Known as the ‘Galapagos of Russia’\, its age and isolation have produced one of the world’s richest and most unusual freshwater faunas.\n\nA journey on the Trans-Siberian Railway from Moscow to Lake Baikal feels like stepping into a realm of mystery and wonder. As the train weaves through over 5\,000 kilometres of Russia’s vast wilderness\, the landscapes shift from bustling cities to eerie forests and snow-covered tundra\, cloaked in silence. Legends whisper of ancient spirits guarding the lands\, and the train’s rhythmic hum seems to echo their presence. Near Irkutsk\, the train skirts Lake Baikal\, its icy waters shimmering with an almost otherworldly glow.

Unguja\, commonly called Zanzibar\, is the largest island\, and it’s where most visitors spend their time. Zanzibar\, also known as the Spice Islands\, has been a major source of the world’s supply of cloves\, nutmeg\, cinnamon\, and black pepper for centuries. \n\n\n\n\nThere is evidence of civilization in Zanzibar dating back 20\,000 years.

SUMMARY:INDIA'S LONGEST TRAIN JOURNEY
DESCRIPTION:INDIA’S LONGEST TRAIN JOURNEY\nImagine being on a train for four days straight… not in a rush\, not checking the clock\, just *living* the journey. \nYou’re aboard the Vivek Express\, surrounded by a gang of train lovers who believe the journey is the destination. Strangers on Day 1\, but by Day 2\, you’re sharing stories\, playlists\, and laughter like old friends. As the train glides out of Dibrugarh\, you sip chai while watching endless tea gardens blur into the horizon. Someone opens a box of Assamese snacks\, and just like that\, the food trail begins. \nEvery few hours\, the landscape — and the cuisine — changes. \nIn Bihar\, it’s litti chokha wrapped in newspaper.\nThrough Odisha\, you taste piping hot dalma and station-side pakoras.\nBy the time you cross Andhra Pradesh\, the spice kicks in — biryani\, spicy curries\, and tangy chutneys.\nAnd somewhere near Chennai\, it’s all about dosa\, idli\, and filter coffee. \nThe rhythm of the train becomes your routine — wake up to sunrise over rivers\, work remotely with your laptop by the window\, take calls with the soft hum of the tracks in the background. “Work from train” suddenly feels better than any office view. No traffic. No stress. Just motion\, conversations\, and quiet moments staring out of the window as India unfolds — one state at a time. \nBy the time you reach Kanyakumari\, something has changed. You’re slower\, calmer\, lighter. The chaos of everyday life feels distant.This isn’t just a trip.\nIt’s a moving escape. A reset. A rare kind of peace you didn’t know you needed. \nSo… how about it?\nJoin us for a journey where time slows down\, friendships speed up\, and every mile tastes different. \nWhatsApp on 9029099709 to book a slot! \n4 Days Vivek Express Food Journey\n“8 States | 1 Train | Unlimited Memories” \nTravel Style: 2AC SleeperMeals: All meals included (curated regional food experience)Theme: India through Food & Slow Travel \n📍 DAY 1: Dibrugarh → Assam Experience\n\nBoard the Vivek Express from Dibrugarh\nWelcome kit + ice-breaking session with fellow travellers\nEnjoy scenic tea gardens & Brahmaputra views\n\n🍽️ Food Trail Begins: \n\nChai\nTraditional thali (rice\, dal\, sabzi\, local flavors)\n\n✨ Experience: \n\nMeet your “train tribe”\nSunset chai by the window\n\n📍 DAY 2: Northeast → Bihar → Odisha\nWake up to changing landscapes 🌄 \n🍽️ Food Stops: \n\nWest Bengal: Light breakfast + sweets\nBihar: Famous litti chokha lunch\nOdisha: Dalma + station-style pakoras\n\n✨ Experience: \n\nTrain games & group bonding\nWork-from-train setup 💻\nEvening storytelling session\n\n📍 DAY 3: Andhra Pradesh → Tamil Nadu Flavours\nThe spice level rises 🔥 \n🍽️ Food Highlights: \n\nAndhra Pradesh: Spicy biryani\, curries\, chutneys\nTamil Nadu: Dosa\, idli\, filter coffee ☕\n\n✨ Experience: \n\nSunrise views from train windows\nMusic\, reels & content creation\nChill + slow travel vibes\n\n📍 DAY 4: Arrival at Kanyakumari\n\nReach Kanyakumari 🌊\nWitness the iconic ocean meeting point\n\n🍽️ Final Meal: \n\nSouth Indian breakfast\n\n📍 DAY 5: Eexplore Kanyakumari\n✨ Experience: \n\nReflection time: From strangers → family\nCapture final memories & group photos 📸\nStay in Kanyakumari\n\n📍 DAY 5: Eexplore Kanyakumari\nFly back home with memories \n🎯 WHAT’S INCLUDED\n✔️ 1 side 2AC Sleeper Train Ticket✔️ All Meals in train (8 states food experience)✔️ Curated food tastings✔️ Group activities & games✔️ Travel host & coordination \n❌ EXCLUDES\n✖️ Return ticket & Personal expenses✖️ Extra snacks outside curated meals✖️ Any off-train activities \n🔥 WHY JOIN THIS?\n\nExperience 8 states in 4 days\nTry authentic regional food onboard 🍱\nMake friends\, create content\, slow down life\nUnique “Work from Train” experience\n\n  \n

