| Agra to Varanasi - routes, stopping places? As part of a longer trip, we would like to go with a car and driver from Agra to Varanasi. My questions are - how long would this be expected to take at an unstressful pace, and what are stopping places you would suggest, both for short visits and as overnight stops? We are not interested in Khajuraho on this trip. I am interested in Gwalior and maybe Orchha, which look to me to be too close to Agra to make overnight destinations. We're open to making one or two overnight stops before a longer stay in Varanasi, at least four days. Alternatively, if you see a good route that involves train plus car, I hope you'll tell me. Ideally a 2-3 hour train trip would be best because we will have a twelve-year-old with us and I think that's enough for him at a stretch, though I am aware this may not be possible. |

| Raju, thank you for your reply, also it is nice to know that my effort at Hindi actually means what I hoped it would!! I hae a further question on this topic and I've put it at this other thread Fly to Varanasi from Jhansi, Gwalior, vicinity which I started when my question changed somewhat -- if you have any additional thoughts I hope you'll come over there and join in. |
