It may only be a tiny slice of India’s vast subcontinent, but Rajasthan is India’s largest state by area, and now thanks to the untapped wealth of history, culture and encapsulating colour, Rajasthan is fast becoming a must-see destination.
The impossible beauty of India is something that anyone who travels there will understand. It’s a feeling, a sentiment that you can never quite shake, and Rajasthan is no different.
Home to some of Asia’s most spectacular landscapes, deserts, spice hills and tranquil backwaters, thriving cities and dramatic forts, India offers a diversity of remarkable experiences.
For first time visitors, the Highlights of Rajasthan Tour, curated by Insider Journeys, is the perfect introduction to this magnificent destination.
The tour allows you to immerse yourself in the iconic Indian monuments of Delhi and Agra and bask in the awe-inspiring grandeur of Rajasthan’s hilltop forts. Get lost in the Thar Desert, where a luxurious desert oasis awaits and spend the night under the stars. Travel to the Blue City of Jodhpur, and wander through the street bazaar before taking in the spectacular Mehrangarh Fort.
Take a trip out of the heaving city, to the tribal villages outside Jodhpur on a desert jeep safari, where you will be introduced to the local farmers and get to experience first hand the traditional craftsmanship of its people.
The last stop is Udaipur, one of the world’s most romantic cities. Soak in the history of World Heritage-listed Jain Temples at Ranakpur and wander the lakeside streets on the way to the grand City Palace.
Take in the Lake Palace, a fairytale vision rising from Lake Pichola and say goodbye to India in style with a farewell dinner.
