How to Customize a Senior Tour in Rajasthan
Choose Fewer Bases
Instead of 6 cities in 10 days, pick 2–3 comfortable bases and explore nearby towns via day trips.
Focus on Wellness
Add Ayurveda massage sessions, spiritual discourses, or yoga mornings into your plan.
Minimize Transfers
Avoid daily hotel hopping. Stay 2–3 nights minimum in each location.
Include Family
If children or grandchildren are part of the trip, add experiences everyone enjoys—camel rides, cooking classes, or puppet theaters.
Indian food is rich and spicy—but can also be tailored. Many hotels and restaurants cater to dietary needs.
