Horses, Forts and Villages

Inde - Rajasthan

Rajasthan provides you a real introduction to India. It makes you feel like you're in the world of the 1001 nights. Thanks to the convenience of private vehicle, first follow the roads, from the Taj Mahal to Ghanerao, via the mythical cities of Jaipur, Jodhpur and Udaipur. Far from the crowd and routine life of the city, go to ride horses during a 5 days safari and you will be fascinated by the amazing landscapes and people of the countryside.

Its Charming palaces, superb fortresses, elegant “havelis”, and proud Rajput lords show the charm and footprints of bygone era. It's also one of the most appropriated region to ride horses : The traditional “Marwari” horses are well trained, light, docile and easy to ride. The sandy tracks taken will allow us frequent good speed. With an itinerary that allow us to visit sites totally out of track, we'll be accommodated with Rajputs families (lords) who's welcome is legendary.

Stay sometimes in forts, transformed in hotels of charm. From the world of the hills to the irrigated fields, to the Thar desert, Rebari shepherds, dromedaries and gazelles domain, we travel 35 to 45 Km per day through a region with thousand years traditions, having a rare chance to mingle with the local people. The saddles that we use are English, and is suitable for the best horse riders.
