Rajasthan tours & holidays

Meet the real Rajasthan

There are plenty of big-ticket attractions in India’s northern state, like exploring Amber Palace and the Pink City of Jaipur. But the real magic lies in the ebb and flow of daily life – like witnessing locals worshipping along the ghats in Pushkar or heading out on a rickshaw food tour run by local women. Sure, it’s home to the Golden Triangle route and its famous sites, but there’s so much more to explore when you dive deeper into the real Rajasthan. Think camping under the stars in the Thar Desert after a thrilling 4WD ride, looking out for the elusive tiger in one of its many national parks, or cycling around Lake Pichola in Udaipur. Are you ready for an adventure?

Go Premium in the Pink City

Jaipur was painted pink as a symbol of hospitality to welcome Prince Albert, and that warm spirit still defines the city today. Discover the Pink City in Premium comfort with a stay at a heritage hotel run by the same family since 1928. Surrounded by gardens, swimming pools and the welcoming atmosphere of a traditional family home, you’ll sit down for a home-cooked dinner with a local family and gain a genuine insight into everyday life in Jaipur.

Fall in love with the White City of Udaipur

You might fall in love with Udaipur, known as the ‘Venice of the East’ and India’s most romantic city. The City of Lakes is filled with white marble in its palaces and structures, which you can see rising from the water on a boat ride around Lake Pichola or cycling along its banks. It's also a popular centre for the arts, so maybe catch a cultural performance while you’re there and really immerse yourself in all this city has to offer.

Explore bazaars in the Blue City of Jodhpur

As well as the best lassis in India (according to locals), Jodhpur is famous for its brilliant bazaars and antique shops among its vibrant blue houses. Colourful piles of spices, beautifully embellished saris, sparkling bangles and homemade carpets – you’ll find anything and everything in these twisted alleyways. If you’re feeling curious about local life and traditions, head to the nearby Bishnoi villages for a glimpse into rural Rajasthani life.
