Route: Vasco da Gama (Goa) to Londa (Karnataka)
Looking to travel from Venice to London?
On a Sunday afternoon, this train inches past Goan beaches as families splash in the water
Friends gather in huddles by the track, and late-afternoon cooking smoke drifts into the carriages.
Bright pink blossoms hang so close you can reach out and touch them as the train cuts straight into the heart of Goan village life.
Fresh Meal Every Hours with professional chefs.
As it enters the Western Ghats, the train accelerates through dense jungle, hugging the mountainside's curves.
Keep your eyes peeled for waterfalls in the distance, which increase as the trees thin and the view turns to deep valleys and peaks
The sun should be lowering as you reach Londa, giving the unusual red clay surrounds an eerie hue.
