If you’re seduced by the romance of train travel, the new Maharajas' Express is your ultimate honeymoon. Experience much that India has to offer from mountains to jungles, deserts to forts – all from the luxury of the world’s most opulent train. Book the Presidential Suite and you’ll have an entire carriage to yourselves.

Launched in 2010, the Maharajas’ Express is the first pan-India luxury train.
Offering state-of-the-art comfort, it offers four very different and exciting itineraries that take you into the heart of India from the palaces of Rajasthan to the Holy city of Varanasi and Ranthambore National Park to name but a few sites and sights en route.
The train features a choice of 42 cabins and suites and the one-carriage Presidential Suite. Every cabin has large panoramic windows, air cushioned suspension and many have double beds (we believe this is the only luxury train in the world to offer double beds); the suites have a bathtub too.
Join your fellow passengers in the lavishly appointed bar carriage, the Observation carriage with its own bar, games table and club armchairs and choose from two fine-dining restaurants.
This is truly the ultimate way to see India in style. There are four 11-night itineraries from Mumbai to Delhi and vice versa, and Delhi to Calcutta and vice versa.
All passengers in suites and the Presidential Suite also have the services of a private air-conditioned car and driver whenever the train stops for some sight-seeing.
It’s ideal for an adventurous couple who want to cover a lot of ground in India and gain access to sights they would not normally get to see – all in the lap of luxury. Twin it with a week on the beach for the perfect two-centre honeymoon.
