Day 3: First Glimpse of the Taj Mahal
Travel to Agra and check into The Oberoi Amarvilas, where every window frames the Taj Mahal. That first glimpse is unforgettable, the marble dome shimmering faintly through the haze, delicate yet commanding. Forget a quick checklist, Agra is best experienced slowly. As evening falls, walk through the gardens as the Taj rises before you. Watching the monument glow warm gold at sunset is one of those rare, spine-tingling moments that stays with you forever.Day 4: Sunrise at the Taj Mahal & Agra Fort
Return for sunrise and witness the Taj Mahal in all its stillness, before many step inside. It's sunrise that truly steals your breath. As the first golden light spills across the monument, stand at its feet with your guide, uncovering its stories, secrets, and the undying love that brought it to life. Later, explore Agra Fort, wandering its grand courtyards, marble palaces, and hidden chambers, feeling the echoes of emperors who gazed toward the Taj. In the afternoon, continue to Jaipur, where your palace stay awaits.Where to stay

Day 5: Jaipur’s Icons
After an evening of rest at the magical Oberoi Rajvilas, rise early to step into the world of maharajas. Wander Amber Fort’s golden courtyards, intricately painted halls, and mirrored chambers glittering in the sunlight. Jaipur’s City Palace reveals regal artefacts, while the honeycombed façade of the Hawa Mahal captivates with its delicate beauty. Around you, life pulses, saffron-robed pilgrims, marigold-strewn street stalls, and camels weaving through bustling lanes. Every corner of Jaipur feels alive, making history not just observed, but deeply felt.Day 6: Artisans & Bazaars
This is your chance to peel back Jaipur’s layers. With your private guide, navigate buzzing markets alive with textiles, bangles, and fragrant teas. Visit artisans in tucked-away workshops: block printers dipping wooden stamps in indigo, jewellers showing you centuries-old techniques, and skilled craftsmen keeping traditions alive. Shopping here feels more like storytelling, you leave with treasures infused with meaning. Later, return to the calm of Rajvilas, where peacocks strut through the gardens as dusk falls.Where to stay

Today invites deeper discovery. Wander through narrow lanes where families paint their homes in shades of blue, a centuries-old tradition. Taste street food favorites, spiced kachoris, sweet lassis, guided by a local guide who know every hidden corner. Pause for conversation in artisan workshops, learning how cultural traditions are passed down through generations.

Rajasthan is known as the desert state. It is largely hot and dry throughout the year, making it a great destination to get away during cold winter months.
Summer in Rajasthan extends from April to June. It’s the hottest season so not ideal for travel, although early April is a good time to get great value for money if you don’t mind the heat. In western Rajasthan temperatures may soar, particularly in May and June, so we'd suggest avoiding Jaisalmer and the Thar Desert at this time.
The monsoon season usually runs from July to September. The temperature drops slightly, and humidity increases. During this period 90% of the rain Rajasthan occurs, although in reality Rajasthan never receives much rainfall. Lakes and rivers will be higher and there's more color to the landscape.
October to March is the best time to travel to Rajasthan. Expect warm and sunny weather, perfect for exploring and relaxing. Please note that hotels are at their busiest over the Christmas and New Year period. December and January can have very cool mornings and evening and we suggest taking some warm clothing. While temperatures in the desert areas are always hot in the daytime, they become some of the coolest areas of the state once the sun goes down. It’s also normal to expect some fog in the major cities of northern Rajasthan in December and January.
