What language is this supposed to be? You want friendly reply with time input by the replier, but you yourself do not care to write out your request in full?

sorry i apoligise for the short form of words used in my post. i hope i didnot hurt anybody's sentiment neither my intention was to do so. i thought everybody would make out what i tried to mean, and i was wrong. once again i apologise.

those who didnot understand my loompen language i m trying to put in my queries in best possible shakespearean english.

I am looking for a semi touristy, semi known place for a weekend trip from delhi. i have kinda 36 hours. saturday 3p.m. to sunday night. waiitng for your suggestion wid itinerary. i cannot afford car from delhi. preferable mode of transport will be trains or delux buses.

thanking you
yours sincerely

hey Sagnik...36 hours without a car ...very difficult...maybe go to rishikesh, spend the night there...have fun till afternoon and then come back...(but it is too hectic)..

You can try Neemrana, its only around 120 KM from Delhi..all buses going to Jaipur will go there..spend a nice evening in Palace..

jyotirmoy · Oct 16th, 2007, 19:07

Neemrana fort accomodation is damn expensive. You have too little time to go to any interesting destination by public transport.
You may think of hitting one of the motels of Hariyana tourism like the one at Karnal.

I guess I checked the cheapest one for Rs.2500..not sure though...

jyotirmoy · Oct 16th, 2007, 19:18

Ok Shashank I change it from damn expensive to quite expensive. Add the food prices too.

nayan · Oct 16th, 2007, 19:20

also .... not much in the way of sightseeing around neemrana.....

yeah..food and liquor looks to be a problems..plus taxes...not affordable huh !!

dream_traveller · Oct 17th, 2007, 12:26

thnx shashank for suggesting rishikesh. But neemrana i think quite expensive as jyoti and nayan said, also according to our budget. How about sariska and alwar? i hv checked the trains time and availabilty. i think it takes 3 hours to reach alwar by train. and from there sariska is another 45 mins. as i said ican always hire a car reaching the place. so if u guys think sariska and alwar wud be alright thn pls make an itinerary for the trip. waiting for your suggestions and some more places which you think wud be suitable.

jyotirmoy · Oct 17th, 2007, 12:35

Alwar is a good idea. Spend a night at the state run Silisher palace. Go for an early morning boat ride.

rkbharat · Oct 17th, 2007, 12:46

Sariska is ok with wild life...

dream_traveller · Oct 17th, 2007, 13:12

thnx jyoti nd rajiv. i have heard there are no more tigers left in sariska. so will it be worth visiting sariska? wht abt da scenic beauty and other wild lifes of sariska. nd also is it possible to cover both alwar and sariska within my stipulated time?

jyotirmoy · Oct 17th, 2007, 13:18

You will reach Alwar in the evening. After spending the night at Shilisher have a boat ride and then leave for Sariska. You can take a two hour ride in the forest but don't expect to see much of wild life, may be a few Nilgais. With out your own transport doing both may be very hectic.

shashank.aggarwal · Oct 17th, 2007, 13:49

Jyoti da...Shilisher Palace, do you know the rates ??
