What can be a more truly Indian experience than a train journey from one part of the country to another? Whether in the train or at stations, it is microcosmic of an Indian way of life. 

In other parts of the world, travel is an interlude as you go from one place to another, a suspension of time; for the time it takes you to reach your destination your are suspended in motion. But in India life continues – on the trains, on platforms, at stations. People cook, eat, wash their clothes, bathe, quarrel, make friends, laugh, cry, pray, meditate, sleep – the whole gamut of living and being.

• Can you hear the whistle? 

• Can you hear the chug-chug on the railway tracks? 

• Can you feel the rhythm of the moving train? 

       Then hurry, don’t miss your train!  

The Palace – On – Wheels

An extraordinary train for extraordinary people. A train with historic charm and modern conveniences. A royal train beckoning you to step aboard for a week of splendour. It takes you on a royal odyssey.

The 14 coaches of the Palace-On-Wheels with rich decor that evokes the age of Rajput chivalry, are named after former royal Rajput states – Kota , Jaipur, Udaipur , Jaisalmer, Jodhpur , Bikaner , Alwar, Sirohi, Kishangarh, Bundi, Dungarpur, Bharatpur, Jhalawar and Dholpur. As most of the traveling is done at night, your days are left free – for discovering the delights of Rajasthan.
