About this destination

A 12-day heritage journey through Jaipur, Aman Bagh, Fort Barwara & Ranthambore, India — hand-planned by Rachana, with where to stay, what to do and where to eat all mapped out.

My experience

This is Rachana's own 12-day itinerary for Jaipur, Aman Bagh, Fort Barwara & Ranthambore, India — the version she'd plan for a close friend. It threads together stays she rates like Options and The Rajmahal Palace RAAS Jaipur, a day-by-day plan, and the meals worth booking ahead. Everything here is personally travelled and curated — no filler.
