Deccan Odyssey short tour packages for local tourists in works

Super luxury train Deccan Odyssey may soon come up with attractive short tour packages for domestic tourists.
"We do get domestic tourists, but we have planned and strategised to come up with short tour packages for Indian tourists," said Arup Sen, director (special projects), Cox and Kings, which operates the train, during an interaction with reporters.
The meet was organised to showcase the grandeur and splendour of the train at the Great India Travel Bazaar.
The train attracts tourists, mostly from the Great Britain, the US, Australia and the Middle-East.
"In the palatial train, you discover more than one facet of India on any of the enchanting journeys. In a single journey, you can experience a world-class vineyard, a UNESCO heritage site and elusive Indian tiger, all in a matter of three nights," Sen said.

The train consists of 21 luxury coaches with four resplendent presidential suites with exquisite decor and modern amenities, providing occupancy to 88 passengers.
"The train will undergo overhauling for the next six months and will come up with pneumatic suspension system, bio-degradable toilets etc when it takes its next journey," he added.
