Your suggested itinerary

Day 01

Welcome to Delhi

Begin your journey in Delhi. We will agree your arrival or meeting arrangements in advance and keep the first day realistic for your travel schedule. Settle into your stay and discuss the days ahead with your local contact.

Suggested overnight: Delhi
Day 02

Delhi to Mandawa

Continue from Delhi to Mandawa using the transport arrangements agreed in your quotation. Allow the travel day its own space, with sightseeing added only where timings make it comfortable. Depending on timing, your plan can include: Explore haveli streets at a walking pace. Alternatively, leave this visit for your next full day.

Suggested overnight: Mandawa
Day 03

Mandawa to Bikaner

Continue from Mandawa to Bikaner using the transport arrangements agreed in your quotation. Allow the travel day its own space, with sightseeing added only where timings make it comfortable. Depending on timing, your plan can include: Explore Junagarh Fort. Alternatively, leave this visit for your next full day.

Suggested overnight: Bikaner
Day 04

Bikaner to Jaisalmer

Continue from Bikaner to Jaisalmer using the transport arrangements agreed in your quotation. Allow the travel day its own space, with sightseeing added only where timings make it comfortable. Depending on timing, your plan can include: Explore the fort area with a local guide. Alternatively, leave this visit for your next full day.

Suggested overnight: Jaisalmer
Day 05

Discover Jaisalmer

Jaisalmer takes you further west into Rajasthan’s desert landscape. Its sandstone architecture and carved havelis reward close attention, while a carefully chosen desert excursion adds a very different experience. The journey here is part of the plan, so allow enough time rather than squeeze it into a short circuit. Your planned visits will be selected around opening schedules and the pace you prefer.

Suggested overnight: Jaisalmer
Day 06

Jaisalmer to Jodhpur

Continue from Jaisalmer to Jodhpur using the transport arrangements agreed in your quotation. Allow the travel day its own space, with sightseeing added only where timings make it comfortable. Depending on timing, your plan can include: Explore Mehrangarh Fort. Alternatively, leave this visit for your next full day.

Suggested overnight: Jodhpur
Day 07

Discover Jodhpur

Jodhpur is a city of dramatic contrasts: the scale of Mehrangarh above, and the intimate lanes of the old city below. The best day gives each its own time. Walk with a guide if you want help navigating the neighbourhoods and understanding the stories behind the streets. Your planned visits will be selected around opening schedules and the pace you prefer.

Suggested overnight: Jodhpur
Day 08

Jodhpur to Udaipur

Continue from Jodhpur to Udaipur using the transport arrangements agreed in your quotation. Allow the travel day its own space, with sightseeing added only where timings make it comfortable. Depending on timing, your plan can include: Explore the City Palace complex. Alternatively, leave this visit for your next full day.

Suggested overnight: Udaipur
Day 09

Discover Udaipur

Udaipur is a natural place to slow down after a busy overland journey. Palace terraces, lakeside lanes and the changing evening light create a different rhythm from Rajasthan’s desert cities. Choose a characterful stay and leave some unplanned time for the city itself. Your planned visits will be selected around opening schedules and the pace you prefer.

Suggested overnight: Udaipur
Day 10

Udaipur to Jaipur

Continue from Udaipur to Jaipur using the transport arrangements agreed in your quotation. Allow the travel day its own space, with sightseeing added only where timings make it comfortable. Depending on timing, your plan can include: Discover Amber Fort and its architectural details. Alternatively, leave this visit for your next full day.

Suggested overnight: Jaipur
Day 11

Discover Jaipur

Jaipur brings together palace architecture, hilltop fortifications and the energy of a working city. A good visit balances the major sights with time to absorb its streets and markets. We can shape the day around architecture, photography or simply a relaxed introduction to Rajasthan. Your planned visits will be selected around opening schedules and the pace you prefer.

Suggested overnight: Jaipur
Day 12

Departure or onward travel

Enjoy any free time that your schedule allows, then continue with your agreed departure arrangements. Travel from Jaipur towards Delhi; the mode of transport and timing will be confirmed in your proposal. If you would like an extra night, we can adapt the route.
