Travel guide
Rajasthan is the India many travellers picture before they arrive: hilltop forts that glow gold at sunset, palaces mirrored in still lakes, and camel bells drifting across the Thar desert. It is also a very large state. Jaipur and Jaisalmer are more than 550 km apart, and the drive from Udaipur to Jaisalmer takes most of a day, so the order of your stops matters as much as the stops themselves.
Many visitors begin in Jaipur, the Pink City, which is also the western corner of the Delhi–Agra–Jaipur Golden Triangle. Amer Fort, Hawa Mahal and the City Palace all sit within an hour of each other. From there the classic route heads west to Jodhpur, where Mehrangarh Fort looks down on a maze of blue-painted houses, and on to Jaisalmer, a living fort town on the edge of the desert. Udaipur, with its lakes and white marble palaces, is the slower and more romantic counterpoint, and works well at the start or end of a loop.
We plan every Rajasthan itinerary around your dates, pace and budget rather than a fixed coach schedule. That means choosing between heritage havelis and comfortable hotels, timing fort visits for the cooler morning hours, booking a desert camp with an honest picture of what's included, and leaving room for the moments that make Rajasthan memorable: a thali at a local dhaba, shopping for block prints and mojaris in the old bazaars, or watching the sun drop behind Jaisalmer's sandstone walls.
Rajasthan is at its best from October to March, when days are warm and nights are cool, though the desert gets properly cold in December and January. Tell us when you're free, how many people are travelling and what you'd love to see, and we'll send a day-by-day plan on WhatsApp that you can adjust before you book.



Where to go
Amer Fort, Hawa Mahal, the City Palace and Jantar Mantar make the Pink City the natural starting point. Give it at least two days, and reach Amer early, before the crowds and the heat build up.
The City of Lakes is Rajasthan at its most relaxed. Take a sunset boat ride on Lake Pichola, explore the City Palace, and catch the evening folk dance show at Bagore ki Haveli.
Mehrangarh Fort is one of the most impressive forts in India, and the walk down through the blue old city below it is a highlight on its own. Add Jaswant Thada and the clock tower market at Sardar Bazaar.
The Golden City rises out of the Thar desert. Explore the living fort and the carved Patwon ki Haveli, then head to the Sam or Khuri dunes for a camel ride, folk music and a night at a desert camp.
A small, sacred town wrapped around Pushkar Lake and its ghats, home to one of the very few Brahma temples in India. A peaceful stop between Jaipur and Jodhpur, famous for its camel fair around October–November.
For history lovers, the vast hill forts of Chittorgarh and Kumbhalgarh, whose walls run for around 36 km, fit neatly into an Udaipur-based itinerary.
One of the best places in India to spot wild tigers, about three to four hours from Jaipur. Jeep and canter safaris run in morning and afternoon slots and sell out early in peak season.
When to go
October to March is the best time to visit Rajasthan, with pleasant days and cool nights. Summers are very hot, and the monsoon turns Udaipur green but makes other cities humid.
October – March
Days of roughly 20–28°C and cool nights, ideal for forts, sightseeing and desert camps. Nights in Jaisalmer can drop to single digits in December and January, so pack warm layers.
April – June
Very hot, often above 40°C. Fewer crowds and lower hotel prices, but plan sightseeing for early mornings and evenings. Mount Abu, the state's only hill station, stays cooler.
July – September
Short, heavy showers fill Udaipur's lakes and turn the Aravalli hills green. Humid elsewhere, and some desert camps close for the season.
How long to stay
Sample routes to start from. We tailor every itinerary to your dates, pace and budget.
Jaipur → Pushkar
A short break covering Amer Fort, the Pink City's bazaars and a peaceful evening by Pushkar Lake.
Jaipur → Jodhpur → Jaisalmer
Forts, the blue city and a night in a desert camp: the classic first Rajasthan trip.
Jaipur → Pushkar → Jodhpur → Jaisalmer → Udaipur
The full loop at a comfortable pace, with time for Chittorgarh or Kumbhalgarh on the way.
For a first visit, 6–7 days covers Jaipur, Jodhpur and Jaisalmer without rushing. With 9–10 days you can add Udaipur and Pushkar. If you only have a long weekend, Jaipur with a day in Pushkar works well.
For most travellers it's the highlight of the trip: a camel or jeep ride on the dunes at sunset, folk music and dinner, then a night under clear desert skies. Camps range from simple tents to Swiss tents with attached bathrooms, and we'll match one to your budget and tell you exactly what's included.
Rajasthan is one of India's most visited states and is generally safe for families and women. As anywhere, use registered transport, avoid isolated areas late at night and keep valuables secure. We share driver and hotel details with you in advance.
Absolutely. Every itinerary we send is a starting point. You can swap cities, upgrade to heritage havelis, add a Ranthambore safari or slow the pace down. Just tell us on WhatsApp.
Light, breathable clothes that cover shoulders and knees are comfortable and respectful at temples. Carry a scarf or stole, a hat, sunscreen and good walking shoes, since forts involve a lot of climbing. In winter, add a warm jacket for the evenings.
