Palace on Wheels - The Journey

Palace on Wheels Train, IndiaThere are many trains in this world which are much more luxurious and full of opulence, but there are very few that can give you the kind of experience Palace on Wheels gives you throughout its 7-night journey through Rajasthan. From the pink city of Jaipur to the desert city of Jaisalmer and from the blue city of Jodhpur to the lake city of Udaipur - Palace on Wheels is one incredible journey where you would like to soak everything - the color, the music, the dances, the architecture, the wildlife, and the bird life.

If Rajasthan is a land of kings than it is no surprise that it is also home to the king of jungle - the Royal Bengal Tiger. The largest cat in the world has its natural habitation at Ranthambore near Sawai Madhopur. You can also savour the site of Siberian avifauna at much publicized bird sanctuary at Bharatpur during this trip.

But, there is nothing in this world that can equal the joy of watching Taj Mahal for the first time. There is nothing comparable to the beauty of this great memorial that an Emperor built for his beloved wife. Taj Mahal is obviously unparalleled but far more when you look at it for the first time.

Palace on Wheels is the only tour of Rajasthan that shows you so much of this great land within this small timeframe. Any land tour of Rajasthan with all these destinations can take almost 15 days for you to complete. But the beauty of this train journey is such that it lets you explore the same places within 8 days.
