Rajasthan Off the Beaten PathA Rajasthan route focused on the state's less-visited western cities — Bikaner's camel research centre and havelis, and Jaisalmer's desert fort — skipping the busier Jaipur/Udaipur circuit entirely.
For travellers who've done Jaipur and Udaipur before, or simply prefer quieter cities, this route stays in Rajasthan's far west, away from the most-visited stops.
Drive into Bikaner, a less-visited fort city known for its desert cuisine and camel-breeding tradition. Afternoon at Junagarh Fort, notably untouched by conflict and richly decorated inside.
A morning visit to the National Research Centre on Camel (with the chance to try camel-milk products) followed by a wander through Bikaner's old-city lanes, quieter and less touristed than Jaipur's or Udaipur's.
Drive from Bikaner to Jaisalmer (approx. 5.5–6 hours).
An overnight desert camp experience in the dunes outside the city: a camel or jeep safari at sunset, a folk-music evening around the fire, and a night under some of the clearest skies in Rajasthan before returning to the city.
A day back in Jaisalmer town exploring the living fort's inner lanes, along with the carved sandstone havelis of Patwon Ki Haveli, before free time in the bazaars.
Morning at leisure in Jaisalmer before a private transfer to the airport for your onward flight.
Well-located hotels in each city, twin-sharing with breakfast included; a 5-star or heritage-property upgrade is available on request.
Private air-conditioned vehicle and driver for the full itinerary, plus any internal flights specifically listed in the day-by-day plan; airport transfers included.
Daily breakfast included. Lunches and dinners are at your own choice so you can explore local restaurants, with recommendations from your guide — let us know if you'd prefer these pre-arranged instead.
