Dining

Lounge Cars

One way to look at this train is where it goes and what it does––and the spectacular region through which it travels. It is a great way to experience Rajasthan. A few changes––thicker towels, nicer amenities, better food––could vault this train into true luxury service. A few tweaks in the program would make passengers much happier:  The major complaint of our travelers is they do not like organized shopping stops.  But our most recent travelers have given the Palace on Wheels very high marks, stressing the excellent service, which means the train is taking our evaluations seriously.
