Ahmedabad's stepwells and textile bazaars lie a long way from the railway junctions of Uttar Pradesh. Tundla is a busy rail hub just outside Agra, and the journey crosses Rajasthan before it reaches the plains of the north. You can go by train or fly to Agra and finish the trip by road.
Ahmedabad to Tundla by Train
The train is the classic way to travel between the two cities and the cheapest. It is a long overnight ride, so you wake up to the fields of Uttar Pradesh.
Sleeper Class (SL)
Sleeper Class is the non-air-conditioned coach of Indian Railways, with open windows, padded berths and station vendors calling through the carriage. It is the budget choice and suits travellers who are happy with basic comforts. Bring your own blanket and pillow, because bedding is not provided in this class. Book as early as your dates allow, as popular long-distance trains fill up weeks ahead.
