Yoga & Wellness Retreat Rajasthan

Imagine starting each day with yoga as the light comes up over a lake, eating simple, nourishing food, and ending the evening with quiet breathing and meditation while temple bells ring in the distance. No alarms for monuments, no rushing between cities, no group schedule to keep up with.

This private 8-day retreat brings yoga, rest and gentle discovery together in two of Rajasthan’s calmest places. You spend four nights by the lakes and palace gardens of Udaipur and three nights in Pushkar, a small holy town around a sacred lake. A certified yoga teacher works with your party alone, and you have your own car and driver throughout.

What is this yoga retreat in Rajasthan?

It is a private 8-day yoga and wellness holiday in Udaipur and Pushkar, Rajasthan. It includes a 75-minute morning yoga class most days with a certified teacher, a 45-minute evening session of breathing, meditation or yoga nidra, spa treatments, sattvic vegetarian breakfast and dinner, and short, quiet outings. It suits beginners and regular practitioners. Prices start from about Rs. 91,800 per person (twin share, Premium tier), and the retreat runs all year.

This is a yoga retreat Rajasthan, guests can book privately for one person, a couple or a small party. It works as a wellness tour Rajasthan guests can take at an easy pace, with daily practice and quiet outings in two settings, and as an Udaipur Pushkar yoga retreat with a certified teacher, spa treatments and sattvic meals. It is a restful India yoga holiday, a lakeside Rajasthan yoga retreat and an 8 day yoga and wellness trip for beginners and regular practitioners alike.

Three tiers change the hotels and the number of spa treatments. Premium uses a lake-view comfort hotel in Udaipur and a garden hotel in Pushkar, with one treatment per person. Luxury uses The Leela Palace Udaipur and Gulaab Niwaas Palace, with two treatments per person. Ultra-Luxury uses Taj Lake Palace and the top suite at Gulaab Niwaas Palace, with three treatments per person. The yoga programme is the same in every tier.

Why a Yoga Retreat in Rajasthan?

Most people think of Rishikesh or Kerala for yoga in India. Rajasthan offers something different: a retreat that feels like a slow holiday, with lake views, palace gardens and the gentle rhythm of a pilgrim town.

• Udaipur, the City of Lakes. Calm water, quiet gardens and sunset boat rides make it easy to slow down.

• Pushkar, a sacred small town. Days begin with temple bells and end with lamps glowing on the ghats. Meat and alcohol are not sold near the lake, which suits a mindful week.

• Comfort, not austerity. You practise in a quiet hotel garden or room, then rest by a pool or enjoy a massage, rather than living by ashram rules.

• Just one drive. You unpack only twice in eight days.

The Retreat Program

Every day follows a gentle, steady rhythm, so your body and mind can settle quickly.

Outings are short and calm, never longer than about three hours, and none needs an early alarm. You can skip anything at any time.

Your Yoga Teacher

A retreat is only as good as its teacher, so we are clear about who will guide you.

• Recognised certification, such as Yoga Alliance RYT-200 or above, or certification from India’s Ministry of AYUSH Yoga Certification Board.

• At least five years of teaching experience.

• Clear English, and experience adapting classes for beginners, regular practitioners and guests with minor injuries.

• Named in advance. We send your teacher’s name, training and background before you book, and you can speak with them first.

3-TIER PRICING (PER COUPLE, TWIN SHARING)

Rates are indicative and modelled on BizareXpedition’s current package pricing reference, not a live quote or a contracted rate. Teacher and treatment rates are modelled. The final price varies within the range with hotel availability on your dates, and is highest around Christmas, New Year and the Pushkar Camel Fair.

Who This Retreat Is For

• Complete beginners who want a gentle, private introduction to yoga.

• Regular practitioners looking for a week of daily practice somewhere new.

• Solo travellers who want a safe, supported and peaceful trip.

• Couples, including partners who don’t do yoga. They can enjoy the spa, the pool and the outings instead.

• Busy professionals who need a real break and a digital reset.

