Come and experience the classic grandeur that is the jewel in India's crown. Rajasthan is a wonderful place to begin or end your exploration of India. It is a land of ancient palaces and fortress cities and rugged yet beautiful scenery. Many of our tours of Rajasthan coincide with colourful ethnic festivals, such as the Summer Festival, when Mount Abu is in full bloom and resonates with the folk and classical music of the native tribal culture; and the Elephant Festival, a March event, or the Camel Festival; in November; a renowned favorite.

See our tour highlights for more details.

For those who visit, will find it's people are vibrant, friendly and generous, always clad in bright coloured attire. The main religious festivals are Deepawali, Holi, Gangaur, Teej, Gogaji, Makar Sankranti and Janmashtami, as the main religion is Hinduism. Rajasthan's desert festival is celebrated with great zest and zeal. This festival is held once a year during winters. Dressed in brilliantly hued costumes, the people of the desert dance and sing haunting ballads of valor, romance and tragedy. There are fairs with snake charmers, puppeteers, acrobats and folk performers. Camels, of course, play a stellar role in this festival.
