Taj Mahal Tour - 8 Days

Exotic Rajasthan, the ' Land of Princes ' is blessed with awe-inspiring monuments to a fierce warrior past. The magnificent forts of Jodhpur and Jaipur bear testament to the battles that once raged across this desert land, whilst the romantic palaces in Udaipur, Fatephur Skirl and the world famous Taj Mahal offer a glimpse of a softer side to North India's rich history. Cycling through the villages and towns we witness the timelessness of rural India, seemingly unchanged for centuries. From Jodhpur our journey takes us first to the beautiful lakeside city of Udaipur, 'The Pearl of Rajasthan' and on to the holy town of Pushkar , set amidst desert scenery. Leaving the desert behind we ride to Jaipur, site of the Palace of the Winds and impressive City Palace, whose pink sandstone walls are overlooked by the splendid hilltop Amber Palace . A visit to Northern India would not be complete without a chance to see Kipling's elusive tiger and Ranthambore, former hunting reserve of the Maharajas, is one of the best national parks to do this. We finish our journey at the serenely beautiful Taj Mahal, whose white marble exterior changing colour with the moving sun never fails to impress
