The local tour guides living in Delwara will happily accompany you and your children on a visit to the local potter where they can watch the creation of handicrafts that have been made in Rajasthan for hundreds of years. There are many other skilled workers in the village to meet and other creative activities, like needlework, to get involved in. (Cost: Guided tours- INR 300++)
The palace is not only stunning to stay in but exciting to explore. The huge complex and its ornate architectural design provides an infinite number of places to hide, including in its numerous terraces, alcoves and courtyards, not to mention its gardens. Please let Palace Services know if you are interested in arranging a game and they will help demarcate an area for you depending on the size of the party. (Complimentary)
A great activity for slightly older children is camel riding. Ride through the streets of Delwara and along the country road that winds around the outskirts of the village at the base of the Aravalli hills. The views are stunning and it's great fun. (INR 1500++ per ride)
There is a large collection of board games available for guests to borrow. These range from Pictionary, Monopoly, Ludo, Chess and Backgammon.

Delwara village epitomises the rich history of Rajasthan state. Traditionally the area was divided into kingdoms under the rule of tribal families. The Jhala Rajputs ruled the kingdom of Mewar wherein Delwara lay. Devigarh Palace was built at this strategic location in order to guard one of the three main passes into the valley of Udaipur. Due to its geographical importance, the principality of Delwara was awarded to Sajja Singh from Gujarat, for displaying his bravery and loyalty to Maharana Pratap of Mewar against the Mughal Emperor Akbar in the battle of Haldighati (1576), more information on this can be found below as part of our 'Battle Stories' experience.
Tours cost INR 300 and all money made from the walk is split between the guides, a fund for the local youth centre and walk expenses. We advise a 5pm start, which allows enough time to enjoy the village in daylight and most likely spot the local monkeys emerging from the trees at dusk, after a beautiful sunset
Eklingji is a 1000-year old temple complex dedicated to the god Shiva. It is only a short ride away from the hotel in the neighbouring village. It is an ideal choice for your first journey to explore Hindu religious practices, as the temple is usually not too crowded and in remarkably good condition.
The quality of the upkeep is due to the fact that Eklingji is serviced by the personnel of the Rajasthani maharana himself, who visits the temple every Monday, on the holy day of Shiva. The temple-complex consists of a main temple and 107 other shrines for the worship of the different manifestations of the god. The central temple houses a remarkable four-faced idol of Eklingji (Lord Shiva). The four faces of the idol represent Lord Shiva in his four forms. Carved out of black marble, the idol is 5 feet high. Eklingji is believed to be the presiding ruler of the Mewar region hence the reason why its kings are maharajas (princes) and not maharanas (kings). (Complimentary)
Nathdwara is famous for its Krishna temple which is home to Shrinathji, a 12th century idol of Krishna and the temple's namesake. Originally situated on Govardhan hill, near Mathura, it was moved to Nathdwara in the 17th century to protect it from the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb's campaign against Hindu worship in his empire.
The temple now attracts thousands of fervent devotees from all over India and the world. To get the most out of the trip we would advise that you visit with a guide from the hotel, to navigate the crowds and explain the reasons behind the traditional offerings being given. Men and women are separated during the induction to the temple but can rejoin once inside.
Please contact hotel for the timing of Prayer (Darshan).
