Rajasthan, the 'Land of Princes’, is full of monuments to its warrior past. The imposing forts of Jodhpur and Jaipur bear testament to the battles that once raged here, whilst the palaces in Udaipur, Fatehpur Sikri and the Taj Mahal offer a softer side to North India's rich history. As well as exploring these historic landmarks we also stay in the charming town of Bundi, exploring its blue alleyways, forts and hillside lake, and every year we run a special departure to visit the world-famous Pushkar Camel Fair.

  • Visit the magnificent Taj Mahal
  • Search for the elusive tiger
  • Explore the 'Pearl of Rajasthan', Udaipur

We spend 12 nights in hotels, mostly standard city tourist hotels. Service and amenities are generally adequate.



Worth knowing



Hotels in India usually do not have heating as there are really only a couple of months in the year when the weather can get rather cold. You can request more blankets or the hotel may be able to provide a standing heater for your room. Please talk to your tour leader if you need help in this matter.

Please note, Delhi hotels are increasingly busy and difficult to book. They are also incredibly expensive and do not compare well to other areas of India. Because of overbooking, hotels can cancel bookings and it is not unusual for our hotel to change or for any extra accommodation before or after the trip to be in an alternative hotel. We hope that you understand this situation is beyond our control.
