    Hi Pallavi-

    What time of year will you visit? How long will you stay? Do you have particular interests or things that you really want to see or do?

    Usually, train travel is the best way to go for a first time trip, but, if you have special interests, a car may be appropriate.

    You should note that some towns that are popular with tourists do not allow cars; you must park nearby or take a train/bus/cable car to get to them.

    This section of the forum might help you decide –

    I am an proficient traveler and auto lover that’s why to rent a car is the best way for me. Traveling by car you can see ​a country or ​a city from all sides.
