What this journey looks like
A sixteen-day journey through Rajasthan's most beautiful cities and India's most sacred corners — from majestic forts and ornately painted havelis to desert dunes and the ghats of the Ganges. Sleep beneath a star-filled sky in the Thar Desert, ride a camel into the sunset and witness the deeply moving Ganga Aarti ceremony in Varanasi. An intimate journey for travellers who value authentic experiences, an unhurried pace and comfort throughout — with the full care of an English-speaking tour leader at your side.
