I’m no expert, but there are a few things that I’ve learned over my course of travelling around the world.

I’ve heard people talk about how they went to a certain destination and boast about their fancy hotels and the expensive food they had. I hardly ever hear them talk about what they saw, the people they met, or the local food they should have eaten.

That’s what you want to get out of a trip. Going to an exotic location to enjoy the hotel and not explore its essence is disrespectful in a lot of ways to the culture and its people.

See, I’m the kind of person who carries out an extensive research program before I travel to my desired location for a vacation. (Oh hey, that rhymes!)

Anyway, I recently took a long break from work and went on an exploring spree of Rajasthan, the land of the Royals and the land of colours, and whatnot. There are so many things that I discovered, one of them being the amount of time required to travel between cities and to really admire the architecture of Rajasthan in itself.

So now, here I am, writing to you a list of tips that I hope you remember when you’re travelling to Rajasthan. When the largest state in India has a bunch of things to offer its people, I think travellers of India should get the best out of it too.

What do you think?

Let’s dive into the actuality of this article!

The Best Time

The travelling season has just begun and shall last until February. Essentially, October is when winter starts to gently set in and cool down the desert that Rajasthan is. It is during this time that the state flaunts its best weather, with temperatures ranging from 120 C to 250 C.

If you’re not a fan of winters or that’s your working season, you could pick the second-best option of travelling during the rains. Monsoons bring life to Rajasthan, the trees and animals rejoice with the small pockets of rain that it receives. If you’re lucky enough, you might get to see some peacocks on your Ranakpur sightseeing trip.

Time Allocations

If you’ve done even the slightest of research, or have been reading this article with the slightest attention, then you’d know that Rajasthan is the largest state in India. Four of its cities are major tourist attractions and there’s a high chance that you run into someone you know from back home.

Anyway, the 4 cities that I mentioned above are:

• Jaipur which is also known as the Pink City
• Jaiselmer awarded the name of Golden City
• Jodhpur or Blue City
• Udaipur termed, not so famously, White City

You want to be spending at least two to three nights in each city if you’re planning to explore it the right way. Spending a ton of money to scan through the attractions in such a beautiful place doesn’t seem worth it.

The road trip kinda people (hi5 to the ones like me!) will need to add in one more day so they can accommodate the time taken to jump between cities by car.

And then! Oh, this is super important! As you travel between these cities, you’ll see that there are various small yet impactful places that you’d want to explore as well. Places like Kumbhalgarh, Nathdwara, Chittorgarh, Ranakpur, Ajmer, Pushkar, Bikaner, etc.

You could plan to stay at some of these places for a day or two as well. I’ve found the entire experience of Ranakpur sightseeing to be wonderful. The place has been etched in my memory.

Travelling Locally

I would want you to take a deep breath before you read forward, because if you’re not used to travelling by any other means except for cars and in luxury, then you could be a tad bit intimidated.

The first and best option is the tuk-tuk. Maybe not the most luxurious, but definitely the most convenient and fun! Tuk-tuks are essentially three-wheeled cycles that area bit slower since they’re peddled and not run as a machine. Only two or three passengers can be accommodated on the seats.

After the tuk-tuk, the next best option is the battery-operated rickshaw or auto-rickshaw. The only difference between the two is that the battery-operated rickshaw is more environment-friendly than your regular auto rickshaw.

In the end, you’re left with local and tourist buses, if you wish to use public transport. Otherwise, you can always book a cab and go around. For any further help, you could check out travel agencies that provide services for the entire trip duration.
