About Village Tour –
A Rajasthan village tour is less a journey than an experience. It lets you immerse yourself in the pace of rural existence, its abiding simplicity, traditions and age-old customs.

Rajasthan Village Tour Itinerary:
Day 1: Jaipur arrival & village tour
Upon your arrival in Jaipur, you will check into the hotel and relax. Later, get ready to focus on a rapid shift to a surrounding village, Sanganer or Bagru, which is famous for its traditional artwork rather than instant city tourism.

Afternoon can be spent on a light orientation to the neighbourhood or perhaps a leisurely walk for a reconnaissance of the territory. A good place to begin would be a Sanganer or Bagru block printing workshop, where one may observe the intricate process of fabric printing and have a go at it as well.
A local Rajasthani meal prepared with local ingredients would likely be served for supper to the host family or village community. A relaxing evening under the stars or casually socialising with others would be soothing.
