Your journey begins with your arrival in Udaipur, one of the most romantic cities in India. Our driver will pick you up from the airport or railway station and take you to your hotel. After checking in, unwind for a bit and relish the serene environment. In the evening, take a boat ride on Lake Pichola, where one can witness the reflected glow of City Palace and Jag Mandir.
The tranquil water and the Aravalli hills surrounding it form an enchanting view, particularly during sunset. Subsequently, have a visit to Bagore Ki Haveli, where you can have the opportunity to watch a Rajasthani folk dance and puppet show. Retire to your hotel for an overnight stay in Udaipur.
Following breakfast, start your full-day excursion to Udaipur. Proceed with a visit to the City Palace, an enormous complex that stands beautifully on the shores of Lake Pichola. The palace features a fusion of Rajasthani and Mughal architecture and boasts marvelous views of the lake and city from its balconies. Then proceed to the Jagdish Temple, situated adjacent to the palace, famous for the Indo-Aryan style of buildings.
Proceed to Saheliyon Ki Bari, a picturesque garden with fountains and marble pavilions constructed for royal maidens. Later, pay a visit to the Vintage Car Museum, where rare antique cars previously owned by Maharajas are put on show. Relax in the evening, roaming around local bazaars for handicrafts, miniature paintings, and silver ornaments. Overnight at your hotel in Udaipur.
In the morning, check out of your hotel and start your road trip to Jodhpur, popularly called the Blue City. The five-hour drive brings you to your hotel on arrival, where you will check-in. After a little rest, venture out and visit the key sights. Start with the imposing Mehrangarh Fort, one of India's largest forts, situated atop a hill with a bird's-eye view of the city.
Within the fort, visit its several palaces, galleries, and courtyards that feature royal weapons, clothes, and paintings. Then proceed to Jaswant Thada, which is a lovely white marble cenotaph constructed in honor of Maharaja Jaswant Singh II. At night, walk around the nearby markets near the Clock Tower, famous for spices, bandhani clothes, and traditional shoes. Overnight stay at your hotel in Jodhpur.
Have breakfast early in the morning and check out from the hotel. Your destination for the day is Jaisalmer, the Golden City of Rajasthan. During the journey, you can visit Ramdevra Temple, a holy place frequented by individuals of all faiths. Drive on from there through the endless desert terrain, observing the hue of sand shift as daylight changes. Arrive in Jaisalmer by afternoon and check into your hotel.
Evening is free to visit Gadisar Lake, a peaceful place adorned with temples and ghats, presenting lovely sunset views. Unwind for the remaining evening or stroll around the city's old streets. Overnight stay at Jaisalmer.
Post-breakfast, set out for the city tour of Jaisalmer, with the famous Sonar Quila, or Jaisalmer Fort, the first to visit, which surfaces from the golden dunes like a mirage. Uniquely, unlike any other fort, this fort still has shops, houses, and temples, and thus it's considered a living heritage site. Within the fort, visit the Jain Temples, constructed with minute carvings, and stroll through the residential streets. Later, go to the well-known Patwon Ki Haveli, Salim Singh Ki Haveli, and Nathmal Ki Haveli, each with fine Rajasthani architecture complete with intricately carved balconies and walls.
In the afternoon, proceed to the Sam Sand Dunes, roughly 40 km from here. Take a camel safari across the undulating dunes as the sun sets, tingeing the sands golden. In the evening, go for a cultural show with Rajasthani music and dance, and then have traditional dinner. Overnight at your desert camp or hotel.
On your last day, have breakfast and depart from the hotel or camp. If you have time for your departure schedule, do visit the local markets of Jaisalmer for souvenirs like embroidered cloths, jootis, and wooden carved products. Our driver will escort you to Jaisalmer railway station or airport with fond memories of this grand tour of the royal cities of Rajasthan.
