Rajasthan – The land of warriors, gorgeous women, royal elegance and vibrant colours. Majestic forts rise form the sands, and ornate palaces throb with romantic charm, celebrated in song by throaty ballad-singers. Wild-coloured tie-dyes and handicrafts speak of rare beauty - the swarthy damsel with her unforgettable jingling saunter and haunting eyes. There is certain magic about traveling through Rajasthan which is unequalled by any other place in the world. It is land of superlatives…everything here is breathtakingly beautiful, impressive and fascinating. It is packed with history, art, wildlife and culture that goes back several centuries.

Rajasthan has something for almost every kind of traveller- for those looking for an active, action-packed holiday there are several places which allow one to enjoy the great outdoors: there is trekking, horse and camel safaris through desert sands or along Aravalis – the oldest mountain range in India. Take a royal tour and live like a “Maharaja” or spend a peaceful and quite holiday in one of the several offbeat destinations in historic towns. Wildlife lovers can spot tigers and other rare species in various wildlife sanctuaries and national parks of Rajasthan.
