The Land of Kings

Rajasthan, authored around you

Few places on earth wear their history as gloriously as Rajasthan. This is a land of walled cities and hilltop forts, of lake palaces that seem to float on water and havelis whose every wall tells a story. For more than four years we have designed private Rajasthan journeys for travellers who want to feel it the way we do — not as a checklist of monuments, but as a living, breathing royal India.

Your journey begins the moment you land. A private, chauffeur-driven car meets you, and from there every day is yours: sunrise at Amber Fort before the crowds, a private boat gliding across Lake Pichola in Udaipur, the blue lanes of Jodhpur beneath the mighty Mehrangarh, and the golden ramparts of Jaisalmer glowing at dusk over the Thar. In between, you stay in heritage palaces and boutique havelis we know and trust, dine on royal Rajasthani cuisine, and travel with guides who bring the region's legends to life.

Because no two travellers are the same, no two Itinerary Diary journeys are either. Whether you dream of a romantic honeymoon among lake palaces, an unhurried family holiday, or a photographer's tour through desert and fort, your designer shapes every page by hand — pacing, hotels, experiences and all. There are no fixed departures and no crowds; only your Rajasthan, cared for from your first idea to your journey home.

Tell us a little about how you love to travel, and we'll send you a tailored itinerary and quote — with no obligation and no hidden charges.

Your India trip, handled end to end

Everything a first-time visitor from the US, UK, Europe or Australia wonders about — visas, money, safety, connectivity — quietly taken care of, so all you do is enjoy Rajasthan.

📧 Visa & entry

India offers a quick online e-Tourist Visa for the US, UK, Canada, EU, Australia, NZ, Singapore, UAE and more — 30-day, 1-year and 5-year options. We send you a simple step-by-step guide and check your details before you apply.

The rupee (INR) is a closed currency — withdraw on arrival or exchange at the airport. Cards are accepted in hotels and larger shops; ATMs are everywhere in the cities. All in-tour costs are pre-paid, so you travel cash-light.

Dress is relaxed, but cover shoulders and knees at temples and remove shoes before entering. Your guide quietly handles the customs — where to photograph, how to greet, and the little courtesies that open doors.

Rajasthan travel FAQs

October to March is the best time — pleasant days, cool evenings and clear skies, ideal for forts, palaces and the desert. Summer (April to June) is very hot; the monsoon (July to September) brings a green, quieter Rajasthan at gentler prices.

Six to eight days covers Jaipur, Udaipur and Jodhpur comfortably. Add Jaisalmer and the Thar and allow nine to eleven days. We tailor the length to your pace so nothing feels rushed.

Because every journey is private and customised, we quote per person after learning your plans. The cost depends on trip length, hotel category, season, number of travellers and the experiences you add — always with no hidden charges and a GST invoice. Share your dates for a tailored quote within one working day.

Every Itinerary Diary journey is fully private — your own chauffeur-driven car, private guides and a schedule built only around your party. You never share a coach or join a fixed group.

Yes. We specialise in handpicked heritage palaces, restored havelis and luxury properties across Udaipur, Jaipur, Jodhpur and Jaisalmer, matched to your taste and budget.

Very much so. Private transport, quality hotels, unhurried pacing and 24x7 support make it excellent for families, honeymooners and senior travellers alike.

Yes, and it is a rewarding destination for solo travel. With a private chauffeur and guide, vetted hotels and a 24x7 support line, you travel with a trusted team around you at all times, plus the usual sensible precautions.

Yes — a private camel or jeep safari in the Thar near Jaisalmer or Bikaner, with sunset dunes and an optional luxury desert camp, can be built into your journey.

Jaipur (the Pink City), Udaipur (the City of Lakes) and Jodhpur (the Blue City) give the fullest first impression. Jaisalmer adds the golden desert if time allows.

Yes. Every airport and railway transfer and each inter-city drive is by private, chauffeur-driven vehicle, included in your journey.

Rajasthani cuisine is rich and largely vegetarian-friendly — dal baati churma, gatte ki sabzi, ker sangri — alongside royal non-veg dishes like laal maas. Jain, vegan and other dietary needs are easily arranged on request.

Jaipur, Udaipur and Jodhpur all have airports with direct flights from Delhi, Mumbai and other Indian cities, and international travellers usually connect via Delhi. Rajasthan is also well linked by train and expressway; we handle every transfer for you.

Most visitors need an Indian visa, and many nationalities can apply online for an e-Tourist Visa before travelling. Rules change, so please check the official Indian government portal for your country; we are happy to guide you.

The currency is the Indian Rupee. Cards are widely accepted in hotels and larger shops, ATMs are common in cities, and it is handy to carry some cash for smaller purchases and tips.

Yes. 4G coverage and hotel Wi-Fi are good across the main cities. Coverage can thin out in remote desert areas, which is often part of the charm.

Light cottons for warm days, a layer for cool desert evenings, comfortable walking shoes, sunscreen, a hat and sunglasses. Modest cover is appreciated at temples. We send a tailored packing note with your itinerary.

