6:30 am. Your cab pulls out of Jaipur. By 8:45 you are crossing Ajmer. By noon you are past Pali. By 1:30 pm you are looking up at Mehrangarh Fort. That is the shape of a good Jaipur to Jodhpur day. It is also the shape of a bad one, if you leave at 10 […]
Between 5 and 45 degrees. That is the range of a Rajasthan year. A January night in the desert can drop to single digits. A May afternoon in Jaipur can cross 45. So the honest answer to “when should I go?” is “it depends on what you can stand and what you want to see.” […]
How do you get from Jaipur airport to the city? Four ways work: a pre-booked taxi, a prepaid or app cab, a city bus, or the metro with a short taxi ride. Which one is right depends on your luggage, your arrival time and where you are staying. The airport is not far. It sits […]
Four hours. Six hours. Nine hours. These three numbers explain most Rajasthan road trips from Jaipur. Everything else is a detail. Kota, Agra and Ajmer sit inside the four-hour ring. Udaipur and Jodhpur sit near six or seven. Jaisalmer and Mount Abu sit near nine. If you know which ring your destination is in, you […]
About three weeks. That is how long you have before the fair is expected to begin. Most visitors lose the fair before it starts, at the booking stage. Rooms go first. Cabs go next. By the second week of November, what is left is what nobody wanted. This post is a countdown. It tells you […]
Diwali is almost here. The main Lakshmi Puja falls on Sunday, 8 November 2026, and many families are planning a short break around the festival. Most of them ask us the same thing: “We only have five days. Is a Rajasthan Tour Package 4N/5D enough, or will we come back tired and disappointed?” It’s a […]
A couple got married on a Thursday night in Jodhpur. Friday was the vidaai. Saturday morning, 6 am, they were on a flight to start their honeymoon. The honeymoon was lovely on paper. Five cities in six days. Early starts, long drives, a new hotel every night. By day three the bride was ill and […]
A family from Jaipur decided on Mount Abu for a long weekend. Friday evening plan. “It is only Rajasthan, how far can it be?” They left at 4 pm. Reached Abu Road after dark. Then came the hill. Twenty-five kilometres of hairpin bends, in the dark, with two kids feeling sick in the back seat. […]
A family from Pune landed in Jaipur on Dhanteras last year. They had a cab booked. The cab came. Then the trouble began. The old city was jammed. Roads near the main bazaars were closed to cars after sunset. Their hotel was inside the busy zone. The driver stopped a kilometre away and said, “Sir, […]
A couple from Surat had a free Saturday in Jaipur. They asked their hotel for “a nice day trip.” The hotel suggested Ranthambore. Safari included. They left at 9 am. Reached the gate after noon. Missed the morning safari slot entirely. Took a late one, saw a few deer, and drove back in the dark. […]
