I wanted to share some helpful information about the Maharaja Express Train for those planning a luxury rail journey in India. One of the most common questions I see is “When does Maharaja Express depart?”, so here’s a concise guide that covers everything from departure dates to routes, ticket prices, cabins, and what to expect from this iconic luxury train in India experience.

The Maharaja Express operates seasonally, typically from late September/October through March/April each year. During this period, departures are scheduled regularly depending on the specific Maharaja Express route you choose. There are a few popular journeys, including:
Indian Panorama — A 6-night / 7-day classic tour covering historic gems like Delhi, Jaipur, Ranthambore, Agra and more.
Indian Splendour — Another 6-night / 7-day itinerary that includes destinations such as Delhi and Mumbai with cultural and heritage highlights.
Heritage of India — A week-long journey through Rajasthan and northern India’s major heritage sites.
Treasures of India — A shorter 3-night / 4-day trip focusing on the Golden Triangle (Delhi-Agra-Jaipur).
These journeys usually depart on selected Sundays (for longer tours) and on Wednesdays & Sundays (for Treasures of India) throughout the season. Exact Maharaja Express departure dates vary each year, so it’s best to check the official schedule or your travel agent for the latest calendar.
