Experience the ROYALTY, Maharaja (kings) experienced it in the yester years.

      

Thanks to the innovation and dedicated efforts of the Rajasthan Tourism Development Corporation, Indian Railways, the State Government of Rajasthan and the Government of India, the possibility of traveling in royal splendor of a bygone era  has become a reality with the introduction of this splendid travel.

 

The train chugs out of Delhi cantonment on a week-long run through Rajasthan every Wednesday night, with a trip also inbuilt to Agra and the Taj Mahal. Turban-wearing attendants take over from the moment you arrive at the platform, assigning you your coupes and detailing all the facilities that are on board. The train moves by night and arrives each morning at a new destination, where new experiences await you. If you are an early riser, you will see the sun rise over the horizon of the desert, a golden orb that flames in pastel colour before it ignites into brilliant orange as it mounts higher. So it has done for million years, and so it has been watched on its journey by thousands of them, residents of the desert; Suryavanshi and Chandravanshi, descended from the Sun and the Moon – incredible! It is not easy it is to believe but it is all true!
