Royal Rajasthan on Wheels
A new and more luxurious Palace on Wheels is here to
take you on a magical trip of Rajasthan. This new luxurious train is the
Royal Rajasthan on Wheels. Launched by the Rajasthan government and Indian
Railways, Royal Rajasthan on Wheels is meant to give more and more tourists
a luxurious ride through the royal state of Rajasthan.

The
destination covered by the brand new luxury train is not very different from
existing Palace on Wheels. Following is the route chart of the Royal
Rajasthan on Wheels:
Delhi - Jodhpur - Udaipur/Chittorgarh - Sawai Madhopur - Jaipur - Khajuraho (M.P.) - Varanasi (U.P.) - Agra (U.P.) - Delhi (Safdarjung)
Very little modifications in the route means that travellers have an
opportunity to enjoy the same destinations as covered by Palace on Wheels
with more luxury on board. This also means that those who have already had
an opportunity to travel on the Palace on Wheels, have something different
to experience on this journey.
