Transfer to India by private jet, where we have arranged a special touchdown in Agra, where you may explore the iconic Taj Mahal with your private car, driver and guide, before flying on to Jaipur. Spend your three nights in India at Amanbagh in Alwar if you wish. Alternatively, you will have the option (pending availability) to stay in Ranthambore at Aman-i-Khás.
Option one: Stay at Amanbagh, a palatial and tranquil base from which to explore Rajasthan’s rich heritage. Suggested experiences include a jeep ride through the archaeologically-rich ancient ruined city of Bhangarh, and the Cowdust Tour — hop in an open Jeep to explore fascinating rural villages surrounding Amanbagh. History enthusiasts may also be interested in seeing the Neelkanth Temples, and remote Ajabgarh Fort. Back at Amanbagh, you are invited to a fire meditation ceremony. This meditation is based on the concept that fire is the purest of the five elements. Participants sit around a fire called a hawan, composed of natural herbs and fragrant wood from the Himalayas. The session includes chanting the Gayatri mantra, a powerful Hindu mantra intended to energize the body’s 24 chakras or centers of spiritual power.
Option two: Stay at the Aman-i-Khás, a tented wilderness camp, situated in Ranthambore National Park, one of the world's best places to observe wild tigers. Spend your days on expert-guided game drives here. The park is home to approximately 75 tigers, hundreds of crocodiles, and over 350 species of birds — it's a paradise for ornithologists. The park also hosts leopards, sloth bears, hyenas, and much more. You'll travel in a shared open-top vehicle, offering the best opportunities to the wildlife. Other highlights include a horse safari astride a rare Marwari steed, and explore Rajasthan's romantic ruined forts.
