You travel in your own air-conditioned car with a driver who stays with you all day, and you see the landmarks that make Jaipur famous — Jaigarh Fort, Hawa Mahal, City Palace, Jal Mahal and Jantar Mantar — alongside a private guide. Monument tickets, meals and an Elephant Village visit can all be added on. Here is how the day runs.

Itinerary

  1. Pick up from anywhere in Delhi NCR

    Pickup is available from any hotel, residence, or airport in Delhi, Noida, Greater Noida, Gurgaon (Gurugram), Ghaziabad, or Faridabad — including Delhi (IGI) Airport, Hindon Airport in Ghaziabad, or Noida International Airport in Jewar.

    You can choose any pickup time from 4:00 AM to 8:00 AM, depending on where you are staying. You set off early in a private air-conditioned car for a comfortable drive of around 5 hours to Jaipur via the Delhi–Jaipur Expressway, stopping along the way whenever you wish. The car and driver remain with you for the whole day.

  2. Arrive in Jaipur — Meet Your Guide

    On arrival in Jaipur, your private guide will greet you and accompany you through the day’s sightseeing, sharing the stories and history of every monument.

  3. Visit Jaigarh Fort — Hilltop Mughal Fortress

    Begin at Jaigarh Fort, the hilltop fortress overlooking Jaipur, built by Sawai Jai Singh II in 1726. It houses Jaivana, once the world’s largest cannon on wheels, and offers commanding views across the Aravalli hills.

  4. Why Jaigarh Fort, Not Amber Fort

    You will notice we visit Jaigarh Fort rather than Amber Fort, and here is why. Amber Fort is famous for the elephant rides up to its gates, and a lot of our travelers would simply rather skip them. Jaigarh stands on the very same ridge and is every bit as grand. Would you prefer Amber Fort? We are happy to swap it in for a little extra cost, and your car can drive right up to the top of Amber Fort, so there is no elephant ride needed. Want to see both forts? We can arrange that too, for a little extra cost. Just tell us once you have booked.

  5. Hawa Mahal — Palace of Winds

    Stop at the Hawa Mahal, the iconic five-story “Palace of Winds” with its honeycomb facade of 953 small windows. Built in 1799, it allowed royal women to observe street life unseen. A favorite spot for photographs.

Before you go

Important notes for this tour.

  • This tour is operated entirely by private air-conditioned car — the same vehicle and driver stay with you from pickup in Delhi, through the sightseeing in Jaipur, and on the return to Delhi.
  • To beat the traffic, the best time to start is 4:00 AM to 6:00 AM.
  • You may keep your luggage in the car throughout the tour — your driver stays with the vehicle for the duration of the tour.
  • All Jaipur monuments are open seven days a week; there is no weekly closure day.
  • No “skip-the-line” system exists at the monuments. If any website claims otherwise, that information is incorrect.
  • Photography is permitted at most monuments; some interiors have restrictions or a small camera fee.
  • Comfortable clothing and footwear are recommended — the tour involves a fair amount of walking and some climbs.
  • Please carry a valid photo ID — it may be required at the monuments. A clear photograph of the ID on your mobile phone is also acceptable.

    Is this tour by car or by train?

    This tour is operated by private air-conditioned car throughout — Delhi to Jaipur, sightseeing in Jaipur, and the return to Delhi. A separate express-train version of this Jaipur day tour is available if you would prefer to travel by rail.

  5. 05

    Why is Amber Fort not included in the tour?

    We take you to Jaigarh Fort instead. Amber Fort is known for the elephant rides up the hill, and many travelers prefer not to do them, so we feature Jaigarh Fort, which sits on the same hill. If you would rather visit Amber Fort, we are happy to swap it in for a little extra cost, and your car can drive right up to the top, so no elephant ride is needed. To see both forts, a little extra cost applies. Just tell us after booking.

  6. 06

    What monuments are visited on this tour?

    The tour covers Jaigarh Fort, Hawa Mahal, City Palace, Jal Mahal, and Jantar Mantar (a UNESCO World Heritage Site). Amber Fort is not part of the standard tour, as it is associated with the elephant rides many travelers prefer to skip, though it can be swapped in for Jaigarh on request for a little extra cost. An Elephant Village visit is available as an optional add-on.
