Rajasthan is now added to my must-drive-to list once I get my DL, thanks to you.
And please keep writing more travelogues, as they are a treat to read.
Just curious, when was this trip taken? Asking it because there's no Sherpa in the story?
Also, loved the sarcasm in the title, with the words 'royal' and 'utility'.

Thanks a lot Neel. Yes, this trip was done quite sometime back, the Thar was not in the scene. Quote:

Thanks Saurabh. Spot on, that is the reason I took the picture. Quote:

Thanks Arav. I get the drift, the Tusker looks much better nowadays

But, this year have been planning to do a Rajasthan Road Trip from Kolkata with family sometime during September-October 2016. Some details from your travelogue shall come in handy for my Road Trip. Or should I say our Road Trip. Hope you are game for another Rajasthan Trip this year.
Hope you would not mind me sharing some recent pictures of our Ancestral Haveli (pronounced as "Haeli") @ Nawalgarh : |
The Haveli looks beautiful, thanks for sharing the pics. I will try my best to be a part of the trip, it is surely going to be a lifetime experience. Quote:

Thanks once again Arav and it is never too late! Quote:

Thanks Samba. Rajasthan is a riot of colours and your travelogue will be a treat to our eyes once you complete the trip. Arav is a pro on Rajasthan, but still if you need any info let me know because the travelogue is not at all detailed. Quote:

Sutripta Da, first of all sorry for my cheeky reply to your first post, could not resist myself. Thought of editing it, but time was up. Here I am trying to be all elusive about the timelines, I am sure you know why, but you are bent on getting the details. You know about the timing because we had a long discussion after the trip on tightening the nuts on a Bolero at frequent intervals :-D Quote:

Thanks for sharing such informative travelogue. |
Thanks a lot PointZero. I have been put up quite a few travelogues on tbhp over the last so many years, but you guys are rocking the travelogue section! Keep it up.
