Rajasthan Tour by Train - Frequently Asked Questions(FAQs)

Q.1 Are Railway Stations safe?

You need to follow the same precautions at a station that you would at any crowded public space - keep an eye on your belongings at all times, and don't keep your wallet in a position that is easily accessible to any opportunistic pickpockets.

See More

Q.2 How safe is my luggage on the journey?

If you're travelling by a sitting class (Executive Class, AC Chair Car, Second Class Sitting), luggage is stored on racks above the windows.
Since you're unlikely to be away from your seat for particularly extended periods, you shouldn't have too much to worry about here.
With sleeping classes (any reserved class except the three classes mentioned above), luggage is stored under the lower berth or the side-lower berth, depending on which berth you have. you don't have too much to worry about either, as you can bolt the cabin/coupe shut at night, so nobody can steal your belongings as you sleep.

See More

Q.3 What's the food like on trains? Is food included in the cost of my ticket?

Premier trains like the Shatabdi, Rajdhani and Duronto Expresses include food in the fare of your ticket and serve it to you at your seat. On other trains, food needs to be purchased separately.
There are no restaurant cars on Indian trains - you can buy food from passing vendors. Alternatively, an attendant will usually appear before mealtimes, asking you whether you'd like a meal and listing out the options available, usually limited to "veg" and "non-veg", which is delivered to your seat a little later.

See More

Q.4 Trains have toilets, right?

Yes, they do - every coach has four (some classes have just three) toilets. Toilets are located at the ends of the coach, near the entrance, and - depending on your luck - can range from being reasonably clean to incredibly smelly and dirty.
