About The Royal Orient
Welcome aboard The Royal Orient ! Welcome to a rare delight, a special experience. Rare, because in our fast - paced lives, it is not often, that we can take time off to unwind, and taste the pleasures of our own culture. Special, because your journey will transport you, and your family, back in time : to the age of the Maharajas. To take you there is The Royal Orient - one of the world's most exotic trains. Weave through two of India's most culturally fascinating states, Gujarat and Rajasthan. Cross the Indian deserts at nights, and take day trips to fascinating places by luxury coach.

The Royal Orient will transport you to palaces and forts, steeped in legends of heroism and chivalry. You can savour the palpable spirituality of an ancient Jain temple-city. You can soak your feet in the warm waters of the Arabian sea, and laze on the beach. You can safari in dense jungles, and feast your eyes on the only surviving lions, outside of Africa. You can shop for exquisite handicrafts, as old as time itself, in shops blaring Michael Jackson music. The Royal Orient has been provided with personalised service, the kind that only royalty were privileged with. A cuisine truly fit for kings and queens. Thirteen coaches and saloons, inspired by mighty kingdoms.

A joint venture of the Tourism Corporation of Gujarat Limited and the Indian Railways, The Royal Orient promises you seven memorable days and nights; those that will leave an indelible impression on your consciousness - waking up to see the Aravalli range spanning the horizon, watching the moon gradually rise up, through the twilight to glimmer on domes and minarets of a lost era, liveried attendants to take utmost care of your every need.

The Royal Orient comes equipped with all the modern conveniences you would expect - air-conditioned cabins, the 'Watering Hole' bar with all your favourite drinks, running hot and cold water, spacious baths, clean and comfortable cabins, multicuisine restaurants and a library.
