What's this trip about?

    Rajasthan is still the dream India of your imagination-where you feel transported back in time to a romantic, turbulent era of turbaned warrior-princes, martial valor, and cloistered harems. Before India's independence, it consisted of 18 princely states and some of the oldest monarchies in India (and perhaps the world). The turbaned rajas and maharajas of this land had a long tradition of martial valor, and Rajasthan is still dotted with palaces and fortresses that are reminders of that romantic, turbulent era.
