Luxury Train Tours in India

India's luxury trains are journeys in themselves — palace interiors on wheels, fine dining and guided excursions by day. Bakkiya Tours & Travels books every one of them, from the Maharajas' Express and Palace on Wheels to the Golden Chariot and the heritage hill railways, and arranges your travel to the boarding city and the nights either side. Browse the journeys below.

Luxury train journeys

Good to know before you book

India's luxury trains run mainly in the cooler October-to-April season and sell out months ahead, so book as early as your dates allow. The fare typically covers your cabin with en-suite bathroom, all meals on board, guided off-train excursions and a personal attendant; drinks, tips and personal spending are usually extra. Dress is smart-casual, and boarding is at a set station and time — we confirm every detail in writing before you travel.
