GLOSSARY

• BB = Bed and Breakfast

• FB= Bed, Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner and Game Safaris

Please Note: The new safari regulation being implemented by the park authorities has made it mandatory for all

registered safari vehicles of the park, whether privately owned or belonging to the lodges, be allocated to visitors

on a rostered basis. Thus, vehicles from our lodge cannot be any longer guaranteed for safaris but a vehicle from

the day’s roster from the common pool for vehicles will be used for the activity. This change is being challenged

in the courts but as of yet there is no conclusion on the lawsuit yet.

ENTRY/VISA REQUIREMENTS

Day 1- Arrive New Delhi

Upon arrival at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport (Flights to

be booked and issued at your end - details to be advised). You will

proceed towards immigration and later proceed towards the baggage

belt and after collecting your bags you may please proceed towards

arrival hall wherein you will be welcomed by your &Beyond India host

and chauffeured to The Oberoi New Delhi.

New Delhi, the capital of India is a modern buzzing metropolitan city

with remnants of the past strewn amongst the modern buildings. Much

of New Delhi was planned by Sir Edwin Lutyen’s, who laid out a

grandiose central administrative area as a testament to British imperial

pretensions.

Delhi was established between 900 B.C and 1930. Delhi's famous "seven

cities" range from the 12th century Quila Rai Pithora, built by Prithviraj

Chauhan, to the imperial Shahjahanabad, constructed by the Mughals

in the 17th century.

Of the many attractions in Delhi, the major sites are the Rashtrapati

Bhawan designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens as the British Viceroys Palace,

Shahjahanabad (Old Delhi) where the Red Fort is, or Jama Masjid in the

famed Chandni Chowk in the heart of Old Delhi.

The Oberoi: Located in New Delhi, India’s capital city, The Oberoi New

Delhi reflects the city’s spirit in a harmonious blend of tradition and

contemporary sophistication. Located close to the city centre near

business, commercial and shopping districts, the luxury hotel overlooks

Delhi’s prestigious Golf Club on one side and the heritage site of

Humayun’s Tomb on the other. Exquisite interiors, impeccable service

and fine cuisine combine to make this the Capital’s most graceful and

elegant hotel. The award-winning hotel is ideal for business travel or

holidays to explore the cultural wonders of Delhi.

Day 2 - New Delhi – Agra

This morning, you will be driven to Agra. (Approx. 3 ½ hrs’ drive)

Arrive Agra and check-in to the hotel The Oberoi Amarvilas.

Agra: The city of Agra flourished under the patronage of the emperors

Akbar, Jahangir and Shah Jahan and attracted artisans from Persia and

central Asia. Agra is where Emperor Shah Jahan celebrated his immortal

love for his Empress in marble, the Taj Mahal. Agra is still famous for

handicrafts products such as inlay work on marble, carpets, jewellery,

zari and embroidery work.

The Oberoi Amarvilas: Considered as one of India’s best hotels, The

Oberoi Amarvilas stands unmatched in its grandeur and style. Being only

600 metres away from the Taj Mahal, every single room in this property

looks toward the monument.

Once you have settled in, you will embark on a guided tour of the

Itmaud-ud-daula and the Taj Mahal; to view it by Sunset.

Itmaud-ud-daula: The Tomb represents a transition in monumental

Mughal architecture between the construction from red sandstone with

marble decorations, to those of white marble decorated with pietra

dura inlay. The walls of the Tomb are of white and coloured marble

encrusted with semi-precious stone decorations. These take the form

of cypress trees, wine bottles, fruit or vases containing bouquets. Light

enters the building through screens intricately carved from white

marble.

Taj Mahal: Said to be one of the most elegant and a harmonious building

in the world, Taj Mahal is the manifestation of the wealth and luxury

of Mughal art as seen in its architecture, garden design, painting, and

calligraphy.

[Taj Mahal is closed on Friday]

Spend Two Nights at The Oberoi Amarvilas. Accommodation will be in

a Premier Room. Your stay will be on Bed & Breakfast Basis.

extensively with marble and pietra dura inlay. Notable buildings in the

fort include the Pearl Mosque, the Diwan-e-Am and Diwan-e-Khas (halls

Ranthambhore: Tucked between the rugged Aravalli and Vindhya hills,

the Ranthambhore National Park boasts a spectacular landscape filled

with boulder-strewn highland plateaus, lakes and rivers - dotted with

old forts and abandoned mosques - creating a wonderful atmosphere

for both bird and mammal viewing. Ranthambhore is perhaps most

famous for being one of the original 'Project Tiger' reserves and it still

affords one of the best opportunities anywhere in India of seeing a

tiger. At the centre of the park lay the ruins of the 10th to 16th century

Ranthambhore Fort which dominates the leafy forests from its perch

atop a dramatic rocky outcrop.



