Classical Treasures and Desert Dreams Tailor-made

This fascinating tour entices guests to discover the heart and soul of Rajasthan. From stunning desert wilderness to fabled cities and endless golden sands invite you to relax and unwind.

Discover the treasures of Rajasthan exploring the stunning city of Udaipur with its tantalising glimpses into the lives of the royal family. Explore the mighty 15 th C. Meherangarh Fort in Jodhpur and find a soothing calm at the quietly beautiful, Jaswant Thada memorial to Maharaja Jaswant Singh II.

For those looking for a true escape from the complexity of daily life this tour is a perfect way to join with nature in the timeless depths of the Great Thar Desert. Here your companion will be the whispering breezes drifting across the vast expanses. Relax in the pristine wilderness at The Clements Retreat in Dera Dune and absorb the healing power of the great desert. The stone huts, constructed like local dhanis are a perfect retreat from the desert sun with all modern facilities.

Walk in the desert, stargaze in the breathtakingly clear night skies, take a camel ride or, at nearby Khichan, between Sept and March, see the awesome spectacle of over 30000 Demoiselle Cranes. For the last 200 years the cranes have been migrating to the village from Mongolia.

Post Tour options include a break on the languid shores of Goa, relaxing on golden sands bounded by turquoise waters. Here peace and tranquillity abound.

Or for those visiting India for the first time can add on an unforgettable visit to the glorious Taj Mahal and Pink city of Jaipur. A perfect start to any holiday in India enveloped by the sheer beauty of the immortal mausoleum and echoes of a love tragically lost!
