Trains are deeply embedded in Indian culture and with this in mind – we believe that there is no better way to explore the country. Board the beautiful Palace on Wheels and embark on a royal journey exploring vibrant Rajasthan and the iconic Taj Mahal in Agra, the sandstone havelis in the Thar Dessert and the 7th-Century fort of Chittorgarh. Between each site you can indulge in the opulences of the train journey – passing traditional villages and busy market towns as you relax in your en-suite cabin amongst hand carved furniture and elegant embellishments. Choose your journey based on want to see in India – if for example, you’d like to explore the south – then board the Splendours of the South train in Bangalore to explore Chennai, Pondicherry, Tanjavur and Madurai, or if you’d like to focus your journey on Rajasthan, then embark on an unforgettable journey aboard the Royal Rajasthan on Wheels, or finally, travel with the Deccan Odyssey, Maharaja’s Express, The Golden Chariot & Palace on Wheels on a number of great rail journeys across India taking in the Maharashtra Wild Trail, Spiritual Sahyadri or the Jewels of the Deccan.
