Visakhapatnam
Board the Kirandul Express from Visakhapatnam for one of India's most scenic rail journeys through 58 tunnels and 84 bridges to reach the coffee-growing Araku Valley in the Eastern Ghats. The journey itself — with tribal villages, waterfalls, and dense forest — is as magnificent as the destination.
Book the Kirandul Express berths at least 2 weeks in advance — this route is enormously popular with both tourists and researchers.
