This Village Tour of Rajasthan is designed for travelers seeking an immersive, offbeat, and authentic experience of Rajasthan’s rural life, heritage, and traditional hospitality. Across 15 days, this journey takes you through vibrant cities and serene countryside villages that showcase Rajasthan beyond its famous forts and palaces.
Explore the ancient streets of Delhi and Agra, witness the royal aura of Jaipur, attend spiritual aartis in Pushkar, and move into rustic Rajasthan with stays and visits in villages like Osian, Luni, Deogarh, and Kumbhalgarh — where you’ll interact with locals, visit rural homes, enjoy camel or bullock cart rides, and witness local crafts, folk music, and farming lifestyles up close.
