How to Trip for Rajasthan

Rajasthan offers rich culture and traditions. Here is presented Rajasthan Travel Guide to make your journey to the place unforgettable.

• The first thing to be known with Rajasthan Travel Guide is deciding the dates for arrival to the place and booking a flight for you accordingly. There is no hard and fast rule that which route should be chosen in Rajasthan but we suggest you to begin your journey in southern Rajasthan. You can always start travelling from Udaipur and then can move to places situated in the north in anti-clockwise direction. The first thing to be done when planning a visit to Rajasthan is booking a driver for you. Generally, travelers move from one city to other and booking a driver is the best way for it. It is true that trains and cabs are also available but they make the journey stressful. An added advantage of hiring a driver is he would be your guide as well throughout the journey.

The city of Udaipur is known as “Jewel of Mewar” and you can begin your journey with a visit to City Palace and Jagdish Temple. You can even enjoy a boat ride at Lake Pichola.
