A most amazing trip

"I travelled on the Golden Chariot in January 2010 and it was one of the most satisfying journeys I ever had! The food was absolutely delicious and the staff are very helpful and, genuinely, nothing is too much trouble for them. . The only critical point may-be the overpriced beer and other alcoholic drinks. They are really expensive. Air conditioning is a problem though. Would have been much better had they provided individual climate control. As far as itinerary goes I enjoyed it thoroughly. Hampi and Hospet were my personal fave. Indeed VERY comfortable way of touring South India and visiting the amazing sights"
