Tour Details

India Gate

The capital of the world’s largest democracy has always been presented as a ‘Kohinoor’ in the fabled wealth of monumental treasures of India. The legends portray Delhi as the kingdom of the erstwhile kings ‘Pandavas’ in the 400 BCE. The profound architecture of the ancient monuments in Delhi testifies the strong hold of the rulers of Hindu, Muslim and British empires. The monuments and ruins of many empires are scattered throughout the city, often cheek by jowl with modern towers and structures.

Taj Mahal

No wonder, this place does not need an introduction as the soul of the World Heritage, crowns the City ‘The Taj-Mahal’  strategically located on the banks of River Jamuna, the tributary of sacred Ganges was the seat of the imperial Mughal court and former capital of India during the Mughal Empire. Dotted with three grand World Heritage Sites; The Taj-Mahal, The Agra fort and the abandoned capital city of Fatehpur Sikri, a must see monument.  

Chambal River in Kota

The legendary river of India has been famous as the tributary of river Yamuna forms the part of the greater Gangetic drainage system flowing north-north east through the Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan forming the boundary between Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh and before joining to south-east to join Yamuna again. The confluence of this river at a tri-point of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh conceived the famous project of endangered gharial conservation as well as endangered red-crowned roof turtle and Ganges river dolphin. The place is a paradise for the wildlife lovers and bird watchers as well as offering cultural experience to the far travelers.

Ranthambhore

Ranthambhore derives its name from the 1000 years old fort of Ranthambhore, the second largest in India and among the six listed World Heritage sites standing at a height of 705 ft. Ranthambhore national park lies in the shadow of the Aravalli and Vindhya mountains range and covers a core area of 106 sq miles. The most famous resident is the endangered Royal Bengal tiger, which is spotted quite frequently in Ranthambhore. This was the originally the hunting lodge of the erstwhile Maharajas of the Jaipur state. 

Bhaisrorgarh Fort

It has won an award as the best Heritage Hotel by Tatler Travel Guide UK in 2008 and 2009.The history reveals the spell bounding words of Col. James Tod, the famous British writer to stay at Bhainsrorgarh as his dream destination in Rajasthan. We offer an array of activities to explore the vicinity of this beautiful and lovely paradise

Bijaipur Castle

If we portray Castle Bijaipur as  “A home away from home”,  it would not be mistaken to use this phrase. Converted in 1991 as Heritage Hotel, the castle is run by the family and is one of the best heritage Hotels in India. The place is surrounded by lovely forest of “Jacaranda” and   “Flame of Forest” trees in the Vindhyachal Hills. The castle dates back to 16th century continuing the customs, culture and traditions of the Rajput warriors of Mewar region. The hotel offers an array of activities like Yoga, Jeep safaris, Cycling, Horse rides, Bird watching and Trekking on off routes trails. 

Lake Palace Udaipur

The world fame Lake Palace built as summer palace offers you the most spectacular view around and is one of the most likely places of stay for the honeymooners. A walk in the old city gives you a chance to see the extent of restored buildings and colorful shops just making you stop in your tracks to take unlimited pictures. 

Akshar Dham Temple

Ahmedabad is the bustling industrial and commercial city of modern India with a fascinating old quarter, redolent with the colorful of the traditions, customs, people and region. A legend often reveals the foundation of the city by Sultan Ahmedshah who came on a hunt and encountered a warren of rabbits on the Sabarmati river bank. Astonishingly the rabbits turned and chased his hounds, defending the territory. As an auspicious sign, viewing this, the Sultan decided to build his new capital at this sit and named after himself as Ahmedabad. Witness the quaint buildings in the older parts of the city where the beautiful and fascinating Ahmed Shah’s mosque stand with its wrecked adorned towers. The serenity of the Gandhi’s Ashram globally attracts lot of visitors.

Gateway of India

Mumbai or formerly known as Bombay, India's most modern and internationally known city with inevitable inequality is well known in the western world as Bollywood. A city that began with amalgamation of seven islands as a part of the dowry of Portuguese Princess, Catherine of Braganza, when she married the English King Charles II in 1662. After the opening of the Suez Canal, the distance between Britain and India was reduced by 4,500 miles as ships no longer needed to travel round Southern Africa thus Mumbai on the west coast became as important as Calcutta on the eastern coast.  The city boasts some finest Gothic architecture buildings like Victoria Terminus, the first Railway station in India as a symbol of progress exported to India as one of the British landmarks during the British Raj in India. Another landmark of that time is the Gateway of India which commemorated the visit of George V and Queen Mary to India in 1911. A lot to say about this hustling-bustling city but your experience will enthrall you more than words.
