Rajasthan is not just a destination — it is an emotion. A land of blazing desert sunsets, towering medieval forts, shimmering lake palaces, camel caravans crossing golden dunes, and cities painted in every vivid colour of the rainbow. India's largest state is home to the world's finest collection of royal heritage, and no journey through India is complete without experiencing its grandeur.
Go India Trip's 11-Day Rajasthan Tour takes you on the most comprehensive royal journey through seven of Rajasthan's most iconic cities — from the Pink City of Jaipur and the spiritual heart of Pushkar, to the Blue City of Jodhpur, the Golden City of Jaisalmer with its magnificent sand dunes, the camel country of Bikaner, and finally the romantic City of Lakes, Udaipur. This is the complete Rajasthan experience — every fort, every palace, every sunset, every story.
