One of the best-planned cities of the world in its time, Jaipur is the capital city of Rajasthan, popularly known as the Pink City, founded by Maharaja Sawai Singh II in 1727 AD. Following independence, Jaipur merged with the states of Mewar, Bikaner, Jodhpur and Jaisalmer, and became state capital of Rajasthan in 1956. Jaipur is known for its striking buildings and sights, including the magnificent Amber Fort, one of three ancient hilltop forts that dominate the hills above Jaipur, along with the imposing Palace of the Winds, and the fascinating observatory, which consists of fourteen large geometric structures designed for astronomical measurement.
This amazing adventure through historic India takes us to some of the glorious country's most exciting sights. On our fascinating journey we discover thriving cities, spectacular forts, and have a chance to see a tiger in the wild, culminating with a night in a 200-year-old palace.

Superb holiday, well-organised, excellent hotels and good tour manager. Completely trouble free and very enjoyable.
Well organised, best holiday ever. Shaju and Phil worked so hard to make everyone feel included and cared for, information was shared at the right time and in the right amounts. Definitely doing this again.

Ah, tea drinking. That Great British tradition. So passionate are we about tea that the American’s knew that we’d get very annoyed with them if they were to throw it in Boston Harbour way back when.
