Hey,

first of all, I'm new here and this is an awesome forum. i rarely havent see so much information gathered in on single forum. So keep you work up and maybe i can participate a little to it.

Right now im staying at the IIT Bombay for some studying. Should i try to book every train/bus tickets ahead or should i just do it during the travel ? I mean we are not travelling in a high season, so i guess there should be any ticket problems, but you guys are the experts, so i'm looking forward for your overall opinion.

Yes, i know some of the destinations are not in Rajasthan, but i figured that would be the best subforum for it.

Thank you in advance for your help

Sabato,

In India, whenever (whatever be the season) you are travelling it's always better to book your tickets in advance. Again if you itinerary is final then you should def. book the tickets in advance. Mainly I am talking about train ticknes. Also the season would be just at it's starting as the Board exams for 10 th & 12 th would be over.

Regarding you itinerary I can not be of any help as I have not travelled to this areas. However you will receive other responses.

Ronak.
