TCI launches its luxury train journey ‘The Indian Maharaja-Deccan Odyssey’ in the USA

Travel Corporation (India) Limited [TCI], the premier destination management company for India, Mauritius, Sri Lanka and Nepal, today announced the launch of its luxury train journeys – The Indian Maharaja-Deccan Odyssey- offering American travelers unparalleled opulence and exclusivity via a unique and regal rail experience of India.

The Indian Maharaja- Deccan Odyssey, winner of Asia’s Leading Luxury Train, 2010, and nominated for 2011, has been included in the ‘World’s Top 25 Trains’ by The Society of International Railway Travelers.

The exclusive itinerary includes some of the best monuments of the Indian sub-continent: the World Heritage sites of Ajanta and Ellora, Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, Fatehpur Sikri and the like. Halts at Ranthambhore, Udaipur and Jaipur in the royal state of Rajasthan, offer a delightful melange of culture, history and wildlife.

Commenting on the launch Mr. Rakshit Desai, Director, TCI said, “This is a key initiative in the hugely potential US market; in sync with TCI’s considerable equity in luxury leisure travel. The Indian Maharaja-Deccan Odyssey is a perfect blend of Indian heritage, opulence and hospitality making for a truly exotic experience.”

With 7 day all-inclusive itineraries, guests could chose from Silver, Gold or Platinum class travel, each with a host of distinctive facilities. Sight-seeing is conducted via private chauffer-driven cars for Gold and Platinum guests or on a luxury coach for Silver guests, assisted by English speaking guides.

The Indian Maharaja-Deccan Odyssey has 21 climate-controlled suites including 11 aesthetically appointed guest coaches featuring panoramic windows, twin/double cabins, with en suite facilities, channel music, telephone and round the clock dedicated valet service. An array of activities and facilities include a world class spa, functional gymnasium, all day dining, courtesy a Master chef, and a well stocked bar. A key highlight is that the Food & Beverage services are provided by the internationally renowned Taj Group of Hotels and Palaces.

The Indian Maharaja- Deccan Odyssey is akin to a luxury hotel on wheels; travelling at night while you sleep, so you awaken to a new destination each day. This unique journey is sans the hassle of airport security checks and hotel check-in queues, transfers, packing and unpacking— a welcome element of comfort and stress free travel.
