Day 2: Amber Fort by Elephant
After breakfast, head out to the Amber Fort, a Rajput extravanganza. Reach the fort on elephant back - subject to regulations and availability.

The private apartments begun by Man Singh in the 17th century combine Hindu and Mughal styles and the Sheesh Mahal (Hall of Mirrors), its walls covered with tiny mirrors, becomes a dazzling fantasy with the light of a single match!
