Read MoreImagine sitting on a train that has traveled more than a century—the Orient Express from Paris to Istanbul. This luxurious train journey feels like a scene from a classic novel. As I settle into my compartment, the wheels sing a unique song of the journey.
The journey begins in Paris, where the glitz of the city gradually gives way to tiny villages. I remember how I drank fine champagne as we passed through charming villages, each with a story of its own.
While crossing borders in Eastern Europe, the diverse culture and history of each stop creates a vivid tapestry. Every meal felt like a celebration while enjoying gourmet meals at dinner.
Orient Express is not just a journey; it is an experience that is remembered even after reaching the last station.
Russia is my favorite country for train travel. The adventures that we can have in Russia, we can hardly have in any other country because the area of this country is very large and there are things from all over the world to explore here.

Don’t get confused by hearing the name ‘The Indian Pacific’ that this place is in India. This is an Australian train. It takes us on a tour showing us the diversity of Australia.
I still remember when we were passing through the famous Nullarbor Plain. Such an open land. Which was very beautiful and attractive. And the most interesting thing.
When we were traveling, the sun was setting at that time and I would say that you should go and see that view with your own eyes once and then tell us by commenting how you liked it.

They told us many things about this place. And we saw the culture here in more depth. That is why the fun of train journey is something different.

Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, also known as the “Toy Train”, is an amazing journey like a nature connected dream.
This narrow-gauge railway passes through the Bengal hills of Darjeeling, which have tea plantations and heart mealting views.
I remember as the rhythmic chugging of the train took it up the steep slopes, the cold breeze brought with it the fragrance of fresh tea and then we stop in a station and order a tea.
The taste of tea is amazing and must try for tourists. As the locals passed through small villages, they always waved their hands with a smile.
The highlight was when we reached Darjeeling, where the majestic Kanchenjunga was behind. This train journey is not just transportation; This is a cultural experience of feeling the beauty of India’s mountainous landscapes.
Leaving the Hiram Bingham train toward Machu Picchu is like something straight out of an action movie. I step on and feel luxury, opulence. As the train ride is passing through beautiful landscapes in Sacred Valley.
We eat so well as we travel and take in the beautiful views around every corner. It is a visual treat to the eyes as mountains on either side rise high and you walk under tree cover.
As I lay eyes on the ancient citadel which is Machu Picchu, I felt like a character only in some far away tale. This train is not just a journey, this is a tradition which carries you till here with the beauty of history and culture.

Book tickets in advance: If you want to have a safe journey, book your train tickets in advance. This way you will not have to face the tension and rush of last minute travel and your journey will be tension free and in a very auspicious manner.
Reach the station early: Always reach your railway station before time because this will relieve you from the last minute stress and you will be able to roam around the station a bit and understand the infrastructure there.
Keep your belongings secure: I always tell people this. Those who are going on a train journey should take care of their belongings themselves. Keep them with you. Do not trust anyone else.
