Begin your journey on a richly layered exploration of northern India, where landmark cities, wilderness encounters, and intimate heritage stays come together in a thoughtfully paced family-friendly itinerary. From the cultural depth of Delhi and the timeless beauty of the Taj Mahal to tiger safaris in Ranthambore and the regal splendour of Rajasthan’s great cities, the journey balances iconic highlights with moments of calm and connection, ending amid the lakes and palaces of Udaipur.
Start in Delhi, a capital shaped by centuries of empire and everyday life. With your private guide, move between Mughal monuments, colonial boulevards, and vibrant neighbourhoods, gaining insight into the city’s many contrasts. Your stay at The Imperial, Delhi’s original grand hotel, adds a sense of heritage and refinement to your introduction. Travel onward by rail to Agra, where the Taj Mahal reveals its shifting moods at both sunrise and sunset, offering two very different perspectives on this architectural masterpiece.
From Agra, continue into the forests of Ranthambore National Park, where game drives take you through ancient landscapes alive with birdsong and the possibility of tiger sightings. Oberoi Vanyavilas provides an exceptional base, combining attentive service with space to relax between safaris. Journey on to Jaipur, exploring the Pink City’s forts, palaces, and bazaars, including the commanding Amber Fort. Pause midway to Udaipur at Shahpura Bagh, an elegant family estate offering a slower pace, home-cooked cuisine, and a choice of gentle activities. The journey concludes in Udaipur, where the City Palace, the Lake Palace on Lake Pichola, and an evening boat ride at dusk create a fitting finale shaped by water, light, and history.
