Traveling by plain isnot a middle class people's enjoyment, but now in India traveling by road is an enjoyment for such kind of people! Mostly people prefer to go in railway because of sleeping facility, food facility and availability. one kind of togatherness with pthers. When you go by road and in your own car then the traveling is different matter. You have to prepare so many things! From car to drive and laguage to food everything! But at the same time you have your own time and you can go with your own pace andyou can stay and stop where ever you like! Who prefers to travel this way? and who likes traveling this way in the point of view as an adventure too?!

I Rather go and travel by my own. I do like to be the master of my own time and planes. When i take the plain, the train or the bus, i always have to do everything according to what was decided for me. If i see a nice view in the middle of the trip, i can not go and ask the bus driver to stop, because i want to take pictures or do a picknic in this spot. So i really would rather my own.

I would prefer to travel by car on my own. I've been on the train here in Canada and it was ok but the service was rude. Also, these days many of Canada's railways are starting to degrade and there have been too many train accidents lately. I don't like to go anywhere by Tour Bus either because the tour doesn't allow me to see all the things that I want to. For example, when I went to Scotland on a tour bus, we stopped in Westminster, England for, get this, 1 hour. Yes, you read correctly - 1 lousy stinking hour. I did as much as I could within that hour....walked along the city wall for a bit, did a small bit of shopping, and toured Westminster Abby (a very large Catherdrial). I would have much preferred to have had much more time to explore, that's why I would rather take my own car.
