India’s railway network is one of the largest and busiest in the world with over 12,000 passenger trains a day, 6,800 stations and 65,000 kilometres of tracks that criss cross the country. Journeys by train have always captivated travellers with the promise of relaxed travel and since the introduction of a handful of luxury trains a journey across this vast country at a leisurely pace, in great style and comfort, captures the romance and nostalgia of the grand train journeys.
Many of the luxury train journeys end in Delhi or Mumbai, making it so very easy to extend your journey through India. Perhaps take another train and travel from Mumbai to Goa for a relaxing beach stay or a short flight to many other wonderful places. Our India Specialists can reserve your luxury train journey and custom design a private journey to travel before or after your train experience.
