Book a train from Chennai to New Jalpaiguri station. It is a 40-47 hours journey. (If flights available at an affordable price then flight can be an option to get rid off from this hectic journey of 44h) or you can cover it with a break journey. From New, Jalpaiguri takes a bus to Phuentsholing. Buses are run by Bhutan Government also and cost around 150 Rs. It takes around 5-6 hours to reach Phuentsholing from New Jalpaiguri. Once in Phuentsholing, you are technically in Bhutan. If you want to reach Thimphu you can take another bus for 100-200 Rs more. The buses leave early in the morning. So the net cost for traveling from Delhi to Bhutan(excluded Chennai to Delhi)comes out to be anywhere between 750- 1050 Rs depending on whether you want to go to Thimphu or just enter Bhutan and travel along the border.
Good Luck and Happy Travelling!!!

Hi, i have attached with this comment two packages for Sri lanka, you can customize them according to your needs. All you have to do is simply fill in your details in the form your get and someone from Tripoto will get in touch with you. You can tell them all the changes you need in the package.
Budget: Northeast is costlier than many other parts of the country. In hilly and remote areas Tata sumo or other such vehicles are used in shared basis for commutation. Fares on such vehicles are higher than bus or the prices charged in plains for the same distance. Even foods cost more on hills. But if you choose to cover mostly the plains of Assam, Tripura or Arunachal Pradesh you will get better modes of commutatioatth cheaper price. In the plain areas hitchhiking opportunities will also be more. Deciding the route: Since North East comprises of eight states it is advisable to decide the states and places you want to cover beforehand. It will help you to research the places and duration of your trip. It is also important because for entering in Nagaland, Arunachal Pradesh and Mizoram you will need to obtain Inner Line Permit. Best time to visit: The best time to visit North East is from October to April. During summer season rain causes a flood as well as a landslide, I am sure you would not like to stuck in a natural deserter like that. You can consider a trip in April as it is the best time to see the flowers blossom on the arrival of spring. Sikkim and Arunachal are the best places to see them. Starting from September, every year many festivals are organized throughout the northeast, (eg: zero music festival, orange festival, a kameng river festival, monolith festival etc) if you plan your trip accordingly you will get to meet many fellow travelers like you. Good Luck!!
Happy Traveling!!

Hey Hardik, Very firstly you have to go to the place called as Irkutsk in Russia. From there it's only 2 hrs to reach Baikal lake ... The closest place, where you can see Baikal is Listvyanka settlement, which is 65 km from Irkutsk, and you can get there by bus (1.5 hours) or car (1 hour). Listvyanka is quite a touristic village: there are hotels for any budget and taste, cafes and restaurants, and you can make good walks there. Happy Travelling!!!
