Overview & Highlights
This private family holiday balances culture and wildlife over five nights: one in Pushkar, two in Jaipur and two in Ranthambore. Children enjoy the forts and safaris, while grandparents can take the temples and bazaars at their own pace. You visit the Brahma Temple and ghats at Pushkar, Amber Fort and the City Palace in Jaipur, and take two safaris in Ranthambore National Park. Drives are 3 to 4 hours at most, with breakfast and rest stops built in. Meal preferences, including vegetarian and Jain, can be arranged with your hotels. Tiger sightings are never guaranteed.
