Private Jewels of Rajasthan Tour

Always central to the region’s identity, Rajasthan’s flamboyance reaches its most arresting heights in the palaces and forts erected by the local Rajput maharajas. Bountiful trade and expedient military alliances with the Mughals paid for a building boom of lavish proportio.

Rajasthan – literally ‘Land of Kings’ – conforms to a popular ideal of romantic India, boasting more maharajas’ palaces, camel treks and colourful festivals than you could experience in a lifetime.

Itineraries tend to revolve around the state’s main cities, each of which is distinguished by a different hue: the salmon pink of the capital, Jaipur.