Ancient churches\, monasteries\, cobbled stone streets and charming architecture will come alive with street art\, music\, cafes and bars\, funky shisha places\, clubs and friendly people. A strong Asian influence comes in cahoots with European culture\, creating a vibe that is unique\, fun and full of energy. \nAlthough modernization is visible\, the soul of the city lies in the old town\, where the zigzagging lanes\, street markets\, colourful houses and al fresco cafes maintain a certain charisma. Walking is the best way to explore this area and many historical structures will be found at a stone’s throw from each other. \n\n \n\nAerial tramway to the Narikala Fortress\nKartlis Deda statue\nSulphur baths\nBridge of Peace\nSioni Cathedral\nRezo Gabriadze Theatre\nAnchiskhati Basilica\nLiberty Square\nDry Bridge Market\nNightlife: Shardeni Street\nRustaveli Avenue\n\nStay in Tblisi\n\nDay 2: Mksheta\, Gori &  Uplistsikhe\nBreakfast \nWe will start our road trip journey today with our rental cars. \n\nMksheta is the old capital of Georgia and is hardly a 20-minute drive from Tbilisi city. It is the birthplace of Christianity in Georgia and houses beautiful cathedrals with medieval architecture\, a touristy cobbled-stone street with shops and food stalls\, and a monastery perched on top of the hill which sets an amazing backdrop to the town\, which is on the banks of the rivers -Mtkvari and Aragvi. \nIt surrounds the famous Svetitskhoveli cathedral and has winding lanes and stone houses\, which are gorgeous and take you back in time.

Set in the backdrop of the Caucasus mountains\, the architecture is enchanting and walk inside the fortress is a must! You might also want to take a dip in the waters behind the complex\, in the summer.  A souvenir market just outside the complex is a great place to strike some good bargains. \nAfter Ananuri\, we will head to Gadauri\, where the landscapes get even lovelier. This is where the ski resort is located .You may\, however\, want to try the para-gliding from here because of the amazing views over the valley. A viewing platform decorated with mosaics\, located on the edge of the hill is a popular place for tourists to stop and take some amazing pictures. \nAfter some mountain activities and lovely pictures\, proceed to Kazbegi\, specifically to a town called Stepantsminda\, from where the trek/ off-road tours to Gergeti Trinity Church begin. This is one of the prettiest churches you will visit in Georgia\, perched on a hill and with snow-capped peaks in the backdrop. \nActivity :If you choose to hike to the church\, keep about 1.5 – 2 hours for it else you can take a tour (in a 4-wheel drive) from the village below. Be prepared for an extremely bumpy ride! The views from the top\, however\, are worth it. \nStay in Gadauri \nDay 5 & 6\nBreakfast  \nDrive to /214 km & Kakheti (Sighnaghi) \nKakheti is the primary wine-producing city in Georgia.

