Aman - I - Khas
Location:

New
Delhi, with its broad boulevards and tree-lined avenues, is the gateway to Amanresorts
stays in Rajasthan, India. The international airport is located approximately
35km from the city centre. The Aman-i-Khás Experience includes one night
in the capital, New Delhi followed by three nights at the camp itself.
Amanresorts provides operational assistance to The Manor hotel, set in one-and-a-half
acres of landscaped garden in the green Friends Colony suburb. This intimate
12-suite hotel is a comfortable overnight retreat. At The Manor, a complimentary
car and driver are available for Aman-i-Khás guests to shop and enjoy
the sights of Delhi.
Guests can travel to Aman-i-Khás by train, plane and vehicle, or by helicopter
and Amanresorts recommends that from Delhi, guests travel by train. Those staying
at The Manor receive a complimentary transfer to and from the airport as well
as to the train station the following day for their trip to Ranthambhore.
Travel time by train to Sawai Madhopur station, on the outskirts of the park,
is approximately three-and-three-quarter hours and drinks and light snacks are
provided. Amanresorts has done their best to ensure that the journey runs smoothly
and guests travel in a compartment for two to four persons chaperoned by a member
of staff from Aman-i-Khás. On arrival in Sawai Madhopur, they are taken
on the

15-minute journey to the camp itself in an open, jeep style vehicle arriving
in time for dinner.
Alternatively, travel by private helicopter is possible and there are landing
pads ten minutes from the camp. Price and details on application.
