£15 First Class Train to India’s Holiest City 🇮🇳

In this India travel vlog, I begin a new journey from Lucknow to Varanasi, two of North India’s most historic cities. As a Muslim traveller exploring India, I wanted to experience what it’s like to take a first-class sleeper train, one of the most comfortable ways to travel across the country. From the moment I arrived at Lucknow Railway Station, I was surrounded by the hustle, energy, and excitement that make train journeys in India so special. I take you step-by-step through the full experience — boarding the train, exploring the cabin, and showing what a 1st class sleeper train in India is really like. The comfort, privacy, and small details give an incredible insight into how India’s railway system connects millions of people daily. After a peaceful night’s journey, I arrive in Varanasi, one of the most spiritual and culturally rich cities in India. From the station, I take a tuktuk ride through the busy streets to my hotel, which cost around £40 a night, and get my first impressions of the city’s atmosphere. As a Muslim visiting Varanasi, I wanted to learn more about the people, the traditions, and how different communities live side by side in this ancient city. Later, I head out in search of halal food, exploring the local streets and trying a freshly made vegetable samosa, one of India’s most popular snacks. I then walk down to the Ganges River, where I meet locals, ask questions about the city’s history and culture, and listen to their stories about life in Varanasi. The Ganges is a sacred place for millions, and being there as a Muslim traveller was a truly unique experience — full of reflection, curiosity, and respect for India’s incredible diversity. This video captures the real experience of travelling through India as a Muslim, showing both the comfort of modern train travel and the deep cultural heritage that makes the country so fascinating. Whether you’re a Muslim traveller, an Indian viewer, or simply someone who loves authentic travel vlogs, this journey from Lucknow to Varanasi will give you a genuine look into daily life, faith, and the people that make India so unforgettable. ––––––––––– 📍 Locations: Lucknow → Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India 🚆 Journey: 1st Class Sleeper Train 🍴 Food: Halal and local street food in Varanasi 🎥 Theme: Muslim travel vlog / India vlog / Real experiences ––––––––––– ✅ Instagram:   / islamlewis   ✅ TikTok:   / islam.lewis   ✅ Work With Me: [email protected]
