It’s no secret that Rajasthan is a pioneer when it comes to traditional handicrafts. When at Alila Fort Bishangarh, you can go meet with the local carpet weavers, jewellers and potters, and can even try your hand at the local crafts. Take a camel ride through the Bishangarh village and get a glimpse of rural Rajasthani life. Watch the farmers carry on about their daily activities while enjoying a delicious high-tea at Chatri with panoramic views of the Aravalli hills.

2. Bring on the adventure

From this property, you can take a bicycle or choose to hike through the Aravalli hills — the oldest range of fold mountains in India. Your path will include lush meadows, serene landscapes, a peek at rural life, and mesmerising sunrise and sunset views. This is a great way to explore the surroundings at your own pace that will undoubtedly leave you feeling refreshed.

For that extra dose of adrenaline, you can choose from an off-roading jeep ride, enjoy a birds-eye-view sight of the Rajasthani landscape from a helicopter or a hot air balloon, and wrap up your experience with a tailor-made private picnic lunch in the hills.

3. Indulge your senses
