After spending some time here, drive towards Jaipur and make your next stop to visit the beautiful Chand Baori in Abhaneri, a breathtaking 1,200-year-old stepwell with a mesmerizing labyrinth of symmetrical staircases descending into cool, shadowed depths - an ancient engineering masterpiece.

Day 5-6: Jaipur

During the day take a guided tour of this historic city. Begin your journey at the magnificent Amber Fort, perched on a hilltop like a golden crown. Ride up its ramparts and wander through its ornate halls, from the Sheesh Mahal, where mirrored walls sparkle like a starlit sky, to the grand courtyards that once echoed with royal processions.

Visit the City Palace stands as a living testament to royal grandeur, its palatial halls and museum treasures echoing an era of splendour.

Post lunch, visit the Jantar Mantar, a UNESCO-listed astronomical marvel, continues to mark time with its massive celestial instruments, while the intricate Hawa Mahal, with its honeycomb façade, whispers tales of royal intrigue.
