Where we travel
Two states and India's classic first trip
We start with the places we know best — Rajasthan, Gujarat and the Golden Triangle of Delhi, Agra and Jaipur — and add new states one at a time.
The Golden Triangle
Delhi · Agra · Jaipur
The Taj Mahal, Mughal Delhi and the Pink City in five unhurried days — the route most first-time visitors to India begin with, and a natural start for a longer Rajasthan tour.

Sample tours to start from
Every itinerary is a starting point. Change the nights, the hotels or the order of places — we re-plan the route around you.
Holidays for
Every kind of traveller, one kind of care
A honeymoon, a family trip with grandparents, a company offsite or a first visit to India each need a different plan. Here's how we approach each.
On the road with
Vibrantcar's chauffeur fleet
Your car, your driver
The road is half the journey. Our own group drives it.
Your car and driver come from Vibrantcar, the chauffeur-driven car business of Vibrantcar Rentals Private Limited — the same company that plans your trip, not an outside vendor booked at the last minute.
- A private, air-conditioned car for your party alone
- The right size for your group: sedan, SUV, tempo traveller or coach
- Pickup at the airport, station or your hotel
- Driving days planned around your pace, with breaks

Why Connecting Vacations
Small details, planned properly
What you can expect on every trip, whether it's a weekend in Jaipur or two weeks across two states.
Planned by people who live here
Our team is in Jaipur. We know which roads are slow, which forts are crowded at ten and where the sunset is worth the drive.
Private, never a coach tour
Your car, your driver, your timings. If you're a group, the whole trip is planned for your group alone.
Cars and drivers from our own group
Transport comes from Vibrantcar, part of the same company, so the people who plan your trip also run your car.
Hotels you choose
3-star, 4-star, 5-star or heritage palaces and havelis. Every hotel is named in your quote before you book.
Itemised, adjustable quotes
See what each part of the trip costs and change it line by line, instead of a single unexplained package price.
Easy to reach
English and Hindi, by phone, WhatsApp or email — before you book and while you travel.

Questions
Good to know
Straight answers to what travellers ask us first.
What is Connecting Vacations?
Connecting Vacations is a tour company based in Jaipur, Rajasthan. It plans private tours of Rajasthan, Gujarat and the Golden Triangle (Delhi, Agra and Jaipur) for families, couples, groups, companies and international travellers. Connecting Vacations is a unit of Vibrantcar Rentals Private Limited.
Are your tours private or group tours?
Our tours are private: the car, the driver and the plan are for your party alone. If you are travelling as a group — friends, a family reunion or a company team — the whole tour is planned for your group only.
How much does a tour of Rajasthan or Gujarat cost?
The price depends on the number of days, the hotel category (3-star, 4-star, 5-star or heritage), the season, the number of travellers and the size of the car. We send an itemised quote for your dates so you can see exactly what is included and adjust it.
What kind of car will we travel in?
You travel in a private air-conditioned car with a driver from Vibrantcar, chosen for your group and luggage: a sedan or SUV for two to four people, a tempo traveller (a 12- to 17-seat minibus) or a coach for larger groups. The same car and driver usually stay with you for the whole tour.
How many days do I need for a tour?
Five days is comfortable for the Golden Triangle of Delhi, Agra and Jaipur; eight days covers the classic Rajasthan route of Jaipur, Pushkar, Jodhpur and Udaipur; and twelve days adds the desert at Jaisalmer and Bikaner. In Gujarat, four to six days suits one circuit, such as Kutch or Dwarka, Somnath and Gir.
Do you organise tours for international travellers?
Yes. We plan private tours of the Golden Triangle, Rajasthan and Gujarat for visitors from abroad, with airport pickup, a private car and driver, licensed guides at the main sights and a pace that allows for jet lag. Visitors should apply for an Indian e-Visa only on the Government of India's official website.
How do I book a tour with Connecting Vacations?
Send an enquiry from this website, or call or WhatsApp +91 73007 82140, with your dates, the number of travellers and the places you'd like to see. We reply with an itinerary and an itemised quote, adjust it with you, and confirm the booking once you accept it and pay the advance stated on the quote.
