Visakhapatnam and Araku Valley; A refreshing short trip

Visakhapatnam or Vizag is a bustling city on the coast of the Bay of Bengal. Despite being the most populous city in Andhra Pradesh it is surprisingly clean and a popular tourist spot. This particular tour is almost mandatory for Bengalis and they like to throw in theBora caves and the beautiful Araku valley in the mix. The entire tour can be done in only 5 days. So I am just gliding over the facts of this tour, the history and mythological essence can be studied at your own leisure.



 ITINERARY: 
Day 1: Reach Visakhapatnam. (Preferably in the early morning). Visit to some of the places of interest.
Day 2: Catch the train to Araku Valley. Visit Bora caves. Night stay at Araku.
Day 3: Journey back to Visakhapatnam.
Day 4: Realax. Catch a train back.

Obviously you can extend the program by 2-3 days by staying an extra day at Araku and Visakhapatnam.
