10 days in Jaipur & Jodhpur Itinerary

Known as the "Pink City" because of the color of the stone used for many of its notable structures, Jaipur draws visitors with its chaotic street life and a slew of colorful bazaars selling everything from handmade pottery to tie-dye scarves.

Get some cultural insight at Amber Palace and Birla Mandir Temple. Spend the 15th (Fri) wandering through the wild on a nature and wildlife tour. There's still lots to do: make a trip to City Palace of Jaipur, examine the collection at Albert Hall Museum, admire the landmark architecture of Sheesh Mahal (Hall of Mirrors), and contemplate the long history of Jaigarh Fort.

If you are flying in from United Kingdom, the closest major airport is Jaipur International Airport. March in Jaipur sees daily highs of 37°C and lows of 20°C at night. Cap off your sightseeing on the 17th (Sun) early enough to travel to Jodhpur.

The blue-walled buildings in the old quarter of Jodhpur have a calming, quaint aesthetic when viewed from up high, but down on the streets the city bustles with a lively atmosphere that belies its toy-town color.

On the 18th (Mon), contemplate the long history of Jaswant Thada, contemplate the long history of Phool Mahal, then steep yourself in history at Mehrangarh Fort, and finally head outdoors with Outdoor Activities. On your second day here, stop by Mohanlal Verhomal Spices (MV SPICES), explore the galleries of Umaid Heritage Art School, make a trip to Ghanta Ghar, then explore the ancient world of Toorji Ka Jhalra (Toorji’s Step Well), and finally tour the pleasant surroundings at Rao Jodha Desert Rock Park.
