What can you experience on a Jaipur tour?
Opulent palaces
Jaipur is renowned for its luxurious and historic palaces. The Hawa Mahal is perhaps the most famous of these, reminiscent of honeycomb thanks to the 953 intricately designed windows on its pink sandstone exterior. Then there's the City Palace in the heart of the old town, which is still home to modern royals. Wander through its courtyards and gardens, marvelling at the unique display combination of Rajput, Mughal and European architectural styles. With countless other palaces to explore, from the Rambagh to the Rajmahal, there are plenty of places you can experience Jaipur's aristocratic ambience on your tour.
Authentic shopping
The Pink City is a delight for those seeking traditional Indian crafts, being home to a wide collection of markets selling everything from silverware, clothing and statues. Peruse traditional jewellery in Johari Bazaar, browse rugs and textiles in Tripolia Bazaar, or shop locally made shoes and clothing in Nehru Bazaar.
