Tourist hotspots and luxury hotels and resorts are opening up gradually in India, but if the COVID-19 scare is still stopping you from taking the public transport, we recommend you take these road trips instead, to some of the most breathtaking properties of Oberoi Hotels & Resorts. After all, it’s about time you satiated that wanderlust soul of yours.
As India entered the first phase of unlocking, further easing of restrictions that were imposed earlier to curb the spread of COVID-19 has been set in motion. In fact, certain travel restrictions have also been eased and limited operation of trains, flights and buses have been permitted. However, travellers are still scared to share space with strangers, and as we wait for complete travel to resume, more are likely to initially opt for road trips, to closer destinations, rather than taking public transport, so that they can drive safe in the comfort of their own car, and only with their family and friends. Keeping the current scenario in mind, we bring to you these luxurious properties by Oberoi Hotels & Resorts that you can easily drive to from New Delhi.
1. The Oberoi Rajvilas, Jaipur
