train from Kota to Goa

Hi

I am trying to figure out a train from kota to goa? I can't understand the website- what days does it run? I want to arrive in Goa sometime on Dec 30th- does it run from kota on the 29th? Also is it over night? What is the major difference bt the AC classes?

Also I am taking a train from agra to Jaipur- early in the trip- should I do the overnight train or will I miss the scenery? But if I take an AC class will I be able to see anything anyway?

What are the costs of getting a car vs taking the train? For instance how much would an AC ticket from Agra to Jaipur cost vs a car? How do I find a car?

Sorry for all the questions!

Also one more thing- I had a travel agent quote me the price of $470 USD for an Air conditioned Indica car for all the the travel services listed below (inclusive of parking, toll taxes, state taxes etc.. ) around the transportation cost for the entire trip for the services- is this a good deal?

Thank you SO much for any and all feedback!!!!

Book the Kota-Goa train NOW.

And you'll have to book Kota to Trivandrum in the Rajdhani, it'll cost Rs 2875 in 2AC or Rs 2205 in 3AC.

Train 2432 departs Kota at 15:40 and gets to Madgaon at 12:30 the following day. (the times on the website will be different as the monsoon timetable is in operstion till November.

2A is the curtained (ignorant) class, 3A has more people but an overall better experience.

Book NOW, don't ask questions, book now and ask later.

The booking for Delhi - Goa opened today (or yesterday) and has already sold out, you'd be amazed to find that you're not the only one who wants to get to Goa for NYE.

Book now while you can.
