Rajasthan Handbook

Description

Rajasthan is a land of unending variety, in parts painfully touristy, in others completely untouched. Its people range from suave, polo-playing Rajputs and their elegant, jewellery-draped wives, to tall, incandescently turbaned camel drivers, a gold hoop in each ear almost bridged by a luxuriant moustache, the hard-working women often hidden behind a swathe of brilliantly bright fabrics, an inverse camouflage against the surrounding sand .The Rajasthan Handbook offers an almost daunting range of possibilities for travellers.

You could travel for weeks without seeing it all. Here we suggest some possible tours ranging from one-week to one-month trips. Travel networks of road, rail and air are so interconnected that you can combine parts of the routes in a range of different ways.

Travel agencies, listed through the book, can make the necessary arrangements for a relatively small fee, saving you time and bother, but remember that air and rail tickets can be difficult to get at short notice for some trips, especially during the winter peak season. Allow a little more time if you are planning to travel entirely by road and rail. However, if you use overnight trains for longer journeys you can cover almost as much ground in the same time as you would by flying.
