Itinerary
Traveling in India means coming to terms with oneself: no other country confronts us with so many cultural, social, economic and spiritual differences. This is a road trip through Rajasthan, in the north of the country, the land of the Maharajas: forts carved into the rock, ancient temples, colorful cities, ancient legends and millennia-old traditions.
We start in New Delhi, the bustling and overcrowded capital, all traffic and honking horns. Then the calm of Udaipur and its Royal Palace, the oasis of Chhatra Sagar with a sunset view, and Jaipur, the Pink City. In Agra, the Taj Mahal awaits at sunrise: one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. From the streets and slums of New Delhi to the shadow of a colossal white marble monument: India is a land of stark contrasts between wealth and poverty, and it gets under your skin and never leaves.


Welcome to India!
1 night: New Delhi
Check-in: we're off from New Delhi
Flights to and from the destination are not included in the package, so you can decide where to depart from, at what time, and with whichever airline you prefer. This gives you maximum freedom of choice!
Check-in at the hotel in New Delhi and a welcome meeting: time to get to know each other!
The initial impact can be overwhelming, between humid heat and frantic traffic: an immediate taste of India.
We try Indian cuisine right away, for strong stomachs only: easy on the spices for now, maybe sticking to rice and curry, which will still be delicious!

Udaipur, the White City of Rajasthan
2 nights: Udaipur
Palaces, temples and gardens
Early wake-up call: we leave Delhi, which we'll see again at the end of the tour, and fly to Udaipur. We've got two days to explore the ancient White City of Rajasthan!
City Palace, also known as the Palace of the Maharana: a labyrinth of halls, courtyards and terraces with breathtaking lake views, where every corner tells a story.
Jagdish Temple, an imposing Hindu temple overflowing with intricate stone carvings: just look up.
A stroll through the Sahelion Ki Bari gardens, the famous “Garden of the Maidens”: fountains, pavilions and flowers, created for the 48 handmaidens who accompanied the Maharana’s wife as a wedding gift.
Time to enjoy our beautiful hotel too: that's the beauty of our Collection trips, a slower pace to discover (and savor) each place with much more calm.

Unwinding in Chhatra Sagar
1 night: Chhatra Sagar
An oasis of peace
After breakfast we leave Udaipur and hit the road to Chhatra Sagar: hotel check-in and a day of total relaxation. Who said travel always means rushing?
Free afternoon to soak up the surrounding nature, the hotel's activities or some pampering at the SPA: slow down and unplug.
At sunset, a sunset aperitif on the house: drink in hand, breathtaking views in front of you.
Still craving adventure? Try birdwatching, kayaking on the lake or a visit to the local village.
Overnight at the hotel, with that feeling of being in the right place at the right time.

Off to Jaipur!
1 night: Jaipur
Cooking class and Indian flavors
Breakfast and off we go to Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan and the famous Pink City. The real highlight arrives in the evening!
Cooking demonstration class: the secrets of Indian cuisine, among fragrant spices and recipes passed down for generations. Not just a demonstration, but an experience for all the senses.
Then we enjoy the dinner we've prepared, paired with beer, Indian wine and soft drinks on the house.
Overnight in Jaipur, with the scent of masala and curry still lingering in the air.

Discovering the Pink City
1 night: Jaipur
Let's explore Jaipur
We wake up nice and slow and, after breakfast, dive into the magic of Jaipur. Keep your camera ready: every corner here looks like a movie set!
Amber Fort, a fortress-palace overlooking the city: austere outside, with halls sparkling with mirrors, frescoes and precious stones inside.
On the way back, a photo stop at the Hawa Mahal, the “Palace of the Winds”: a pink facade like stone lace, built so the court ladies could watch street life without being seen.
Next up, the City Palace, still the royal family's residence and a real treasure chest, and the Jantar Mantar, the world’s largest astronomical observatory, built in stone and marble.
We end with a stroll through the old city, between whizzing tuk-tuks, colorful markets and the scent of spices: Jaipur is lively, noisy and fascinating.

From Jaipur to Agra
1 night: Agra
Fatehpur Sikri, then finally Agra
After breakfast we say goodbye to Jaipur and head to Agra, the city of the Taj Mahal. But first, a stop frozen in time!
Fatehpur Sikri, a ghost town preserved like a historical time capsule: red sandstone palaces, quiet courtyards and architecture blending Persian and Indian influences. A lack of water turned it into an abandoned city, with incredible charm.
In the afternoon we reach Agra, check into our hotel and enjoy some well-deserved downtime: tomorrow it's the Taj Mahal at sunrise!

The Taj Mahal and the Red Fort of Agra
1 night: New Delhi
A dream come true: the Taj Mahal at dawn
It’s still dark outside and we’re already waiting: before us stands the Taj Mahal, one of the seven wonders of the modern world and Agra’s true treasure. Is there a better way to start the day?
The sun rising on the horizon, a light mist over the white marble: a moment we'll never forget, in the magic of this surreal place of eternal beauty.
After the Taj, the imposing Red Fort in Agra, another must-see: intricate architecture, panoramic views, chambers filled with frescoes, gardens with golden pavilions and a few cheeky monkeys.
In the afternoon, about a four-hour drive to Delhi, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the scenery. Hotel check-in, then a well-deserved dinner to swap stories about the day.

Delhi, the beating heart of India
1 night: New Delhi
Markets, mosques and Gandhi's memorial
We leave the hotel and dive straight into the beating heart of Delhi: chaos, honking horns and smiles, here we go!
Chandni Chowk, one of India's oldest and busiest markets: rickshaws, tiny shops, spices and street food, like a live-action Bollywood movie. To get into the mood, a rickshaw ride through the narrow streets.
Jama Masjid, the Friday Mosque and the largest in India: imposing, elegant and evocative.
Raj Ghat, the memorial dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi: a simple but powerful place telling the story of the person who led India toward independence with strength and non-violence.
In the evening we take it slow: a farewell dinner as a group to savor the final flavors of India and relive the best moments of the trip. Maybe with some spices hidden among our clothes!
See you later, India!
Time to head home!
Our trip to India has come to an end, and it's time to say our goodbyes. It’ll be hard to leave this magical land, but we’ll see each other again very soon for new adventures!
