MotoDiscovery considers India to be an essential destination for those who are building a list of global motorcycling conquests. If you have shoved aside the sub continent in lieu of more acknowledged and established motorcycling destinations, we think you should take a second look at India. We have. For the curious Westerner there is not a more distant, exotic and worthy land to explore and confirm the beautiful diversity of our planet?
Rajasthan is a region of India referred to as the "Land of Kings" situated south-east of Delhi, on the edge of the Thar Desert and the home of proud Rajput warriors and seat of the mighty Mogul Empire. India at its exotic best! This deluxe desert-palace tour takes us through back roads to seldom seen castles converted to luxury hotels, hosted often by descendents of those who once claimed princely rein over the kingdoms of Rajasthan. To maintain a rhythm with the environment, riding the venerable Enfield Bullet will not deter, but will add to the experience.
Highlights
- Your accommodations. Rarely does a tour offer such exciting lodging. When and where possible, MotoDiscovery has selected numerous palaces converted to decadent hotels. Luxury...Raja style!
- Numerous havelies, or desert castles and fortresses, intricately carved sand stone buildings will be explored and in some cases will serve as your overnight stays.
- The ride. Through villages of the Rajasthani outback, riders will encounter the natives of this land.
