Ghanerao Residency
Hotel or lodge, twin sharing
5 days, planned by The Monsoon Ledger
Marwari horses have inward-curving ears and a temperament that rewards a light hand. The assessment ride is how the stable decides which one you get.

“India on licensed guides and heritage stays”
Licensed guides in every city and heritage properties where they exist. Named after the ledgers Rajasthani havelis kept, which is where several of the stays came from.
5 days of proper riding. The support vehicle was never far when someone needed it. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing. Worth every rupee.
Route planning was the strong point — long days, but the stops were in the right places. Accommodation was a notch better than the price suggested. Guides answered every question, including the daft ones.
Machines were well maintained and the daily briefings were short and useful. Accommodation was a notch better than the price suggested. Meals were good throughout and the vegetarian options weren't an afterthought. Worth every rupee.
Rajasthan on two wheels is the way to see it. No complaints about the organisation. Simple food, well made, and enough of it. Recommended.
You must be able to walk, trot and canter confidently in open country and be comfortable for four to five hours in the saddle. This is not a place to learn — the assessment ride on day one is real and people are moved to the vehicle.