At temples, shoulders and knees should be covered, and shoes are removed before entering. Forts and palaces have no strict code, but modest, comfortable clothing is best for the heat and the walking involved.

Jaipur for gemstones, blue pottery and block prints; Jodhpur for antiques, spices and bandhani; Udaipur for miniature paintings and silver; Jaisalmer for leather and mirror-work. Your guide can take you to trusted, fair-price artisans.

Highlights include the Pushkar Camel Fair (November), Jaipur Literature Festival (January), Jaisalmer Desert Festival (February), Holi and Gangaur (March) and Teej (August). We can plan your dates around them.

Yes — luxury tourist trains such as the Palace on Wheels can be included as a signature experience, subject to seasonal availability. We advise on the best option for your dates.

Very much — elephant and jeep rides at Amber Fort, puppet shows, camel rides, big open forts to explore and family-friendly palace hotels make it a favourite with children.

We tailor pacing and choose accessible hotels and vehicles wherever possible. Some historic forts have steps and uneven ground, so we plan alternatives and comfortable viewing points — tell us your needs and we build around them.

November to February is coolest and most comfortable; March and October are warm and pleasant; April to June is hot; July to September sees some rain and lush greenery. We time your days to the season.

It can be lovely — the landscape turns green, lakes fill, crowds thin and rates soften. Rain is usually brief. It suits travellers who prefer a quieter, more atmospheric Rajasthan.

Tipping is appreciated but never obligatory. A small amount for drivers, guides and hotel staff is customary; we are happy to advise on typical ranges so you feel comfortable.

Most sites welcome photography, though some interiors, museums or temples restrict it or charge a small camera fee. Your guide will let you know where to be discreet, especially around worshippers.

Stick to sealed bottled or filtered water, which is provided throughout. We choose reputable restaurants and hotels, so you can enjoy Rajasthan’s food with confidence.

For peak season (October to March) and festival dates, two to three months ahead secures the best palace hotels. We can also arrange shorter-notice trips — just ask.

Completely. Cities, pace, hotels, experiences and dining are all shaped around you. There are no fixed departures — your Rajasthan is authored from scratch.

Yes, where they save you time — for example between Jaisalmer or Udaipur and other cities. We handle the booking and all connecting transfers.

On a group tour you follow a fixed route on a shared coach. With us, everything is private and flexible — your own car and guide, your own timings, hotels chosen for you, and a designer who adjusts the plan as you go.

A private sunset boat ride on Lake Pichola, dinner on a palace rooftop, a couples’ spa, and a stay overlooking the water. Udaipur is made for slow, romantic evenings.

Yes — a focused Jaipur and Udaipur, or the Golden Triangle, works beautifully in four to five days. We keep the pace comfortable so a short trip still feels unhurried.

Yes — from iconic lake and palace hotels to private butlers, chartered transport, exclusive dining and bespoke experiences, we design at the very top end for travellers who want the finest.

A named travel designer plans your journey, a dedicated tour manager and 24x7 support line are with you throughout, and every booking comes with a GST invoice — so help is only ever a message away.

October to March is the peak and best time — warm days, cool nights and perfect light. Summers are hot but great value (Mount Abu stays cool), and the monsoon turns the desert green and dramatic.

Six to eight days cover the classic Jaipur–Jodhpur–Udaipur circuit; eight to ten add Jaisalmer and the desert. We shape the length to your pace.

Every trip is private and tailor-made, so we quote per person after learning your plan — heritage or luxury palace stays raise it, and the season matters. Always a GST invoice, no hidden charges.

Yes — that’s Rajasthan’s signature. We book genuine heritage palace and fort hotels once home to maharajas, at Deluxe, Premium and Luxury tiers.

Wonderfully — a lake palace in Udaipur, a desert camp under the Jaisalmer stars and candlelit palace dinners make it deeply romantic.

Yes — forts, elephants, puppet shows and safaris delight children, while a private car and comfortable heritage stays keep it easy for seniors.

Ranthambore is the star reserve; Sariska near Alwar is another, and Bharatpur is superb for birds in winter. We pre-book your safaris.

By air to Jaipur, Udaipur or Jodhpur, or by train/road from Delhi. We handle every transfer and internal drive in a private car.

Many travellers pair Rajasthan with Delhi and Agra (the Taj Mahal) as the Golden Triangle — a perfect first India trip. We design the combined route.

Absolutely — a camel ride to the Sam dunes at sunset and a night in a luxury tented camp with folk music is a Rajasthan highlight.

Rich and flavourful — dal-baati-churma, laal maas, gatte ki sabzi and ghevar. It is very vegetarian-friendly, and we arrange menus to suit you.

Blue pottery and gems in Jaipur, textiles and mojari in Jodhpur, miniature and Pichwai paintings, and Jaisalmer’s leather and mirror-work.

Yes — it is a well-travelled, welcoming region. With a private car and our on-ground team, it is comfortable for families, couples and solo travellers alike.

Completely — cities, pace, palace stays and experiences are all shaped around you, with no fixed departures.
