RAJASTHAN
 
 Rajputana, the modern-day state of Rajasthan, has been the scene of some of India's most famous
battles and infamous court intrigues, and is home to its finest forts and palaces. The magnificent Jai Mahal Palace,
the idyllic Lake Palace and the secluded Mandawa Castle are just some of the regal settings in which you will
be treated like a maharaja. The forts at Jodhpur and Chittor encapsulate the romance and chivalry of India's
powerful Rajput Kings, while at the ancient capital of Amber an ascent on elephant-back recreates the majesty
of a bygone era. Unique fresco styles and intricate miniature paintings adorn the Rajasthani palaces which
were once inhabited by the most flamboyant ruling dynasties. While relaxing in royal palaces
this tour rediscovers the majesty of this "Land of the Kings".