Please note

This is a yoga and wellness holiday. It is not a medical, therapy or treatment programme, and it does not replace your doctor’s advice.

SEASON ADJUSTMENTS

WHY BOOK THIS WITH BIZAREXPEDITION

Guests who choose a retreat look closely at the teacher, the setting and the daily plan. Here is how this one is set out.

• A named, certified teacher. Our standard is a teacher with a recognised yoga certification, such as Yoga Alliance RYT-200 or above or the Ministry of AYUSH Yoga Certification Board, and at least five years of teaching experience, who teaches in English. The teacher’s name, training and background are sent before you book.

• A daily plan you can read in advance. Each day lists the yoga class, the evening session, the meals and the outings. Day plans can be changed to suit your level, whether you are a beginner or a regular practitioner.

• Two settings, one drive. Four nights in Udaipur and three in Pushkar mean you unpack twice in eight days. The only long drive, about five hours on Day 5, has a halt on the way.

• –  Sattvic food, planned for you. Meals are vegetarian and freshly cooked, with plain, light dishes, and the kitchen is told about allergies and preferences before you arrive. Pushkar is a vegetarian town, and the plan keeps Udaipur meals light too.

• A private car and driver, with bottled water on board. The same driver and car stay with you for all eight days. Sealed bottled water is in the car every day, and the guide keeps a first-aid kit and your hotel addresses in one place.

• Direct ground operator. BizareXpedition Services Pvt. Ltd. (CIN U63090UR2016PTC007433), based in Haridwar, runs this route itself, with hotels, car, teachers and therapists booked directly, and a 24-hour contact number is shared before you land.

THE RETREAT PROGRAMME

Please tell us before booking about any injury, pregnancy, heart or blood-pressure condition, back or joint problem, or recent surgery, and check with your doctor that yoga and spa treatments are suitable. The teacher adapts the practice to your level, and you can stop or skip anything at any time.

PRACTICAL NOTES

• Your teacher.

  The teacher’s name, certification and years of teaching are sent before you book, and you can speak with the teacher first. Teachers are chosen for clear English and for adapting a class to beginners, regular practitioners and guests with minor injuries.

• Scope of the programme.

  This is a yoga and wellness holiday, not a medical, therapy or treatment programme. Spa treatments are relaxation massages by trained therapists. Tell the teacher and the therapist about injuries, pregnancy, allergies and skin conditions beforehand.

• What to bring.

  Light, loose clothing for yoga, a scarf or shawl for the cool mornings and the temples, a refillable bottle, and your own yoga mat if you prefer it. Mats are provided.

• Food.

  Meals are vegetarian and freshly cooked, with light, plain dishes and little oil. Vegan and allergy needs are noted at booking. Pushkar is a vegetarian town, and meat and alcohol are not sold near the lake.

• Water.

  Drink only sealed bottled water, and use it to brush your teeth. Avoid ice and tap water, and eat food that is hot and freshly cooked.

• Health before you travel.

  See your doctor or a travel clinic four to six weeks before departure about routine and travel vaccinations. BizareXpedition does not give medical advice. Bring your usual medicines.

• Digital quiet.

  The retreat is built for time away from screens. Wi-Fi is available at the hotels, and the driver and guide stay reachable. You choose how much to switch off.

• Dress and temples.

  Light, loose clothing that covers shoulders and knees suits both the weather and the temples. Shoes come off at temples, and Pushkar’s lake has its own rules on dress and photography.

• Approaches from strangers.

  Near the ghats and the markets, people may offer to guide you, sell you something or hand you flowers for a paid blessing. You can say no politely and keep walking. Your guide walks with you.

• Visa.

  Citizens of many Western countries apply online for an India e-Tourist visa at indianvisaonline.gov.in. Apply well before you fly, and check the current rules and fees for your nationality, since they can change.

• Tipping.

  Tips for the driver, teacher, therapists and hotel staff are at your discretion. A common range is Rs.500–1,000 per day for the driver and guide combined, and small change for hotel porters.