Few cities in the world are changing as quickly and nowhere else in the Caucasus do East and West blend as seamlessly or as chaotically. Baku\, the capital of Azerbaijan\, is a captivating destination with a mix of modern architecture and rich history. \nBaku’s nightlife offers diverse options\, including energetic clubs like Enerji and Eleven\, live music venues such as the Baku Jazz Center\, and rooftop bars with stunning views. You can also find casinos\, relaxed cafes\, and special events throughout the year. Explore the city’s vibrant atmosphere and enjoy the nightlife scene. \nHistory: Before the discovery of oil\, Baku was a sleepy little town passed over by the world. After oil was discovered in 1846\, the city grew: large boulevards and buildings were built to emulate Paris\, as the nouveaux riches loved all things French. The city grew well into the early 20th century before subsequent world wars and Soviet rule pushed it off the world stage. Now\, thanks in part to Eurovision and lots of oil money\, Baku is a mix of its ancient core\, the surrounding 19th-century Parisian-style neighbourhoods\, and the sprawling modern city with its futuristic buildings\, expanding outward.v \n \n\nBrief itinerary : \nDay 1 (27-June): Land and Settle down + Night Party \nDay 2 (28-June): Old Baths + Night Party \nDay 3 (29-June) : Mud Volcano full-day trip \nDay 4 (30-June): Fly back home \n  \nDay 1\nWelcome to the capital city in Azerbaijan.\n\nAs soon as you land at the airport\, one of our staff will welcome you at the airport and will take you to the hotel in a vehicle.

Zanzibar\, also known as the Spice Islands\, has been a major source of the world’s supply of cloves\, nutmeg\, cinnamon\, and black pepper for centuries. \n\n\n\n\nThere is evidence of civilization in Zanzibar dating back 20\,000 years.

