We'll slow down the pace of your Rajasthan trip by arranging an overnight stop in Bundi. This is one of the best-preserved towns in Rajasthan. Walk through the narrow streets filled with Brahim-blue houses and enjoy the captivating scenery. Whilst here, make sure you check out some of the 60-odd baoris (stepwells) dotted around.

Day 1 – Arrival in Bundi

Today you’ll head to Bundi – one of the best-preserved towns in Rajasthan. The buildings are painted in Brahim-blue and there are more than 50 baoris (stepwells) to explore. These ancient baoris were designed to store water for drinking, washing and religious bathing. Be sure to visit Rani Ki Bauri, the Queen’s Stepwell. Built in 1499 to commemorate the queen’s deceased husband, this is one of the most beautiful baoris, with its marble carvings of Hindu deities. You’ll be staying in a small haveli in the old town, with the Garh Palace and the Taragarh Fort as your backdrop. Head up to the rooftop terrace for a 360-degree view and watch the sunset with a drink in hand. It’s the perfect spot!

Day 2 – Departure from Bundi

After breakfast you’ll have time to take a quick walk around the town before setting off to your next destination. Bundi isn’t as busy as some of its neighbours making it an easy going place to take a stroll. There are temples, markets, and stepwells at every turn
