This Easy Going Starter Pack will get your trip off to a relaxed start. You’ll be collected from the airport in Delhi and transferred by private car to either comfortable hotel near the airport OR a central hotel near the spice markets and charming chaos of Old Delhi. You’ll spend one night here to shake off your jetlag and recharge your batteries, before travelling onto Jaipur the next day. The Pink City is a fantastic place to kick off a trip in India and during your two nights here you can relax, acclimatise, and explore. There is so much to see in this elegant and astonishing city, that you could spend weeks here without getting bored. At the end of the Starter Pack, you’ll be completely refreshed and eager to discover more of fascinating Rajasthan.

When you arrive in Delhi, you’ll be collected by your private driver and taken to your hotel. You can choose from either a hotel situated about half an hour’s drive from the airport or a charming hotel in Central Delhi, and ideal base to explore both the spice markets of Chandi Chowk and the modern bars of Connaught Place. Here, you can catch your breath and rest after your flight. In both hotels, you’ll have a comfortable room with a private en-suite bathroom.

Today, you'll be transferred to Jaipur (approximately 5 hours), and you can watch exotic India speed past your window on the way. In Jaipur, you’ll stay in a cosy family hotel for a firsthand experience of typical Indian hospitality. The rooms here are tastefully furnished in traditional Indian-style and several have four-poster beds. Breakfast is served in the romantic English tea garden. The family will go out of their way to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. You’ll spend two nights in this tranquil location.

On Day 3, you’ll take a guided tour of this remarkable city, visiting the City Palace, the Observatory and the fairy-tale Palace of the Winds (Hawa Mahal). In the afternoon, you’ll visit the imposing Amber Fort that lies just outside the city limits. From the battlements of the Amber Fort, you’ll have a wonderful view of the rocky hills and the smaller walls and forts constructed by the Rajputs and the Mughals in the area. The centre of Jaipur is a lively jumble of colours, camel carts, elephants, beggars, rickshaws, temples, forts and palaces.

The City Palace and the Palace of the Winds both stand in the ancient quarter of the city. The City Palace has several beautiful museums with fascinating collections. If you see the flag flying, it means that the Maharaja is in residence. The Palace of the Winds is a world-famous, pyramid-shaped building with dozens of windows. This is where the women of the royal harem could watch the processions in the street below, unseen by the masses.
