Welcome to Delhi - the buzzing city where centuries-old forts meet full-throttle city life. Meet your crew and Trip Manager tonight, before we head out for dinner at a local restaurant to kick things off properly.
Morning, travellers. We’ll kick off in Old Delhi with a photo stop at the Red Fort, then hop on rickshaws through the buzzing lanes to Jama Masjid. Next up, we’ll swing by India Gate, cruise past the President’s House and government buildings, then stop at Gandhi’s House to round things off. Hungry? You can opt in to an Old Delhi food tour this evening and taste your way through the chaos.Tonight we’ll board a basic overnight train to Bikaner and travel proper local-style. You’ll be in 6-berth sleeper compartments with bedding included. Your bags kept in-cabin (space is tight, so an overnight bag will be your best mate). Settle in, get some rest, and let the rhythm of the rails do the work while we roll towards Rajasthan.
Hello Rajasthan! We'll jump off our overnight train and have brekkie at our homestay. We're now fueled and ready to head out and explore Junagarh Fort (one of the region’s most impressive strongholds and seriously stunning inside). The afternoon is yours to roam. Opt in for a heritage bike ride past ornate havelis, and dive into the local street food scene.
Bye bye, Bikaner. You’ll have the morning for a breakfast run, then we’ll hit the road towards Jaisalmer with desert scenes incoming.Welcome to the Golden City, where the legendary Jaisalmer Fort glows in sandstone. It’s one of the world’s rare living forts, and you’ll feel that energy as you admire from the outside. Tonight we’ll grab a rooftop spot and watch the sunset turn the whole city even more golden.
Kick things off this morning with a guided walk through this real-life sandcastle. Then you’ll have time to roam the fort’s winding lanes with the crew before we switch gears and head straight into the Thar Desert. Time to check into our tents near the dunes of Khuri. Come sunset, it’s camel ride o’clock (!) followed by a bonfire night of Rajasthani folk music, dance and a family-style dinner under the stars. Wow.
Jaisalmer, you were unreal. We’ll grab one last camp breakfast by the dunes, then hit the road towards our next Rajasthani gem. Blue City, we’re coming for ya'Dive straight into Jodhpur with an orientation through its old city lanes and buzzing markets, plus a photo stop in front of the mighty Mehrangarh Fort (camera rolls will be filling fast). After some free time to explore your way, we’ll check into the hotel and take the evening to wander and grab dinner with the crew.
A free day in Jodhpur? Yes please. Maybe hop in a tuk-tuk for photo ops through those iconic blue lanes, chase down a fort viewpoint, or cafe-hop between market finds. From skyline views to street eats, the options are endless in this city.
After two nights in Jodhpur, we’ll hit the road for Pushkar, a city that plays by its own rules and proudly so.No meat. No alcohol. Just colourful markets, cool cafes and a whole lot of spirituality. We'll get to know one of India's oldest towns with an orientation around the holy lake and ghats (and even visit the iconic Brahma Temple and an evening Aarti as chants drift across the water). Wanna grab the crew and head to a cute rooftop cafe overlooking the lake?
Wakey wakey. We’ll rise before the sun and take on the 970 steps up to Savitri Temple, climbing 750 feet for panoramic views over Pushkar as the city wakes below. (That early alarm will be worth it, promise!). Next up: the oh-so-pretty, Pink City. We’ll get straight into it with a hands-on block printing session at the Anoothi Project, supporting a powerful local initiative. Later (once the new crew has joined) we’ll head out on an evening orientation walk through Jaipur’s buzzing bazaars and sandstone streets. With 3 nights here, there’ll be time to slow the pace, dive deeper, and make the most of a city packed with colour, culture, and plenty to do.
Morning, fort fans. Today, we’ll kick things off at the mighty Amber Fort, then roll on to Hawa Mahal for those must-have photo ops in front of its iconic pink facade. The evening is yours to explore your way, markets, rooftops. But if home-style Indian food is calling your name, you can opt for dinner with a local family and learn how it’s really done.
Yep, it’s a full free day in the pretty Pink City. Looking for things to do? How about a Bollywood film at the iconic Raj Mandir Cinema? Or a wander through Jantar Mantar’s mind-bending observatory? Maybe take a bike tour through the streets, or sip a cocktail with the crew at a heritage palace.
Jaipur, you’ve been a dream. But now we’re swapping pink palaces for raw wilderness as we head to Ranthambore. Oh yes, it's tiger time. Welcome to Ranthambore! This is where tigers, leopards and wild landscapes steal the spotlight. Head out on an optional (but highly recommended) safari into the jungle. P.S. Safaris here are in high demand, so you'll need to pre-book this Free Time Add-On.
After our dose of jungle and (hopefully) tiger sightings, we’ll trade wild landscapes for something equally iconic as we hit the road for another world wonder.Hello Agra… heard of it? You’ll have a free evening to explore, or level things up with an optional visit to Agra Fort for sunset views and serious Mughal-era drama.
Today’s the day, folks. We’ll be up early to catch the marble beauty that is Taj Mahal at sunrise. Take it in, snap the pics, have your “okay, wow” moment, then we’ll hit the road back to Delhi.And just like that our Indian adventure has officially come to an end. Hug it out, swap details, and say your goodbyes (or maybe just “see you on the next one.”)
