The platter of Rajasthani cuisine is tempered with endless temptations. Experimenting with its many delights is an integral part of a visit to Jaipur. Bump up your food fiesta in the Pink City by enrolling in a cooking class, which takes you behind the table to the kitchens of a noble family from the former state of Jaipur. Please your palate, enjoy traditional hospitality and go home equipped with the fine art of traditional Rajasthani cooking.
Jaipur is a feast for the senses in every way, including its gastronomy. The local food of Rajasthan is a sensory explosion with its bright colour, blended spices and interesting ingredients that draw from the climate and topography of the region. Recipes are heavily based on hardy grains, millets, gram, berries, roots and beans…all of which thrive in the harsh arid desert of the region. Foods are cooked for a longer shelf life using ghee and oils and rich non-vegetarian dishes often feature in the diet.
A long and rich legacy of Rajputana royalty has influenced the variety of gastronomy as well as its standards. The kitchens of Maharajas are renowned for their heirloom recipes and cooking techniques. Go on a culinary adventure in Jaipur to learn the basics of authentic Rajasthani cooking at the private home of a noble family.
Delve deep into the craft, understand the passion that tempers every family meal and know about the traditional recipes passed on over generations. Join your generous hosts at the dining table after the cooking demonstration and exchange thoughts about the glory of the past. This is a food tour with a royal touch.

I will begin by saying that I had a FANTASTIC time in India. It was one of the best trips I've ever taken and I'm truly looking forward to hopefully having you book other trips for me in India.
I must say everything was planned to perfection. Each guide in every city was knowledgeable; especially the guide you arranged for us in Udaipur. We really enjoyed getting to know our guides Musheer and Kishore. We experienced the real India and appreciated the detailed itinerary your team created for us. The hotels were fantastic! In every hotel, the chef paid us a visit to make sure that we had meals suitable for us. We also enjoyed all the extra shopping excursions that were suggested.
The trip was a mega success and your team did a great job. Thanks to Footprint for everything. The entire family had a great time! The exclusive kalaripayattu demonstration was absolutely engaging and we loved every bit of the special private stand-up by Alex Babu (of Alex in Wonderland fame).
Thank you for a great trip! We especially enjoyed driving through the desertland into Jaisalmer; we also thoroughly enjoyed Bikaner, its Havelis and the Fort. Catching the daily life in Mumbai was a unique and eye-opening experience! All the hotels chosen are excellent with wonderful staff. Thank you!
Thank you for a wonderful trip to Kerala. We loved the village life walk and Fort Cochin walk. The backwater cruise in a traditional country boat was an incredible experience. A meal with the local family, living on an island in the backwaters, offered us an excellent opportunity to interact, learn and share. We loved every minute of our holiday! Thanks!
As a solo traveller, I felt safe and was exceptionally well taken care of. The cooking class in Jaipur was extremely enjoyable. The food, chef, and his wife were all exceptional and made for a lovely evening. Also, our expectations were definitely exceeded at a private residence, spending time with the elephants and lunching. Thanks!!
I loved India and thank you very much for arranging everything. It was a fabulous trip. Big kudos to you and your team. The tour guides and drivers were excellent. I loved the artisan walk, discovering the artistic treasures of Udaipur, meeting local potters and painters.
Thanks for arranging everything to precision – it was super smooth and we had a very good darshan!
Thanks for organising a great trip to Lucknow and Varanasi. The hotels at both the places were excellent; we had a great guide in Varanasi who went beyond the designated tour route and showed us around. The food tour in Lucknow was amazing and re-discovering the Awadhi Cuisine was a great experience – the kebabs were out of the world!
It was a terrific experience to spot the King of the jungle in all their glory at Gir. We had a very good experience overall.
It was a perfect leisure getaway – thanks for organising this! We loved the French Connection Trail; the guide took us through the French quarter sharing some incredible stories from the colonisation. We enjoyed the hotel and the service!
