Day 2: Jaipur - Sambar - Pushkar
After waking up leisurely, you can treat yourself to a wholesome breakfast. Today, we ride towards the old town of Pushkar. Though it is close to Jaipur, our journey will be through the flat white lands of Sambar which is a much wanted detour for every rider. Arrive at Pushkar early evening for a cultural welcome. Explore the local market, World’s only Brahma Temple and the Sarovar on foot
Day 3: Pushkar - Bikaner
Our day today starts with a long back road of Rajasthan, with lesser civilisation on the way. Our destination today is Bikaner - The food capital of Rajasthan, a town famous for the inception of Haldiram’s, Bikanerwala and many more. Check into a heritage property and take the evening for leisure. Explore the market, try out the legendary street food of Bikaner and rest up for a longer ride the next day
Day 4: Bikaner - Jaisalmer
Start early today, and ride all the way to the heart of Thar - Jaisalmer. Around the afternoon, we would check into our luxury Swiss camps in Jaisalmer, and enjoy a cultural night with some Traditional Rajasthani Food. Now, we definitely need to burn those extra calories so a ride through the Desert in the middle of the night is the way to go - an experience of a lifetime!
Day 5: Jaisalmer - Longewala - Jaisalmer
With Jaisalmer as the base, we ride out in the morning to Longewala - the famous Indo-Pak border. During the afternoon, we will explore the largest and only ‘living’ fort of Rajasthan, in the city of Jaisalmer followed by a ride to the presumably haunted village of Kuldhara. Take the evening and night at rest with some more dancing and shows by the local talent at your campsite
Day 6: Jaislamer - Jodhpur
A quick zip today takes us to the city of Kings - Jodhpur. Check into our boutique property, and we will ride to the Mehrangarh Fort in the evening. After that, we will explore the clock tower market which is known for its famous Gulab Jamuns and Mawa milk cake. Arrive back at the hotel for dinner and rest
Day 7: Jodhpur - Mt. Abu
An early ride today, which will take us to the Om Banna Temple, where a Royal Enfield is worshipped. If you have ever owned or ridden an RE, this temple is a must. Our journey continues to the only hill station of Rajasthan - Mount ABU. If time allows, we will take a short ride to Sunset Point and a leisurely walk at Nakki Lake. Take the further evening at leisure with a hearty dinner at the hotel
Day 8: Mt. Abu - Udaipur

Day 9: Udaipur sightseeing
This will be a rest day, after a lot of riding across Rajasthan. Take the day at leisure, at your own pace, you can explore the Bada Bazar of Udaipur, visit the other sightseeing locations/lakes of Udaipur, or chill out the day in the hotel’s pool
Day 10: Udaipur - Chittorgarh - Ranthambore
After a well-deserved rest, a long day of riding awaits us. Ride, not just to Chittorgarh, but through the largest fort of India perched on a hilltop - The Fort of Chittorgarh.
