HI..
NOVEMBER WOULD BE GOOD FOR VARANASI BUT DONT THINK OF TRAVELLING THERE TILL SEPTEMBER, WEATHER WOULD BE BAD..

C YA..

hi
november -varanasi will be nice-Sarnath is  just 15 kms  from varanasi Itis  the place where the Buddha preached his first sermon-please make it before 5 pm
Bodhgaya  -travelling on road sometimes is  not too safe  -
you might  be disappointed  in gaya  because there may not be too good eateries    or  hotels.
NEVER TRAVEL ALONE

hey,
firstly,how are you? probably you're lil bit scared about india. Anyways,see my blog keanutiewary.blogspot.com ,there is an article on Varanasi.It will help you.Best of luck for your journey!

Hey Thecinnamonjourney

It's best not to reach any train station in the middle of the night. Yes it can be unsafe and you might face some other problems as well. Bodhgaya inspite of being a pilgrimage center is not very cosmopolitan and that's  the reason you heard warnings about that place. I don't know what site you checked but maybe you should check the official Indian railways website and see whether you can find any trains that reach during the day.

http://www.indianrail.gov.in/dont_Know_ … _Code.html

You can enter the names of train stations and find out all information like a list of trains between those two stations, the total fare, route and availability of seats.

I hope this helps.
Feel free to ask if you have any more questions/doubts.
Hope you have a safe and pleasant journey!
Cheers!
