ROYAL TREATMENT
A remarkable private residence, the present Maharaja is still in residence, so expect the royal treatment.
The last of the great Maharaja’s palaces, the Umaid Bhawan is a fusion of the great Indian palace architecture that stretches back to the time of the Moguls, and the pinnacle of western design styles. High-domed cupolas recall the Renaissance, but are embellished in true, ornate Indian style. Inside the concepts of famous architect Henry Lanchester are complemented by Art Deco geometric floors and furnishings, and the exotic murals of Stefan Norblin.
The Umaid Bhawan is so extravagant and so regal that it remains the private home of the present Maharaja and his family. To stay here is the equivalent of spending a couple of weeks in Buckingham Palace whilst the Queen is in residence! Welcome to a royal world.

An amazing team delivering a truly personal service. Always available and ready to help, they go above and beyond to ensure every holiday is exceptional. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and we couldn’t recommend them more highly.
From the first conversation to the final day of our trip, Catherine and the team were helpful, efficient and easy to reach. Their recommendations not only improved our original plans but also made the whole holiday more cost-effective. Even when we needed assistance while away, their response was immediate. We wouldn’t hesitate to travel with them again.
Excellent service throughout, with helpful and kind staff at every stage. When our return flight from Australia via the Middle East was cancelled, the team stepped in quickly to resolve everything, making what could have been a stressful situation feel straightforward and well handled.
