Experience 'Royal Rajasthan on Wheels'

MeghnaAgarwal · Aug 27, 2010

Until now, the world is in awe of the Palace on Wheels - considered the ultimate in luxury travel in India or say, Rajasthan in particular. Well, now let me take you on a journey to Rajasthan - the magnificent land of numerous kingdoms, majestic forts and palaces, diverse cultures, varied landscapes and vibrant colours with Royal Rajasthan on Wheels - another presentation from the makers of the Palace on Wheels.

This train is newly built and designed in a contemporary royal style. You will be delighted with the magnificent interiors, sumptuous meals, expensive wines, and personalised service by the Khidmatgars, the likes of which you would rarely experience.

The luxurious Royal Rajasthan on Wheels takes you through a seven day exploration of the vibrant Rajasthan. The magic of the splendid journey begins at New Delhi and prepares you to weave the fabric of delightful imagination becoming reality over the next seven days. Your royal journey begins from Delhi and takes you through various erstwhile princely states of Jaipur, Jaisalmer, Jodhpur, Sawai Madhopur, Chittorgarh, Udaipur and Bharatpur.

Aavo hamare des!

Apart from the warm welcome you receive, followed by the diligent service from the meticulously trained attendants, your Khidmatgars who will serve you round the clock, your journey in the royal luxury train will be your closest encounter with fairy tale, believe me.

There are deluxe and super deluxe coaches on Royal Rajasthan on Wheels, which are also called Saloons. The 13 deluxe coaches have been rightly named after the famous palaces of Rajasthan - Hawa Mahal, Chandra Mahal, Surya Mahal, Moti Mahal, Sukh Mahal, Jal Mahal, Padmini Mahal, Kishori Mahal, Phool Mahal, Jogi Mahal, Kumbha Palace, Umaid Palace, Lalgarh Palace. The Super-Deluxe coach is Taj Mahal.

Indian Railways is really very proud to have these heritage trains like Royal Rajasthan and Palace on Wheels. Many more are slowly coming up and most foreigners I have met outside India who have experianced these journeys are speechless and wonderstruck. It is of course, an individual experiance and worth the cost. Thanks for the information
