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: DelhiDay 02
Discover Delhi
Delhi rewards a little patience and a curious guide. Mughal courtyards, lively market lanes and the broad avenues of New Delhi reveal very different sides of the capital. Start gently after your flight, then make room for both the celebrated landmarks and the smaller details of everyday life. Your planned visits will be selected around opening schedules and the pace you prefer.
Suggested overnight: DelhiDay 03
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: MandawaDay 04
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: BikanerDay 05
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: JaisalmerDay 06
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: JaisalmerDay 07
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: JodhpurDay 08
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: JodhpurDay 09
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: UdaipurDay 10
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: UdaipurDay 11
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: JaipurDay 12
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: JaipurDay 13
Jaipur to Delhi
Continue from Jaipur to Delhi 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 lanes of Old Delhi with a local guide. Alternatively, leave this visit for your next full day.
Suggested overnight: DelhiDay 14
