Rajasthan Vacation Packages
In the local language, Rajasthan translates to “the land of kings” because historically, the place belonged to brave kings and warriors of India who would often conquer major parts of India. Well, what remains of their centuries of conquest and war is a land filled with architectural masterpieces, the rich culture of the people, and the magnificence of India from an earlier period.
Naturally, Rajasthan draws thousands of visitors from all over the world every year. Flamingo Travels, one of the leading Indian tour operators in the USA brings you the opportunity to visit this iconic landmark. So, here’s everything that you need to know about visiting Rajasthan if you wish to visit this “land of kings”.
Best time to visit Rajasthan from the USA
Much like the rest of India, Rajasthan experiences the feel of three main seasons: The warmth of summer, the cold of winter, and the rains in the monsoon season. However, the best (and the tourist season) time to visit Rajasthan would be during the cold months of the winter season i.e., October to February.
The weather stays pleasant throughout the day as the sun stays gentle on the terrain. Since a majority of the state is a desert, the nights get quite cold. One can often spot campfires lit up against the night sky along with some hot and savory Indian food in one of our Rajasthan tours with Indian food.
With that being said, the different seasons of Rajasthan have different experiences to offer.
- Summer in Rajasthan: - It is generally not recommended to travel in summer since the Rajasthani sun can be really intense on the skin. The temperatures reach 118°F (48°C) during the day and some iconic sightseeing can get canceled as a measure of safety.
- Monsoon in Rajasthan: - July brings in some rains in Rajasthan which continue until September. With the temperatures dropping a little humidity can increase up to 77%. Although not every region receives rainfall, a soft drizzle might not hurt your journey too much.
Best places to visit during your Rajasthan trip
Although you stay for a lifetime amidst the sandy dunes, Rajasthan offers some exotic places and sights that would make every traveler’s visit unforgettable. From architectural marvels to the rich and ancient culture of the Indian people, some cities of the land of kings are beyond extraordinary.
- Jaipur: - Jaipur, helmed as the Pink City also happens to be the capital of Rajasthan. According to the history books, the buildings were painted Pink in 1876 as per the orders of Maharaja Ram Singh due to a visit from Queen Victoria.
- Udaipur: - Known as the City of Lakes, Udaipur (as the name suggests) contains numerous serene lakes, natural beauty, and temples, Udaipur is one of the must-visit destinations while visiting this iconic state.
- Jaisalmer - Known as the Golden City, Jaisalmer emits a yellowish-golden hue tinge that reflects in the bright Rajasthani sun. An evening in the Golden City in winter sounds nice, right?
However, this list is just a teaser before the big reveal of the beauty of Rajasthan's myriad culture. Having a couple of Indian foods in one of our Rajasthan tours with Indian food would be one of your best decisions.
Things to do on the Rajasthan trip
A hot air balloon over a desert horizon, camping in the cold weather on sand dunes, and experiencing a vintage car rally are some of the things that you can experience in some of our Rajasthan tour packages from the USA (with Indian food, of course). So, without further ado, here are some iconic things that you can do while on a Rajasthan trip:
- Witness the marvelous architecture of some of the ancient and famous buildings and monuments that Rajasthan has to offer.
- Go dune bashing against the bumpy sand dunes of this beautiful state for that adrenaline and thrill seeker in you.
- Watch the sunset over the desert of Rajasthan in a hot air balloon ride.
