Rajasthan Adventure

We leave the sacred town behind us and wind our way up the slopes of the Aravalli Range. We cross several villages and enjoy superb tracks and little roads, winding through numerous valleys with beautifully contrasting scenery. We then come back down to the lowlands and reach the ancient royal palace in Ghanerao.

Today is everything you dreamed of! We feast on tiny tracks and off-road trails. We cross several remote villages, some of which are home to the Rabari people, nomadic cattle farmers with their unmistakable attire. After a series of meandering tracks across vast fields, we reach another off-road playground: Lake Jawai.

We're now in West Rajasthan, called Marusthali (or “land of sand” in Marwari). We return to solid tracks, venturing onward along continuous twists and turns of well-maintained asphalt roads (although sand tracks do also make a regular appearance.)

We enter the heart of the Thar Desert on a series of small sandy roads, desert tracks of varying degrees of difficulty, and deep sand. We end the day at Desert National Park, where we savour the sunset and spend the night under the stars on the dunes around a campfire (tents, beds, mattresses, and blankets are provided).

We spend our last few miles on this beautiful stretch of the Thar Desert, then we head to the fortress city and architectural dream in the middle of the arid desert: Jaisalmer. You can enjoy a coffee, have some lunch, and wander around. Late in the day, we board the train that will take us back to the capital: guaranteed to be a truly unique experience.

We arrive in Delhi late morning. One or two hotel rooms are booked for you to freshen up before your international flight. You are transferred to the airport transfer as per your flight time, where our services end.
