i would suggest if you like to take a package than take the one with no seniors. there are some packages with kids ask your agent. if you hire a car and driver, you might end up paying way more as that driver will take you to places they deal with.

If there are 3-4 of you, the private car and driver option offers sensible value for money. It will be more convenient, you can choose departure times as per your own preference, you can linger over places that you are more interested in, and you can find food and sightseeing that suits the teens, rather than going with what the group does. You can also do some parts of the journey by rail or flight.

I would recommend adding Ranthambore Tiger Sanctuary to the itinerary if you have time. It is interesting for people of all ages, whereas the monuments might leave the teens stone cold! My daughter is 15, and when we travel with her we usually add some activity-based things to the itinerary. Similarly, the camel safari in Jaisalmer might be interesting for the teens, and also the elephant ride in Amber Fort (Jaipur).

You can google 'Rajasthan itinerary" on the internet, and then look at some of the typical things that people do. That should allow you to draw up a plan of your own.

Delhi can be expensive for hotels, so once your plans are known, please ask for hotel advice. Other places in Rajasthan have beautiful heritage properties that don't cost the earth. You can use a local (i.e Delhi or Rajasthan) travel agent to make your hotel bookings and arrange car as well as rail and flight tickets. The important thing is to make sure you get to select the hotels.

You could also use agents based in Rajasthan if youre going to be travelling mostly in Rajasthan. Look at the Rajasthan Association of Tour Operators website - www.ratorajasthan.org

I am just so tired of safevoyagers and their fake recommendations. Sheesh. You'd think the man would learn something from his previous experiences getting debarred from this forum. But no, here's a new id again, 'brunotoulouse' this time.
