Forts, dunes, and old bazaars — a route built around light, heat, and the hours in between. Seven days, moderate pace.
Settle into the Pink City and spend the evening in the old bazaars near Hawa Mahal.
Morning at Amber Fort, afternoon free for City Palace and the Jantar Mantar observatory.
Drive to the Blue City, checking into a haveli stay overlooking the old town.
A full day exploring the fort and the winding blue lanes below it.
Continue west into the Thar Desert, arriving at the golden sandstone fort city by evening.
Morning at the living fort and havelis, then a jeep transfer to the dunes for a desert camp overnight.
Sunrise over the dunes, then transfer to Jaisalmer airport or onward by road.
Want to add Udaipur, or trade the desert camp for an extra night in a fort hotel? This route bends easily.
