Royal Rajasthan On Wheels – (back-to-back special episodes)
Tuesday, January 26 at 5.30pm, 6:00pm and 6:30pm
Royal Rajasthan on Wheels …an adventure as you criss-cross Rajasthan on perhaps India’s most luxurious train. Along the way while Amrita joins an old fashioned mehphil in Jaipur, co-host Arun Thapar feels the part while on an elephant ride along the ramparts of Amer Fort. They then head to Jaisalmer, where Arun meets the man who unravels his biggest treasure, the longest moustache in Jaisalmer.
En-route - Jodhpur is true to its reputation of being one of Rajasthan's most photogenic cities. Amrita follows a professional photographer who finds images of the town’s true character, while Arun basks in glory of Mehrangarh fort and Umaid Bhawan. Next on their route is Ranthambhore National Park, where a tiger called Machhali provides Arun, also a budding photographer, plenty of opportunity to practise his skills behind the camera.
End of the journey- The journey aboard Royal Rajasthan on Wheels takes a dramatic turn at the sound and light show in Chittorgarh. In Udaipur, a new passenger boards the train. It’s Suhel Seth. Will RROW make his exacting standards? The trio finally arrives in Agra where they are left speechless at the sight of the Taj.
