The Ride

7th - 21st of October 2001

The Ride

Unless you have been to India and ridden in this vast and majestic land you could never fully appreciate the quality of the experience that joining this ride will bring to you life. No second class Hotels or surly service here, here you will enjoy the opulence and graceful service of a bygone age. Traditional Sikh
No tired and weary horses unhappily treading the same well trod trail, but sleek well groomed horses with a groom apiece that enjoy every days ride. In Iinder Jit Singh you will have the supreme guide, an expert on the region, of the land, it's people, their colourful majestic, noble and sometimes warlike history. Co-leading the ride John is a true Kilt wearing Scotsman who loves the outdoor life and anything with a touch of adventure. His 35 years experience of training horses and riders adds to the ride and makes for some interesting story telling at the end of the day.

The Pink City.

Jaipur is the home of Indian polo during the days the English and the Maharajas played it from the 20's to the 50's. The famous Polo Bar is an apt watering hole, situated in the Rambagh Palace once home of the Rulers of Jaipur.
The Pink city of Jaipur once capital of a state of the same name sent it's own army to fight in world war 1 for the British Crown. It is both the capital of Rajastan and the hub of your riding and polo activities. It is also the home of the famous 61st Cavalry once known as the the Jodhpur Lancers which fought under Allenby in Palestine and made a successful cavalry charge to take the previously impregnable Turkish cannon positions after an oath unto death. Still celebrated by the regiment every 23rd of September as "Haifa Day". Riding in India


Jaipur is a city where you can take in the very essence of India, yet it has it's own particular culture and an amazing mix of modern facilities married with vestiges of old world, which bring a little grace and good service. Those who love shopping can get involved in the hustle and bustle of going into town to buy anything from tie-dyed clothing to a camel and the jewelry is quite affordable and truly beautiful.

India India will mesmerise you.

A mysterious country of contrasts, which has managed to retained much of it's old-fashioned grandeur, India has a charming way of leaving those who visit her with warm lasting memories that will stay with you for the rest of your life.
