Shahpura Bagh
Located roughly equidistant between the Rajasthani cities of Jaipur and Udaipur, Shahpura Bagh makes the perfect stop-off on your Rajasthan journey, or a destination in its own right. Surrounded by two manmade lakes, the property is an aquatic refuge amongst the otherwise dry landscape of Rajasthan. The 11 luxury suites are situated within 45 acres of gardens and farmland and are individually furnished with antiques and fine fabrics, and some feature ensuite whirlpool bathrooms. From here you can boat and birdwatch on the lakes or take side trips to nearby forts, villages and temples.

Naturalist guides were brilliant. We seem to have been given the best one in each place. Had same one for whole of stay in each place. Cultural guides gave just enough information and then left you to ask questions about what interested you which is what we like. They did not seem to have a set patter. Helpful about photographic sites – i.e. good position to take photos.
[OVERALL STANDARD OF SERVICE] Excellent isn’t good enough. In every place we were treated like royalty. Totally relaxed and felt totally safe but not smothered.
[WILDLIFE HIGHLIGHTS] 11 tigers, innumerable rhino, wild elephants, buffalo, otters, hog and swamp deer, and wild boar. Birds at Keoladeo excellent. Watched leopard and three cubs at Siana for 1.5 hrs of exceptional viewing.
An outstanding holiday which far exceeded our expectations. Many people would enjoy it I’m sure.
