India - Royal Rajasthan to Leopard Country
Thirteen days trace a journey through Rajasthan and northern India, combining historic cities, colourful markets, wildlife and time beside the lakes of Udaipur.

Jaipur and Jodhpur bring grand forts, royal heritage and colourful bazaars, with opportunities to discover local crafts and traditions along the way. In Jawai, the focus shifts to the wilderness, with leopard sightings and time with local communities before evenings beneath the stars. Finish in Udaipur, exploring its palaces and markets before a private cooking experience and boat ride on Lake Pichola.
