Our Bikaner day trips turn this medieval city inside out for our travellers to explore. Established at the end of the 15th century by a prince of Jodhpur, Bikaner is today Rajasthan’s 5th largest city. With red sandstone buildings, made by the nobles and merchants during the city’s prosperous trade hub times dotting the city’s landscape, Bikaner is a picturesque spot in the desert state.
Sandstone forts, palaces and temples await exploration in this medieval town, as do heritage homes and colorful and traditional markets. The town has been bestowed the name ‘Camel Country’ since it has the best riding camels found anywhere in India. Discover the secrets of this desert town with Bikaner day trips, led by our accomplished storytellers.
The Bikaner Old City Walk in the company of our local storytellers is a brilliant introduction to the colorful life in this desert city. Explore the bangle, spice and vegetable markets, the ‘tea street’ and the red-stone havelis of Bikaner during this walk. Transfers from and to the hotel will be via the colorful tuktuk - also an experience worth remembering.
