Complete description
Discover the real Rajasthan on the FOUNDING 10 Royal Rajasthan journey, a small-group experience for travellers who want much more than the famous monuments. Begin in Delhi and Agra with Old Delhi’s lanes, the Taj Mahal, and the temples of Mathura and Vrindavan. Then move through Rajasthan’s different landscapes: the Pink City of Jaipur, the holy lake town of Pushkar, the palaces of Udaipur, the Blue City of Jodhpur, and the golden desert of Jaisalmer, before finishing in Bikaner and Mandawa’s painted havelis.
This isn’t a rigid sightseeing tour. Days balance sightseeing with rest, including a slow day in Pushkar, and every activity is optional. Along the way, group dinners, a photography session, and a night under the desert stars turn a group of strangers into friends. Designed and operated by Tour Advisor India, this is one of our most immersive FOUNDING 10 journeys.

Frequently Asked Questions.
Is the FOUNDING 10 Royal Rajasthan tour suitable if I'm travelling alone and don't know anyone?
Yes, this small group Rajasthan tour is designed for travellers who join alone. You travel with up to 10 people, with a private vehicle, a professional driver, local guides, and a tour team looking after logistics. Everyone is introduced online before the trip, so you already know your group before you land in India.
Which places does this Rajasthan group tour cover?
The journey covers Delhi, Agra, Jaipur, Pushkar, Udaipur, Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Bikaner, and Mandawa, with a night at a desert camp near Jaisalmer. Sightseeing is balanced with free time, so you’re not moving from morning until night every day.
What is included in this Rajasthan tour package?
The package includes hotel and desert camp stays on twin sharing with daily breakfast, private air-conditioned transport, all monument entry tickets, all activities, the desert camp dinner, and selected group meals. Other lunches and dinners, flights, and personal expenses are not included, but we can arrange them for you if you wish.
Do I need to travel with someone I know to join this tour?
No. Most travelers on this journey arrive without knowing anyone else in the group. Before the trip begins, we introduce everyone to each other online, so the group already has a sense of who they’ll be traveling with. Wherever possible, we also try to arrange the same flights for group members, so many travelers actually meet for the first time before even landing in India.
