Tour Overview

Jaipur is the capital and the biggest city of the Indian territory of Rajasthan. Known globally as the Pink City due to the iconic color scheme of its historic structures, it forms a crucial part of India's famous Golden Triangle. Founded in 1727 by the Rajput ruler Jai Singh, it is a living museum of Indian history, civic planning, and royal architecture.

Complementing the historical deep-dive is Ranthambhore, a premier national park in northern India. Originally established as the Sawai Madhopur Game Sanctuary in 1955, it became one of the pioneering Project Tiger reserves in 1973. It serves as an incredible open-air laboratory for students to study biodiversity, ecology, and wildlife conservation firsthand.

The Heritage of Jaipur: The Pink City

Students dive deep into the royal history and architectural brilliance of Rajasthan. Through guided explorations of the magnificent Amer Fort and the sprawling City Palace, textbook history is brought vividly to life. We examine the intricate lattice work at the Hawa Mahal (Palace of Winds) and discuss the engineering marvel of the Jal Mahal, which appears to float in the center of Man Sagar Lake.
