Maharaja's Bygone Era 11Nights/12Days
   

Delhi- Shekhawati-Bikaner-Khimsar- Jodhpur- Rohet- Udaipur- Deogarh- Shahpura-Jaipur-Samode- Agra.

Are we still in the world on Princes and Maharajas..? The answer is no no..! Right after the independence of India, the exuberance of all the princes and Maharahas diminished. India became a democratic country, so the Kings and Monarchs had no or very less power. Later in 60's and 70's many forts and palaces were converted into heritage hotels to cater to the growing demand of tourism industry. Today you can still experience the living style of those princes while staying in their forts and palaces.
