Jaipur — The Pink City
Start with the Amber Fort at sunrise to beat the crowds, then wander the City Palace and the astronomical instruments of Jantar Mantar.
For a quieter moment, head to Nahargarh Fort at dusk for a sweeping view over the pink-hued city.
Udaipur — City Of Lakes
Udaipur is Rajasthan's most romantic city. A boat ride on Lake Pichola at golden hour, with the City Palace glowing behind you, is hard to beat.
Explore the stepwells and rooftop cafes of the old town for a slower, local pace.
Quick Tips
- Catch the sunset from a Lake Pichola boat, not from shore.
Jaisalmer — The Golden Desert
The living fort of Jaisalmer still has families residing within its honey-coloured walls. Spend a night at a desert camp in the Sam dunes for camel rides and folk music under the stars.
