After exploring the building and its grounds, indulge in a high tea, complete with champagne, at Taj Khema. As evening falls, head back to the train to relax before dinner, or opt for a five star spa treatment at a nearby hotel, or Mohabbat The Taj Show, an unforgettable entertainment experience comprising a series of plays dedicated to matters of the heart.

Climbing back on board the Maharajas Express mid-morning, the train will then depart for Ranthambore, with brunch served as you travel towards the majestic National Park.

Home to some of the world’s rarest and most exotic species, such as the elusive tiger, while on the game drive you will have a chance at catching glimpse of these incredible animals. Returning to the train as afternoon turns into evening, an Indian Evening will begin shortly after departure, with dinner included, as the Maharajas Express leaves for Jaipur.
