Excellent service, food, touring

Staff were exceptionally attentive, interested in providing the best friendly competent service. Food was prepared fresh on the train and was varied and flavourful. Both Indian and Western food were available. I have a food allergy and staff were very conscientious in providing appropriate food choices. Tours were well organized, informative, varied in length, and were professionally conducted, never rushed.
