About this trip

This is a 15-day journey through Rajasthan, built around the state's palaces, forts and centuries of royal history. You travel at an easy pace, based in some of the most authentic heritage hotels the region has to offer, many of them former royal residences.

It's a trip for people who want to feel the weight of history rather than rush past it — architecture, craftsmanship and old-world hospitality are the focus, alongside a safari element for wildlife along the way.

Fully guided throughout, with a small group and the option to personalise elements of the route.
