Our ‘Essential Rajasthan with the Taj’ itinerary idea takes in all the must-see sites of India’s Golden Triangle and beyond, such as Jaipur, Jodhpur and Udaipur. You’ll also experience a change of pace and a glimpse at an older, more rural Rajasthan with its impossibly romantic desert forts, dramatic scenery and wildlife.
We’ve suggested mixing opulent city hotels, perfect for escaping the clamour outside, with peacefully charming but quirky heritage properties in converted Rajput residences, used for entertaining visitors from time immemorial.
Highlights include:
- Marvel at the timeless magnificence of the Taj Mahal, the disorderliness of Delhi and colourful Jaipur
- Escape the madness into the gorgeous surrounds of Fort Barli and the Rajasthani countryside
- Discover the Bishnoi people and their relationship with local wildlife, including the very rare Blackbuck Antelope
- Stay on the banks of Lake Pichola in romantic and laid back Udaipur
For those with more time, we’d suggest slowing it down and spending a few more days exploring the countryside or relaxing in or just outside of Udaipur at the end of your holiday. All hotels are suggestions and will be adjusted to suit.
As with all of our suggested itineraries, we can tailor-make your holiday to suit your budget, style and expectations. Find out how it works with our exclusive ‘Journey Planner’ here.
