New Delhi Trip Overview
What To Expect
Retrace the fading history of 18th century Rajasthan with this tour of Jaipur! Cross the city borders of Delhi by private car and local train for a glimpse into the ancient past of Jaipur, the region’s capital city. Travel back in time with a stop at Amer Fort, a once powerful fortress that bears an architectural fusion of Rajput (Hindu) and Mughal (Islamic) influences which can be seen throughout the city. Head downtown for lunch at one of the city’s best restaurants for a sampling of authentic local food. After a filling meal, walk around the expertly planned layout of City Palace and marvel at the well-preserved remnants of the complex. Delight your eyes with vibrant tones of red and pink when you visit Hawa Mahal next, dubbed as the ‘Palace of Wind’. This aesthetically pleasing structure was built as a vantage point for royal ladies strictly practicing ‘pardah’ – a belief that disallowed them from being seen in public.
