Luxury Trains in Rajasthan
Palace on Wheels
We welcome you the Royal Experience of the Maharajas of Rajasthan and if you are really looking for a holiday of a lifetime, the Palace On Wheels is for you.
The name "Palace on Wheels" was derived from its royal back-ground of the coaches.
The passenger coaches which were originally meant to be the personal railway coaches of the erstwhile rulers of princely states of Rajputana, Gujarat, the Nizam of Hyderabad and the Viceroy of British India. These coaches were not being used by the Indian Railways after independence in normal passenger trains on account of very rich and traditional interiors.
The Royal Rajasthan on Wheels has been among the most anticipated trains in the history of Indian luxury vehicles. Much of this could be attributed to the fact that it is offering facilities that have never been offered before by any Indian luxury train.
The Royal Rajasthan on Wheels has been equipped with the latest facilities so that the tourists have no reason for complaints. The travelers would be able to avail facilities like super deluxe saloons and retro lounges at the Royal Rajasthan on Wheels – something which has not been done before.
