Rajasthan Desert Tour - From Taj Mahal to Thar Desert

Delhi → New Delhi 14 days Up to 19

About this trip

This 14-day route runs from Delhi through Agra, Jaipur, Pushkar, Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Bikaner, and Mandawa, before looping back to New Delhi. It's a proper cross-section of Rajasthan, taking in the big monuments as well as the smaller towns most tourists skip.

The pace slows once you're off the Delhi-Agra-Jaipur golden triangle, giving you time in the desert and rural areas to see a different side of Indian life, from havelis to sand dunes.

Expect forts, palaces, markets, and a mix of guided sightseeing with some free time to wander on your own.
