THE FORTS, PALACES, DESERTS AND WILDLIFE OF<br />

RAJASTHAN FOR TWO PEOPLE<br />

Delhi - Samode/Jaipur – Jodphur – Jaisalmer – Rohet – Bera - Udaipur – Bombay<br />

KINDLY DONATED BY MAHOUT, THE LODHI, SAMODE PALACE, RAAS, THE SERAI,<br />

MIHIR GARH, JAWAI LEOPARD CAMP AND BUJERA FORT<br />

A unique opportunity to experience India in<br />

style. Embark on this tour of Rajasthan in India<br />

and visit some of the state’s hidden gems.<br />

Begin your holiday in the lap of luxury in<br />

Delhi’s foremost hotel, The Lodhi. Take in the<br />

atmosphere of a true cosmopolitan city before<br />

travelling to Jaipur where you will stay for two<br />

nights at the Samode Palace. Lying in the Aravalli<br />

Hills, Samode Palace is an excellent example of<br />

Rajput-Mughal architecture. From here travel<br />

to Jodhpur and the bright lights of the city to<br />

stay in the gorgeous RAAS. Set in Jodhpur’s old<br />

walled city this boutique hotel offers a butler<br />

serviced pool, a choice of two fantastic<br />

restaurants and spectacular views of Meherangarh<br />

Fort. The rooms are decorated in an understated<br />

contemporary style, while traditional handcrafted<br />

Jodhpur red sandstone jhali (windows)<br />

provide a bright contrast.<br />

Continue into the heart of the Great Thar<br />

Desert, to Jaisalmer, where the Sujan Hotels have<br />

given a two night stay at The Serai, an<br />

‘outrageously luxurious’ camp situated in<br />

stunning desert surroundings. Enjoy a peaceful<br />

sundowner in the golden dunes under a star lit<br />

sky.<br />

A drive back East across the desert brings you<br />

to Mihir Garh, just south of Jodhpur, where<br />

you will stay for two nights. This luxury retreat<br />

is located in complete wilderness and is truly<br />

spectacular. It is famous for riding, desert picnics<br />

and camel safaris.<br />

From here, you will head south through<br />

stunning countryside to The Jawai Leopard<br />

Camp, situated north-west of Udaipur and a<br />

fabulous base from which to witness the local<br />

wildlife in its natural habitat. The Jawai<br />

Leopard Camp has ten luxurious tents all situated<br />

in beautiful landscapes surrounded by craggy<br />

granite formations of caves.<br />

Finally to Udaipur, also known as City of<br />

the Lakes and a city rich in culture, history<br />

and beautiful scenic locations. Bujera Fort is<br />

Udaipur’s only boutique hotel and is situated on<br />

the edge of the small rural village of Bujera just<br />

outside the city. With a backdrop of the Aravalli<br />

Hills, the views from the Fort are stunning and<br />

the hotel offers a very relaxed ‘English country<br />

house’ atmosphere. The perfect place to end your<br />
