About This Itinerary

Rajasthan is literally the Land of the Kings. It is home to the chivalrous Rajputs, and its
battle-scarred heritage is ingrained with pride and tradition. The upper echelons of this
medieval society built magnificent palaces and forts, many of which are now sumptuous hotels
and impressive museums. In addition, stunning handicrafts and fine arts were developed and
nurtured through patronage by the maharajas. Village life remains steeped in tradition but, just
like the rest of India, the pace of change is accelerating. Turbaned men still barter for decorated
camels – they just relay the successful deal home via a smartphone. India's quintessential land
of maharajas and medieval forts, palaces and tigers, and kaleidoscopic festivals. Rajasthan
really is the jewel in India's crown
