Rajasthan is royal India at its most colourful – the pink city of Jaipur with Amber Fort and Hawa Mahal, the lakes and palaces of Udaipur, the blue city of Jodhpur under Mehrangarh Fort and the golden dunes of Jaisalmer. Many trips start with the Golden Triangle, linking Delhi, Agra's Taj Mahal and Jaipur.
Most trips are 4 to 8 nights by road, starting from Delhi or Jaipur, with heritage hotels, folk music and Rajasthani thalis along the way. Chokhi Dhani and desert camps make evenings special. Every Trip Inventor package can be customised with palace stays, a car with driver or train options.
