Rajasthan Palaces & Lakes
Overview
Rajasthan is India's most regal state — a land of pink-walled cities, moonlit palaces floating on lakes, camel safaris through golden dunes, and fortresses that look carved from the landscape itself. This 8-day royal circuit takes you through the Pink City of Jaipur, the Blue City of Jodhpur, the fairy-tale Lake City of Udaipur, and the golden dunes of Jaisalmer — each with its own character, colour, and cuisine.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there an alternative to the elephant ride at Amber Fort?
Yes. Jeep rides are available and are our default recommendation as they're faster and don't involve working animals.
How is the overnight desert camp?
Camps have comfortable tented bedrooms with proper beds, en-suite facilities, and bonfire dinner with folk music under the stars.
Can I combine this with a Kerala or Goa extension?
Absolutely. We offer seamless extensions from Udaipur to Goa or Kerala. Ask our team at booking.
