Day 1: Land in Jaipur, Raja Vibes

Fly into Jaipur, Rajasthan’s Pink City, where the streets hum with chaos and color. We’ll grab you from the airport and drop you at a haveli-style guesthouse, all carved wood and courtyard charm. Afternoon’s for meeting your guide—a local who knows every ghost story and raja legend. Over buttery dal and naan, they’ll spin a yarn about a princess’s ghost haunting Amber Fort. Quick wander through Jaipur’s bazaar—think bangles and spices—then crash early. Tomorrow’s packed.
Note: Jaipur’s hectic. Keep your wallet tight.

Day 2: Amber Fort and Haunted Bhangarh

Morning’s for Amber Fort, a massive hilltop palace that screams royalty. Walk its mirrored halls, where your guide shares a tale of a cursed mirror that traps souls. Then it’s a drive to Bhangarh Fort, India’s most haunted spot—locals won’t go near it after dark. The ruined temples and crumbling walls feel alive, and your guide tells a creepy story about a wizard who cursed the place. No staying past sunset (it’s legit banned). Back to Jaipur for a rooftop dinner, with stars and a ghost tale to keep you up.

Day 3: Road to Ranthambore

Head out to Ranthambore National Park, a 4-hour drive through dusty plains. Check into a jungle lodge near the park, where monkeys might nick your snacks. Afternoon’s a chill intro to the area—visit a village where locals worship tiger gods and share a story about a spirit who protects the forest. Evening’s for a pre-safari briefing with your guide, who swears they’ve seen a tiger ghost on moonlit nights. Dinner’s spicy curry under a banyan tree. Sleep with the jungle humming outside.
Pro tip: Bring binoculars. Tigers are sneaky.

Day 4: Tigers and Temples

Up at dawn for a jeep safari in Ranthambore—eyes peeled for tigers, leopards, and maybe a sloth bear. The park’s a mix of jungle and ruins, and your guide points out a 10th-century fort where a maharaja’s ghost supposedly roams. If you’re lucky, you’ll spot a tiger lounging by a lake (no promises, they’re wild). Afternoon’s for a nearby temple, sacred to Hanuman the monkey god, where the vibe’s intense and locals whisper about miracles. Back to the lodge for a storytelling night—think rajas, spirits, and cursed jewels.
Fun fact: Locals say Bhangarh’s ghosts hate cameras. Snap at your own risk.

Day 5: Back to Jaipur, Soul Lit

One last morning safari if you’re keen—another shot at that tiger. Then it’s a drive back to Jaipur, with a quick stop at a roadside dhaba for chai and paratha. Grab souvenirs—maybe a silver amulet or a Rajasthani miniature painting—to keep the vibes alive. You’re at the airport by afternoon, but Rajasthan’s magic clings like desert dust. Those forts, tigers, and haunted tales? They’re gonna live in your head rent-free.