SUMMARY:SPAIN : ZINDGI NA MILEGI DOBARA
DESCRIPTION:SPAIN – Let’s relive ZNMD\n \n  \nEmbark on the ultimate adventure inspired by the iconic Bollywood movie “Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara.” Our travel company is thrilled to present a meticulously crafted itinerary that mirrors the exhilarating journey of three friends discovering the essence of life amidst the picturesque landscapes of Spain. Get ready to unleash your inner adventurer\, forge lifelong bonds\, and create unforgettable memories as you explore the stunning locales featured in this cinematic masterpiece. Bring your friends if you wanna relive this movie in real. \nWe will cover the La Tomatina festival in Valencia\, Scuba diving in Lloret de Mar\,  road trips and skydiving in Costa Brava. \nLa Tomatina is a food fight festival held on the last Wednesday of August each year in the town of Buñol near to Valencia in Spain. Thousands upon thousands of people make their way from all corners of the world to fight in this ‘World’s Biggest Food Fight’ where more than one hundred metric tons of over-ripe tomatoes are thrown in the streets. \nPrior to 2013 anywhere from 40\,000 to 50\,000 (reported to be 50\,000 in 2012) people crammed into this huge tomato fight\, greatly expanding Bunol’s normal 9\,000-person population. Since 2013 official ticketing has been in place limiting the number of participants to just 20\,000 lucky people. \n  \nDay 1 (25-Aug) Land in Velencia \nDay 2 (26-Aug) La Tomatina Festival/Venta Pillar and Ek Junoon song \nDay 3 (27-Aug) Valencia to Barcelona: Gothic Quarter: Kabir search for father\, Salman Habib \nDay 4 (28 Aug) Barcelona: Flamingo dance \nDay 5 (29-Aug) Costa Brava: A road trip in the same clothes \nDay 6 (30-Aug) Lloret de Mar: Scuba & place\, where Laila met Kabir on the nudist beach \nDay 7 (31-Aug) Barcelona \nDay 8 (01-Sep) Fly to Seville to skydive \nDay 9 (02-Sep)  Fly back or Join us for an extended trip to Ibiza \n  \nDay 10 (02-Sep) Ibiza  \nDay 11 (03-Sep) Ibiza  \nDay 12 (04-Sep) Ibiza \nDay 13 (05-Sep) Ibiza \nDay 13 (06-Sep) Flyback or Extend Your  \n  \n  \nWhat Happens at La Tomatina\nAt around 11 am many trucks haul the bounty of tomatoes into the centre of the town\, Plaza del Pueblo. The tomatoes come from Extremadura\, where they are less expensive. Technically the festival does not begin until one brave soul has climbed to the top of a two-story high\, greased-up wooden pole and reached the coveted ham at the top. In practice\, this process takes a long time and the festival starts despite no one reaching the meaty prize. The signal for the beginning of the fight is the firing of water cannons\, and the chaos begins. Once it begins\, the battle is generally every man for himself. \nAfter one hour\, the fighting ends. At this point\, no more tomatoes can be thrown. The cleaning process involves the use of fire trucks to spray down the streets\, with water provided from a Roman aqueduct. The authorities seem more concerned with cleaning the town than cleaning the visitors\, so some people find water at the Bunol River to wash\, although some kind residents will hose passers-by down. Once the tomato pulp is flushed\, the ground is clean due to the acidity of the tomato. \n  \nDay 1 & 2: Valencia\n \nDo you how Kabir\, Arjun and Imran landed in Valencia\, because of the Tomato festival? We will also explore Valencia like them. \nValencia\, the birthplace of Paella and the third-largest city in Spain\, is often overlooked and underestimated in favour of its big brother Barcelona. However\, it offers much the same in terms of its striking architecture\, fantastic food\, beautiful parks\, and beaches. Not only this\, but it comes with a big plus side- far fewer tourists and smaller price tags! Discover the best things to do in Valencia on a city trip. \nLa Tomatina\nToday\, we will start from Valencia towards Bunol and explore the world-famous festival named La Tomatina. \nLa Tomatina is a food fight festival held on the last Wednesday of August each year in the town of Buñol near Valencia in Spain. Thousands upon thousands of people make their way from all corners of the world to fight in this ‘World’s Biggest Food Fight’ where more than one hundred metric tons of over-ripe tomatoes are thrown in the streets. \nPrior to 2013 anywhere from 40\,000 to 50\,000 (reported to be 50\,000 in 2012) people crammed into this huge tomato fight\, greatly expanding Bunol’s normal 9\,000-person population.

