of the town of Amer, its traditions and the grand lifestyle of the
royal family. After the show, enjoy a delectable dinner at a popular

After pickup from your Jaipur
hotel in the evening, your English-speaking driver will take you to
Amber Fort (Amer Fort), a beautiful fort located high on a hill in the
nearby city of Amer. Here, you’ll watch the amazing Light and Sound
Show!
Settle into your seat at the bottom of the hill and watch as the
story of Amber Fort comes to life, blending history, anecdotes, music
and light effects.
During the 50-minute show, admire the
colorful lights that illuminate the structure and reflect beautifully on
Maota Lake, and gain an understanding of Amber Fort’s legendary past,
dating back more than 600 years. Learn about the 28 kings of the
Kachwaha Dynasty who ruled a number of kingdoms in the area and see how
they played a part in changing the destiny of medieval India. You’ll
leave the show with a deeper understanding of how the Indian state of
Rajasthan has developed its unique identity.
Afterward, you’ll be taken to Surabhi Restaurant for dinner. Located
in a more than 300-year-old palace in Jaipur, Surabhi was once the home
of Rao Kripa Ram, the Prime Minister of Sawai Jai Singh and founder of
Jaipur.
The restaurant serves several different cuisines including
traditional Indian, Chinese, local Rajasthani and European. Indulge in
freshly baked Indian bread and see food being made in the tandoor (clay
oven) in the eating area.
While dining, you can enjoy a variety of entertainment, such as a puppet show, or enjoy songs sung by Rajasthani bhopas (Rajasthani
priest singers of folk deities). Browse through the coffee-table books
on Rajasthan and India or visit its turban museum (free entry, closes by