The Oberoi Vanyavilas: One of the best five-star hotel in Ranthambhore,

examples of dry deciduous forest intersposed with grassland. It is where

geographical zones merge and it is possible to see the tigers from the

overhead area. The entire forest has scattered battlements & spill overs

of the Ranthambore Fort, where tigers are said to frequent the ruins

Day 7 – Ranthambhore - Jaipur

After breakfast drive to Jaipur (Approx. 3 ½ hrs drive)

Arrive Jaipur and check-in to the hotel The Oberoi Rajvilas.

Jaipur: Founded in 1728 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh, Jaipur is where

modernity and tradition exist side by side. The walled city, vibrant with

colours includes the City Palace, an astronomical observatory and a

bustling bazaar where artisans fashion puppets, silver jewellery, lac

bangles and other handicrafts in their workshops. At a short distance is

the Amer Fort Palace at Amer.

Day 8 – Jaipur

Breakfast is at the hotel.

Later, you will embark on a guided tour of Hawa Mahal [Photo Stop],

City Palace & Jantar Mantar.

Hawa Mahal [Photo stop only]: Perhaps Jaipur’s most famous building; the

Hawa Mahal is the pink sandstone façade of a palace built for the ladies of

the harem by Sawai Pratap Singh. The façade contains 953 small casements

under a huge curve, each with a balcony and crowning arch. The windows

enable cool air (Hawa) to circulate and the zenana to watch processions

below without being seen.

City Palace: A wonderful combination of Mughal and Rajput forms of

architecture, it is now partly a museum housing miniature paintings,

manuscripts, Mughal and Jaipur carpets, musical instruments, royal

costumes and weapons, giving invaluable insight into Jaipur's royal

past.



Observatory Tower or the Jantar Mantar was built between 1728 and

1734 and it houses precise instruments for measuring “the harmony of

heavens”. Each instrument serves a particular function and gives an

accurate reading.

After your interpretive adventure, you will have the opportunity of

embarking on a walking tour of the market in the old city. Visit the

Maniharon ka rasta (bangle makers lane), then walk to the Thada

market (wholesale area), followed by a tour of the wedding market.

Afterwards, cross through the flower market and pass by a few temples

on the way, along with many small stalls.

Day 9 – Jaipur

Breakfast is at the hotel.

You will embark on a guided tour of amer fort and anokhi museum.

Amer Fort: It was once the ancient citadel of the ruling Kachhawa clan,

before the capital was shifted to present day Jaipur. Amer Fort is known

for its unique artistic style, blending both Hindu and Muslim (Mughal)

elements, and its ornate and breath-taking artistic mastery.

Anokhi Museum: The museum is located in a wonderfully restored haveli

within walking distance of the Amer Fort, and exhibits an active

acquisition program with a varietal of block printed textiles, alongside

animated images, time honoured photographs, antiquated wood and

brass tools, and related craft-like objects that provide a window into

the lives of an ancient people. The art of block textile printing can be

traced back centuries, easily considered to be the slowest and oldest

form of textile printing, and was practiced across the East by imprinting

various patterns onto textiles, by means of chiselled wooden blocks.

Today, India is one of the largest producers and exporters of block

printed fabrics in the world. The museum also houses contemporary



textiles works, featuring pioneering designs fashioned by talented

artisans. The structure was brilliantly restored employing traditional

resources, age-old design approaches, and expert local craftsmen,

earning a much deserved UNESCO award for ‘Cultural Heritage

Conservation.

areas to be protected under Project Tiger and is one of India’s largest

conservation areas today. Lush Sal and bamboo forests are interspersed

with vast grassy meadows. The Banjaar river forms the southwestern

border of the park and provides a steady water source for the abundant

wildlife.



Banjaar Tola: Banjaar Tola is an elegant safari lodge ideally located

Day 11 To 12 – Kanha

Explore the dense jungles of Kanha National Park on early morning and

afternoon park drives in an open safari vehicle. An experienced

naturalist will accompany you, explaining and pointing out interesting

flora and fauna.

One of the joys of exploring this park is the range of habitats each with

their own characteristics. There are large expanses of mixed deciduous

forest with stretches of tall sal (Shorea robusta) trees with breaks of

bamboo. Riverine patches are dissected by streams of gin-clear water

which make for perfect cooling spots for the animals. Kanha is famous

for its vast meadows or ‘maidans’, many of which were previously

‘forest villages’. These fields are excellent habitat for large herds of

spotted deer and Swamp deer that are preyed on by packs of wild dogs

or ‘dhole’, as well as tiger and leopard. All of these are interconnected

by an excellent network of forest tracks and dirt roads.

Note: Kanha National Park Tiger Reserve is closed for park drives on
