About Jaipur

Jaipur is Rajasthan’s capital and the third stop on the Golden Triangle. Amber Fort, reached by jeep up a hillside, is the highlight; the Hawa Mahal and City Palace in the old walled city show the same pink sandstone that gives Jaipur its nickname. The bazaars here are known for textiles, gemstones and jootis (traditional leather shoes).

Best time to visit
October to March.
Getting around
Typically the third stop on a Golden Triangle route, 5-6 hours by car from Agra.

What our travellers say

All reviews
“They met us at the airport at 1am, took us to the hotel, and from then on we didn't think about a single arrangement for nine days. Worth every dollar.”
Sarah M. – 🇺🇸 Boston, USA
“Our flight to Jaipur was cancelled. Their coordinator had a car and a new hotel sorted before we'd even left the terminal. That's what you're paying for.”
James W. – 🇬🇧 London, UK
“Travelling with two kids in India sounded impossible. They planned it so well that it was the easiest family holiday we've had.”
Claire L. – 🇨🇦 Toronto, Canada
