If you love history, architecture, and comfort, the Palace on Wheels train is the perfect way to explore India. The Palace on Wheels route takes you through Jaipur, Udaipur, Jaisalmer, Jodhpur, and Agra, offering royal treatment throughout. The ambiance inside truly resembles a palace — plush interiors, personalized service, and gourmet meals.
I’m curious — has anyone compared it with other luxury trains like the Maharajas’ Express or Deccan Odyssey? Would love to know how it stands out for others!

While Maharajas' Express feels more modern and upscale with a greater emphasis on luxury amenities, Palace on Wheels is the traditional option with more charm and legacy. In terms of route variety, Deccan Odyssey is superior, particularly if you like to travel to western India.
