getting from one place to another."

Thanks, and see you soon.

Hi there,

A friend and I are planning to visit Northern India from March 3rd to March 25th. We’ll arrive in New Delhi, then take a night train to Bikaner, Bikaner to Jaisalmer (train) Jaisalmer to Jodhpur (train) Jodhpur to Udaipur (car) Udaipur to Bundi (train) Bundi to Jaipur (train/bus) Jaipur to Agra by train Agra to Varanasi and return from Varanasi to Delhi by night train

We’re planning to stay 1 or 2 days in each city. This itinerary was recommended by a guide my friend has been talking to—what do you think?

It’s our first time in Northern India. I’ve only been to Southern India before—Pondicherry for 10 days about 10 years ago—so it’s nothing like the North. Thanks!
