Day 1: Pickup from Delhi & Drive to Jaipur – Exploring Royal Jaipur
Early Morning Pickup from Delhi
The journey began with a comfortable pickup from my hotel in Delhi early in the morning. Our private, air-conditioned car was clean and spacious, making the 5–6 hour drive very pleasant. The highway journey was smooth, and we reached Jaipur by late morning.
Visit City Palace – Heart of Jaipur Royalty
Our first stop was the City Palace, located in the center of the old city. Walking through the palace complex felt like stepping into Jaipur’s royal past. The beautiful courtyards, royal costumes, weapons gallery, and museum offered a deep insight into the life of the Maharajas of Jaipur.
Traveler Tip: Don’t miss the colorful Peacock Gate – it’s one of the most photographed spots inside the palace.
Hawa Mahal – The Icon of Jaipur
Next, we visited the famous Hawa Mahal (Palace of Winds). Its unique honeycomb structure with hundreds of small windows is truly fascinating. Our guide explained how royal women used these windows to observe daily life and festivals without being seen.
Jantar Mantar – A UNESCO World Heritage Site
Just a short walk away is Jantar Mantar, the historic astronomical observatory. Seeing giant stone instruments used to measure time and celestial movements was surprisingly interesting. The guide’s explanation made this visit even more engaging.
Evening in Jaipur Local Markets
In the evening, we explored the lively local markets of Jaipur, such as Johari Bazaar and Bapu Bazaar. From colorful textiles and handicrafts to traditional jewelry and souvenirs, shopping here was a delightful experience.
Traveler Experience: The markets are vibrant but not overwhelming, and bargaining is part of the fun.
Overnight Stay in Jaipur
After a full day of sightseeing, we checked into our hotel for an overnight stay in Jaipur. The comfortable hotel and delicious Rajasthani dinner were the perfect end to Day 1.
Day 2: Amer Fort, Jal Mahal & Return to Delhi
Explore Amer Fort – The Pride of Rajasthan
After breakfast, we headed to the magnificent Amer Fort, located on a hilltop just outside Jaipur. This fort is truly breathtaking, with its grand courtyards, Sheesh Mahal (Mirror Palace), and stunning views of the surrounding hills.
Walking through Amer Fort felt like reliving stories of Rajput bravery and royal grandeur.
Jal Mahal – The Water Palace (Photo Stop)
On the way back, we stopped at Jal Mahal, the beautiful palace floating in the middle of Man Sagar Lake. Although entry is not allowed inside, the view from the lakeside is perfect for photography.
Drive Back to Delhi & Drop-Off
After completing the sightseeing, we started our return journey to Delhi. The drive back was relaxed, and we were dropped safely at our Delhi hotel or airport, marking the end of a wonderful overnight Jaipur tour.
