Choose Your Transport Wisely**:

Book in Advance**:
For trains, early bookings can save you money, especially during peak travel times. For buses, check for discounts on group bookings or round trips.
Timing is Key**:
Plan your trip to avoid rush hours, typically from 7-9 AM and 5-7 PM. Early morning or late evening travel is often more pleasant and less crowded.
Luggage Considerations**:
On trains, there are no strict luggage limits, but ensure that your bags are manageable. For buses, check the carrier’s policy—usually, one large and one small bag is allowed. Always keep valuables close.
No Border Crossings**:
The journey is domestic, so no border crossing hassles. However, ensure you have a valid ID on hand, as some transport services may require it for identification.
