Rajasthan Royal Hideaways & Rural Trails

Spend the day discovering Jaipur’s royal landmarks with your private guide. Begin at Amber Fort, dramatically set in the Aravalli Hills, then continue to the City Palace for its courtyards, galleries and regal collections. Pause at the intricately designed Hawa Mahal and visit Jantar Mantar, the remarkable historic astronomical observatory. Your route can be adapted around your interests, whether you prefer architecture, photography, textiles or local craft. Return to the hotel with the evening free for dining or further exploration.

Leave Jaipur behind and travel by private vehicle towards Shahpura, exchanging urban landmarks for open fields, village roads and the changing colours of the Rajasthan countryside. On arrival, settle into your heritage retreat and enjoy a slower afternoon. Depending on local conditions and your preferences, you may take a village walk, meet local artisans or simply relax within the historic property. The evening offers an atmospheric introduction to rural Rajasthan, often accompanied by traditional hospitality and a quieter pace than the cities.

Continue west through the rural landscapes of Rajasthan to Chhatrasagar, a peaceful retreat beside a reservoir surrounded by open countryside. After arrival and lunch or refreshment, take time to enjoy the natural setting from the property or join an experience arranged locally, such as a gentle walk or a drive through the surrounding area. The afternoon light is particularly appealing across the water and fields. This is a day for slowing down, observing village life and appreciating Rajasthan away from its busiest attractions.

Enjoy a full day at Chhatrasagar with no lengthy transfer scheduled. The setting is ideal for a relaxed morning overlooking the water, followed by optional nature viewing, birdwatching or a countryside excursion subject to local conditions. Your private team can help shape the day around your interests, from photography and landscapes to quiet reading and leisurely meals. As evening approaches, the reservoir and surrounding plains create a memorable backdrop, offering a contrasting experience to the forts and palaces visited earlier.

Travel onwards to Chanoud, a lesser-visited destination where rural surroundings and aristocratic heritage create a distinctly personal Rajasthan experience. After checking in, explore the local setting at an easy pace, with opportunities for a village visit, countryside walk or time at the heritage residence. The day is designed to remain flexible, allowing the character of Chanoud to unfold without a crowded sightseeing schedule. Enjoy the evening in an intimate atmosphere, with traditional hospitality and the quiet sounds of the surrounding countryside.

Depart Chanoud for Jodhpur, the historic capital of Marwar. After arriving and settling into your hotel, begin exploring the city’s distinctive blue-painted neighbourhoods and lively old-town streets. Depending on your arrival time, visit the bustling Clock Tower market or enjoy views towards Mehrangarh Fort from a rooftop setting. Your chauffeur and guide will keep the afternoon adaptable, ensuring that the journey from the countryside to Jodhpur remains comfortable rather than hurried. Spend the evening enjoying the city’s celebrated cuisine or your hotel’s atmosphere.

Complete the journey with a visit to Mehrangarh Fort, one of Rajasthan’s most impressive hilltop citadels, where monumental gates, palace rooms and elevated views reveal the power of the former Marwar state. If time permits, add Jaswant Thada or a final walk through the old city before your onward transfer. Your private vehicle will take you to the airport, railway station or another agreed departure point in Jodhpur, marking the end of your luxury Rajasthan heritage journey.
