Why This Journey

Rajasthan, Fort by Fort

This 14-day circuit is built for travelers who want to see Rajasthan properly rather than in fragments — the frescoed havelis of Shekhawati, the walled desert cities of Bikaner and Jaisalmer, the blue lanes of Jodhpur, the lake palaces of Udaipur, and the hill fortresses of Chittorgarh and Bundi, before finishing among the pink sandstone of Jaipur and the white marble of the Taj Mahal. Along the way you sleep under the stars in a Thar Desert camp and cross temple towns that have drawn pilgrims for centuries, making this one of the most complete regional circuits we offer.

Day-by-Day Itinerary

1 Day

Paris / Delhi

Arrival in Delhi in the evening and transfer to the hotel.

2 Day

Delhi → Shekhawati (260 km – 5h30)

Morning visit of Delhi, the capital of India. Delhi is different from other major cities in the country. A city of commerce and government, it is divided between New Delhi, relatively affluent, and Old Delhi, noisy and bustling, where you ride a rickshaw through lively crowds to visit major Mughal monuments. A city full of contrasts, reflecting modern India.

Visit Old Delhi and Jama Masjid, one of the largest mosques in India.
Discover New Delhi: India Gate, triumphal arch, wide boulevards, Connaught Place, and Qutub Minar.
Lunch

Drive to the picturesque Shekhawati region, known for its havelis (mansions) decorated with frescoes by wealthy merchants of the 18th and 19th centuries.
Dinner

Why Shekhawati matters: Merchant families here made fortunes on caravan trade routes and competed to build the most lavishly frescoed havelis, turning the region into what is often called the "open-air art gallery of Rajasthan."
3 Day

Shekhawati / Bikaner (210 km – 4h)

Visit the havelis of Mandawa, then drive to Bikaner. Located in northern Rajasthan in the Thar Desert, Bikaner is a fortified city protected by a massive fortress.

Lunch

Visit Junagarh Fort, which houses a collection of weapons. Built in the 16th century by Raja Rai Singh under Emperor Akbar, the fort expanded over four centuries, creating a complex structure of palaces, temples, corridors, staircases, terraces, and courtyards.

Tuk-tuk ride through a lively bazaar in the old city and visit a Jain temple.
Dinner

Why Junagarh matters: Unlike most Rajasthani forts, Junagarh was built on flat desert ground rather than a defensible hilltop, relying instead on its walls and moat — and it was never conquered in battle.
4 Day

Bikaner / Jaisalmer (330 km – 5h)

Drive to Jaisalmer, located in the Thar Desert. Known for its golden fortress surrounded by 5 km of walls, it rises from a semi-arid landscape.

Stop en route to visit desert homes and meet locals.
Lunch

At sunset, visit royal cenotaphs (chhatris). These memorials date back to the 12th century and reflect Mughal influence.
Dinner

Why Jaisalmer matters: Jaisalmer Fort is one of the few "living forts" left in the world, with roughly a quarter of the old city's population still residing within its ancient walls today.
5 Day

Jaisalmer / Thar Desert (40 km – 1h)

Visit Gadisar Lake, Jaisalmer Fort, havelis, and a Jain temple.
Explore the new town in the afternoon.
Lunch

Camel ride in the Thar Desert dunes at sunset.
Overnight in desert camp.
Dinner

Why the Thar Desert matters: The Thar is one of the world's most densely populated deserts, where traditional camel culture, desert villages, and spectacular sand dunes have shaped life in western Rajasthan for centuries.
6 Day

Jaisalmer / Jodhpur (270 km – 5h)

Drive to Jodhpur, Rajasthan's second-largest city, known for its blue houses and imposing fortress.

Lunch

Visit Mehrangarh Fort, built in 1459 by Rao Jodha, rising 135 meters above the city. Explore its courtyards and historical collections.
Visit Jaswant Thada, a cenotaph built for Maharaja Jaswant Singh.
Evening walk through the old city bazaar.
Dinner

Why Jodhpur matters: The blue wash on many old-city houses is traditionally associated with Brahmin residents, who used copper sulphate believed to repel mosquitoes and keep interiors cool through the desert heat.
7 Day

Jodhpur / Ranakpur (155 km – 3h) / Udaipur (90 km – 2h30)

Drive to Udaipur with a stop at Ranakpur to visit Jain temples, including the Adinath Temple, famous for its intricate architecture and 1,444 pillars.

Stop at Sadri to explore the local market.
Lunch

Continue to Udaipur with stops, including a demonstration of traditional irrigation (if available).
Dinner

Why Ranakpur matters: Built around 1439 under the patronage of a Jain merchant, the Adinath Temple's 1,444 marble pillars are each carved with a unique design — no two are alike.
8 Day

Udaipur — City Palace & Lake Pichola

Udaipur is one of India's most beautiful cities, known for its palaces, lakes, and artisan culture.

Visit the City Palace, Gangaur Ghat, and Jagdish Temple.
Boat ride on Lake Pichola (subject to water level).
Lunch

Visit Sahelion Ki Bari gardens.
Dinner

Why Udaipur matters: Founded in 1559 after the sacking of the previous capital Chittorgarh, Udaipur was deliberately built around a network of artificial lakes to secure a water supply the old capital had lacked.
9 Day

Udaipur / Chittorgarh / Bundi (250 km – 5h)

Visit Chittorgarh Fort, one of India's largest fortresses, dating back to the 7th century.

Lunch

Continue to Bundi, known for its fort, blue houses, and historic water reservoirs.
Dinner

Why Chittorgarh matters: A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Chittorgarh witnessed some of Rajput history's most storied sieges, remembered today as enduring symbols of resistance and sacrifice.
10 Day

Bundi / Pushkar (200 km – 3h30)

Visit Bundi Fort, a 14th-century palace with Indian miniature paintings.
Drive to Pushkar, a sacred city known for its animal fair.

Lunch

Visit the sacred lake and Brahma Temple.
Dinner

Why Pushkar matters: Pushkar's Brahma Temple is one of only a handful anywhere dedicated to the Hindu creator god, making the town one of India's most distinctive pilgrimage destinations.
11 Day

Pushkar / Jaipur (150 km – 2h)

Arrival in Jaipur for lunch.

Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan, was founded in the 18th century. Known as the Pink City, it features grand palaces, an observatory, and vibrant crafts.

Visit City Palace and Jantar Mantar Observatory.
Rickshaw ride through the old city.

Optional evening Bollywood movie at Raj Mandir Cinema.

Photo stop at Jal Mahal (Water Palace).

Lunch

Free time in local markets.
Visit Birla Temple in the evening.
Dinner

Why Amber Fort matters: Amber Fort served as the seat of the Kachwaha Rajput rulers for over six centuries, and its Sheesh Mahal (Hall of Mirrors) was designed so that a single candle could illuminate the entire chamber through countless reflections.
13 Day

Jaipur / Fatehpur Sikri (200 km – 5h) / Agra (40 km – 1h)

Drive to Agra.

Visit Fatehpur Sikri, a UNESCO World Heritage Site built by Emperor Akbar in 1572 and later abandoned due to water shortage.
Lunch

Arrive in Agra, home to the world-famous Taj Mahal.
Dinner

Why Fatehpur Sikri matters: Akbar built this magnificent capital city to honour the Sufi saint Salim Chishti, who had predicted the birth of his son. Despite its grandeur, the city was abandoned within only a few years, most likely because of an inadequate water supply.
14 Day

Agra / Delhi / France (200 km – 4h)

Visit the Taj Mahal, built between 1631 and 1653 by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal.
