Wow! It's good to see Australians learning how to travel in India ...... Comparing prices a Online and making a choice.....happy to see this.....foreigners they don't check prices like this while traveling in Kerala....often they end up choosing high prices.... Even though they have choices.... really a brilliant stuff...
Hey Hi Bro. 1. General Class boogie are always at beginning and at the end of the train. U travelled in a sleeper class. 2. There is no train number printed on a general class ticket but you will find the details in a sleeper class ticket. 3. Sleeper train tkts needs to be reserved in advance. You can book tkts using the app Railconnect. 4. And train number and the route (Origin station and the destination station) is fixed on a yellow board in top centre of each boogie. I hope that helps you the next time u travel by train in India. Enjoy your stay in India bro. Cheers
In Day time for short distances u can take sleeper class tickets from the counter itself. 120 Rs from alappuzha to varkala that is a sleeper class ticket taken over the counter.
Finally 100 rs :). Usually by meter in a metropolitan city will cost you 60/70 rs for 4 kms. In small cities concept of meter does not work as these guys don't get return rides. So 100 sounds ok
😊😊 yes! I was happy with 100 rs so I felt no need to bargain. Like you said it is roughly 20rs per km but in these small ones it is different! Thanks for sharing some tips for me!
@@LukeDamant we will always recognise our home station... :) Kollam Railway station has the second longest railway platform in the world. Platform 1 is of the length 1,180.5 m (3,873 ft). approx 1.18 kilometre. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railway_platform
How can u replay for every comment?.. u r so kind.kerala is one of the safest state in india .. so dont worry about safty problm .God bless u. Keep going
Yeah... I agree on that fact ... Some of my Kerala friends just create hype that it's unsafe due to political instabilities.... It's far far better than some north indian States ...(◔‿◔)
You guys take the time out of your day to watch my videos so I think it is only fair if I reply! Keralaa is beautiful and safe, so I am very happy here 😊
@Akanksh S Those Kerala friends you talked about are called sanghis(RSS followers) they love to defame Kerala every way possible.It's like drugs for them they get a kick from it.Almost all Keralites hate them.They are the reason behind political instabilities.

Hi Luke, nice to see your video. . Your style is different, you have the mentality to enjoy the local living style of India; it varies with place to place. India is a very complex country. You shouldn't expect the same situation and treatment from every part of India. Kerala people are usually mild and friendly. Take care and be cautious... All the best... A Keralite...
train no. would not be printed on tickets mate, u can catch any train which goes to ur destination. If u have reservation, then u will get the train no. and u have to catch the exact train. hope u get me, enjoy ur videos 😊👍🏾
*Right on the engine compartment you will see the train name and number* Or simply ask any companion about the *train name* instead of asking about the station you want to get down. So again I'm saying Just make sure that you are on the right train by asking the *train name* (Which you should know obviously)anyone in it because nobody wouldn't mind helping you. Ask atleast like 3 people to make sure. Then after making sure, you can either Google the train name or train number. *Please make sure you know the train name and train number which will be written on the Indian center board or you can use ask him. And if can simply Google the train number to get all the details regarding it from any first shown website*
Yes he was so so helpful! If it wasn't for him we may have caught the wrong train ahaha. I love mixing with the locals and seeing how the local people live. That is how you see true India!
Hey Luke, really loved watching your videos from last 3 hours😍, you are a real explorer. And please while shooting videos don't endanger yourself, I was really afraid wen I saw you standing on footrest n train Door Stay safe Buddy, Take Care, God Bless
Yes Varkala is amazing!!!! I really like it here. We didn't really spend much time in Alleppey due to the bad weather. So it probably wouldn't be that good of an experience going on the backwaters.
Varkala sivagiri station needs drastic improvements in terms of passenger amenities and infrastructure. Being one of the very famous tourist destinations, its being ignored by the officials for no reasons.
