印度火車包車半自助遊(一)

生怕沒有人再來我的blog瀏覽,忙極也找來已往的行程和喜愛自助遊的人分享.這是2006年1月十六天印度行.嘩!已經是四年前了...

幸好我喜愛到那些發展中的國家,又或是歐洲的建築與自然風景,不然,如果我現在才和大家分享四年前的東京,曼谷,你一定會笑我OUT!

這次印度之行,用了一個特別的旅遊模式,包車+火車半自助遊.其實我也不清楚自助遊的定義,於我來說自助遊等於不跟團,並在當地用公車旅遊.

可是印度是個比較混亂的國家,治安並不是我的最大考慮,反而是我未夠EQ去應付出了名麻煩的印度人.我最討厭講價,又沒有耐性,實在未夠道行在印度全自助遊.加上我急性子,希望多遊幾個城市,所以選擇了用火車來連接不同的城市.

Jan 21 Arrive New Delhi at 1320 hours
Evening tour of Old Delhi, visiting Jamia Mosque, Red Fort, Ghandi Samadi, walk through the small lanes of Chandni Chowk.
Accommodation: Hotel Ivory Palace

以另類交通工具環遊世界的旅程要展開了!主持Sebastien Lafont年紀輕輕,已是一名熱氣球探險家,他乘坐熱氣球到世界不同角落探險,探訪居於偏遠地區的傳統部落。過程中,Sebastien從各土著的生活、居住環境及飲食,了解到他們的習俗,更與當地居民成為好友。
Sebastien為了報答當地居民,特意邀請他們登上他的「交通工具」熱氣球,讓他們從空中這一個他們從未嘗試過的角度,欣賞這個美麗的地球。

因為不知道有這個節目,錯過了第一集.第二集於我來說相當吸引,主持人坐熱氣球深入秘魯山區,住在當地印加人的家中,和他們一起下田,掘薯仔;到Maras鹽田採鹽; 到Chinchero參加節日舞蹈巡遊.他樂在其中的節日應該是我今年有幸遇上的聖十字架節.

他的off the beaten track,燃起我第三次遊Cusco 的想法...

最後,想說 "秘魯不只有馬丘比丘及Nasca Line”.

下一集,墨西哥,明珠台, 一月十九日起(星期二)晚上9時30分
