Hey, guys! I'm looking to do a quick, cheap, safe visa run to Nepal. I and some friends had train tickets booked to Siliguri and were going to simply cross the border there. I got to the train station last night, and the train was cancelled!! Because of flooding apparently. Now my friends have decided to do something else, so whatever I do I'll be traveling alone.
Siliguri option:
What is the feasability of even getting to Siliguri, either by direct train or train to Kolkata and then bus to Siliguri, with the flooding? Am I going to just get stuck again if I try that route?
Is it a safe place for a female who has traveled in India a lot to be by herself?
Delhi option:
there is a place to cross just east of Delhi. Does anyone know what the actual name of the border crossing is? And how to get there and back?
Sri Lanka:
My other option is to fly from Sri Lanka. I am not sure of the safety in going there though. It seems to be getting worse.
I have a month before I have to leave but, considering these plans fell thru, it's better to get it done! My budget is tight so flying to Thailand or Kathmandu not an option, really, unless absolutely necessary.
Any advice?