@@LukeDamant it was do amazing...we stayed till 8 or so at night at beach...but found it a little difficult to find our way back ,as it was too dark for us to see the stairs...but the shops ,cafe ,the lights at night.but you might find that some of the restaurants are little pricy,so make wise choices.....have fun
hahaha yes the stairs are really steep and there is no lighting at night ahaha. Yes the prices are pretty expensive on the main strip. I usually go into town near the train station and eat there to save some $$
You will find the train no. written on the top of the sides of each carriage. There uses to be 7 to 8 sleeper coaches. To find yours you have to look in your ticket. It must be written something like S8, S7, S6 etc. And then there are seat nos. written. It can be anything between 1 to 60 or 70. Have fun in India! I am enjoying your vlogs. 😊
If you buy a general quota ticket, you can get in any train (and get in general compartment) of any train that goes to your destination , so there will be no train or seat number on ticket. (within 24 hours i believe,pls check) . But if you reserve your tickets you ll get allotted seats, numbers etc. Try to use IRCTC (official Indian railways) app to reserve tickets. Happy travels :)
Even if you get a ticket number ,which is on upper berth in train, you will have a space on lower seat to sit. U dnt want to climb it and sit on upper side there. It is for you to sleep. I feel u got a hard time on upper berth, sitting
Guys welcome to thrissur ... The cultural capital of kerala.... U can see the beautiful athirappilly waterfalls and can have a stay in deep forest of malakkappara....
You are most welcome brother. And if you can visit North East that will be great.. I'll be waiting for your NE VLOG. Till then take care and keep dropping dope videos 🤘
Look for the announcement and information boards in the station if ur on correct platform on correct time don't worry about the train number u will on the right train
Thanks for being in Kerala bro.. You should do a video on how people of kerala love football.. It is the best time for that. Our team Kerala Blasters is playing in Indian Super League. Anyway nice shirt.. Is that Batik ?
Hey Luke.. Thee train number on the engine isn't same always... The one written on the train coaches where the source and destination is mentioned... Download the app Where's my train for a better experience on Indian Railways... Because trains get delayed a lot due to monsoon. It will be of a great help..
Thanks heaps bro! it is awesome that you can give me tips like that! I downloaded the app yesterday so hopefully it works next time I travel! and you are very right about the weather delaying trains 😂
Hey brother plz come to visit my hometown Silchar, Assam India by train..The silchar town and its surroundings are naturally very beautifull.. Nd sorry my english is not so good
Apart from goa, no places mentioned have beaches... And goa is just as similar to kerala other states are beautuful, but they are himalayan states, beauty of lofty snow peaked mountains and valleys is different from that of sunbathed beaches, lagoons and evergreen tropical forests. Its different geographical beauties.
Great videos bro and appreciate your guts traveling across India with out fear. You should go Kashmir,ladak,leh, etc to see one of the wonderful place in the world
Bro plz remember that hindi is not gonna work in kerala and tamilnadu..except these states I think it will work for you..In Tamilnadu people speaks a language called tamil. Kerala you can try english because most of them are familiar with it.This is just a tip..hope it will help you in your journey.
Luke Bro... I think its better to shoot sea shore beach area,(alapy & trivandrum districts ) Back water area (kumarakom lake in kottayam district ) mountain area like moonnar (idukki district ) vagamon (kottayam) like.. rather than Indiaan Railways.. Because these beautiful natural palaces gives you a better pleasant &positive moments and feelings.. anyway i saw you through KS (Karthik Surya )Chanel and subscribed your chanel also ..
There are so manu street dogs in kerala. we are sterilizing them so as to decrease their number. The metal you seen in the ear of dog means it was sterilized.

Varkala is a really good choice :D could have taken the boat route though, it's an amazing experience through the backwaters
Yes Varkala is amazing!!!! I really like it here. We didn't really spend much time in Alleppey due to the bad weather. So it probably wouldn't be that good of an experience going on the backwaters.
Thanks for showing us around 😍🇦🇺
No worries, I am glad you enjoyed the video 😊
Tea and coffee from the train in fact not recommended. There are so many awesome sellers. But not all of them!
