A sunrise visit to the TAJ MAHAL to capture the first light on it is a must do.

The City Palace in Jaipur is amongst the most magnificent residences in the world; the Royal family still resides in part of the palace.

A major part of the City Palace is open to visitors, and it houses some of the most elaborately decorated pavilions, meeting halls, art galleries, and textile & arms/weapons museums with a collection of exhibits dating back as far as the 15th century.

Jaipur is one of India’s finest luxury shopping destinations. Also known as “Gemstone City”, Jaipur is the biggest center of gold jewelry and precious gemstones like rubies, sapphires and emeralds.

We recommended the Johari Bazaar for jewelry, Chandpol Bazaar for ethnic art pieces and handicrafts, Tripolia Bazaar for its famed bangles, Bapu Bazaar for leatherware and Nehru Bazaar for traditional Rajasthani garments.

Take time out to visit the uber posh Gyan Museum, a signature concept store that houses 2,500 unique pieces of Rajasthani art spanning over 3000 years and the Gem Palace, described by Vogue magazine as the “world’s most exceptional High Jewelry ateliers.”

35 km from the city center in Agra lies the ancient city of Fatehpur Sikri which was founded by the Mughal Emperor Akbar the Great and later abandoned in favor of Agra and Delhi.

With such stunning marvels as the Buland Darwaza, Jodha Bai’s Palace and Panch Mahal, the city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

(The Baby Taj)

The Baby Taj in Agra is a wonderful fusion of Islamic architecture with traditional Indian architecture.

Built by Empress Nur Jehan for her parents – Mirza Gyas Beg and Asmat Begum, it is also considered to be the precursor building for the Taj Mahal.

Built in the early 17th century, Itmad-ud-daulah is a fine example of Mughal architecture and the first building built in White Marble; it is a must-visit for any architecture enthusiast.

As the most visited tourist attraction in India, the Taj Mahal is swarmed by tens of thousands of tourists any time of a given day.

That is why you will appreciate our bespoke arrangements for a private photoshoot at the Taj.

Overlooking the city of Jaipur from its perch in the Aravalli Hills, Nahargarh Fort is one of Rajasthan’s most iconic forts which formed a ring of defensive formations around the city along with the Jaigarh Fort and the Amer Fort.

We particularly recommend our partners the Samode Haveli and Jai Mahal Palace in Jaipur and Haveli Dharampura in Delhi.

One fun tourist activity in Rajasthan is the hot air balloon ride —available at Jaipur, Udaipur, Jodhpur and Jaisalmer —which gives you panoramic views from the sky of the beautiful landscape of these enchanting cities and the sand dunes of the Thar Desert surrounding them.

The kings of the Rajputana region were great patrons of music, dance, and performance arts. Their palaces hosted extravagant galas featuring local music and dance performances.

We recommend that you attend a classical music and dance performance at Jaipur’s historic city palace, the erstwhile seat of power and primary residence of the royalty of Jaipur and watch a traditional Rajasthani Puppet show called “Kathputli” performed by the Bhat community who have been associated with this art form for centuries.

Another entertaining immersion is to witness the snake-charming nomad community called Kalbelias put on a show with their Cobras and vipers.
