Sydney-based freelance photographer, Valerie Martin, is running a new tour to Rajasthan, India in November 2011 and February 2012. Following on the success of two photography trips to Ethiopia, as well as requests of previous tour participants, Ms Martin decided to branch out and introduce one of the Subcontinent’s most exotic destinations, Rajasthan.
PhotoAdvenTours specialises in taking small groups of enthusiastic photographers – from beginners to advanced – to some of the world’s most photogenic locales. Accompanied by a professional photographer, participants are allowed plenty of time for both photography and tuition.
Rajasthan is said to be a vivid kaleidoscope of colour and a photographer’s paradise with beautiful maharajahs’ palaces, an ethnically diverse population and bustling bazaars. As well as exploring the famous palaces and forts, including the Taj Mahal, the tour will visit romantic desert towns Udaipur and Jaisalmer, the pink city of Jaipur, and offer camel rides in the dunes.
Ms Martin has teamed up with Robin Hastings, a specialist on Asia and Africa, who has developed an exciting 19-day package taking in the highlights of India’s largest state. The tour costs $7,250 and includes twin-share accommodation in historic hotels, transfers, private transport, local and Australian guides, most meals and photographic tutoring.
