Rajasthan, the ‘land of royals’, is an excellent take-off point for those who are interested in Indian exotica but don’t know where to begin their India cycling holiday. This vast region makes for the western snout of India and is part desert, part hills, part royalty, part rural idyll. A long history of rival kingdoms and wars has left its bountiful heritage here in the form of many royal palaces and strategically built forts that continue to awe and intrigue to this very day. The contrast between the royal and the rural, the opulent and the impoverished is particularly fascinating for a biker pedalling up and down the cycling trails of Rajasthan with an itinerary that lets you do it at a relaxed, leisurely pace.
Chosen accommodations are culture resort, eco resorts and family run hotels - all with excellent quality in service. Rooms are on a twin-sharing basis. A single supplement is available for guests who would like a private room.