Once the tomato pulp is flushed\, the ground is clean due to the acidity of the tomato. \nUseful Advice\n\nWear closed shoes that you do not mind throwing away afterwards. If you wear flip-flops\, you may get hurt\, or you could lose them easily during the battle\nWear old clothes\, or clothes that you are not planning to wear again. They will most likely end up damaged from being ripped or incredibly dirty\nYou may find goggles useful. However\, it is safer if you just ensure that you always have something clean to wipe your eyes with. The best thing is if you tuck your T-shirt into your shorts to keep the bottom part of your T-shirt clean and dry\nIf you are planning to take pictures\, bring a waterproof camera!\nIf you are not from Bunol\, and you want to stay overnight\, don’t forget to look for and secure accommodation in advance\nDo not miss the Palojabon – a greased pole with a Spanish ham at the top. Whoever can climb the pole and get the ham can keep it!\nStay safe and enjoy the festivities as much as possible\n\nValencia City Exploration : \n\nEat your way through the Central Market\nValencia Silk Exchange\nGet lost in the streets of El Carmen\nClimb the Cathedral\nPlaza de la Virgen\nTrendy Rusafa\nPalau Marques de Dos Aguas\nColourful streets of Cabanyal\nRelax on Valencia beach\nThe old gates of Valencia\n\nDay 3: Barcelona\nToday we will reach Barcelona by bus. Reach Barcelona and check in at the hostel\, today we plan is to explore Camp Nau. \nIf you are a football lover then you can not miss this! \nCamp Nou was built between 1954 and 1957 and officially opened on the 24th of September 1957 with a match between FC Barcelona and a selection of players from the city of Warsaw. \nThe stadium replaced Barcelona’s previous ground Camp de les Corts\, which\, though it could hold 60\,000 supporters\, was still too small for the growing support of the club. \nCamp Nou initially consisted of two tiers that could hold 93\,000 spectators. It was first called Estadi del FC Barcelona but got soon referred to as Camp Nou. \n  \nDay 4: Barcelona\n \nGothic Quarter: Kabir searches for his father\, Salman Habib \nThe first stop in the Born Quarter is to get some breakfast with churros con chocolate. This Spanish staple is a tasty deep-fried doughy pastry that’s dipped in rich\, creamy chocolate. If you’re vegan or gluten-free\, there are several allergy-friendly restaurants in Barcelona. Not feeling chocolate? You can order churros without chocolate and enjoy it with coffee instead. \nAfter grabbing breakfast\, roam around the asphalt streets of the Born Quarter and head over to the Passeig del Born. This beautiful passage is lined with exquisite eateries that have outdoor seating\, overhanging trees\, and cosy shops. In this area\, you’ll also find the Basilica of Santa Maria del Mar\, a beautiful medieval Basilica\, as well as the Santa Caterina Market. This market is filled with local restaurants\, freshly cured meats\, delectable cheeses\, fruits\, and vegetables. \n1.

You’ll find croquetas\, empanadas\, mini-sandwiches\, and several eateries to grab tapas (a hearty snack)\, or enjoy a late lunch. \nThis is generally considered to be the city centre. \nWe will have a party in the Gothic Quarter! \n  \nDay 5 : Costa Brava\n \nToday\, we will move to Costa Brava by bus or train to re-live some of the most beautiful parts of the ZNMD. \nWith an arresting scenery and sparkling Mediterranean coastline\, the Spanish region of Costa Brava ticks all the boxes for a sun-soaked getaway. Tucked away in the northeastern corner of Catalonia\, it stretches from the French border all the way to the ‘Costa Brava gateway’ of Blanes. Once in the shadows of the more touristy Costas of mainland Spain\, in-the-know travellers have been taking holidays in Costa Brava since the sixties. With a treasure trove of fishing villages and lively seaside towns\, Costa Brava\, aka the ‘Wild Coast’\, has so much to offer. \nWe will explore Costa Brava town like locals. \nCalella de Palafrugell\nYou will feel a bit like stepping into the 70s when you come around the corner and lay eyes on the retro colour palette of the doors or the whole vibe.Calella de Palafrugell. \nThe ancient fishing village has several beach areas and coves perfect for a day of swimming and lounging on the beach. Along the beach\, you’ll find many restaurants and viewpoints. \nDay 6: Lloret de Mar\n \nLloret de Mar\, a town on the Costa Brava in Spain’s Catalonia region\, is known for its Mediterranean beaches. The medieval hilltop Castle of Sant Joan\, to the east\, offers views over the area\, while the central Iglesia de Sant Romà church provides examples of both Catalan Gothic and modernist architecture. On a cliff overlooking the sea\, the Santa Clotilde Gardens were built in the style of the Italian Renaissance. \nWe will go to the same beach\, where Laila met Kabir\, Imran and Arjun. To make it more interesting\, you can do the optional scuba dive and explore the underwater world. \nActivity: Scuba dive \nDay 7 & 8: Barcelona\n \nToday\, we will reach back to Barcelona and catch a flight to our next destination to Seville. \nGuess why we are going there? \nYes\, to skydive in Seville. \nJust 20 minutes from the city centre of Seville\, you can go skydiving and feel the adrenaline rush of seeing the Andalusian capital from the clouds. \nParachute one minute of pure adrenaline in freefall with a professional skydiving instructor and enjoy the magnificent views of Seville.
