Jaipur Tour Packages | Jaipur Rajasthan Tour

Jaipur is one of the most popular destinations on a tourist's itinerary. The magnificent forts, beautiful havelis and colourful bazaars make Jaipur a popular tourist destination among tourists.

It's proximity to Agra, the City of Taj, further adds to its appeal. Jaipur is part of the famous Golden Triangle Tourist circuit that includes Delhi and Agra.

But Jaipur is not only endowed with wonderful tourist attractions but the city also has an excellent infrastructure to support the tourism.

Jaipur has some of the India's best hotels, which compliments the scenic and architecture beauty of the Pink City.

The City Palace Museum houses an exquisite collection of textiles, costumes, carpets, the finest porcelain and a rare collection of arms and paintings. It is here that you can see the world’s largest silver objects - a pair of giant urns.

Hawa Mahal or the ‘Palace of Winds’ is one of the most unusual structures built by Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh.

Honeycombed with over 900 niches or windows, it allowed the ladies of the court to watch the activities on the streets below and yet not be seen themselves!

The Hawa Mahal too is made of the famed Jaipur pink stone!.

Jantar Mantar is one of the five observatories built by Sawai Jai Singh whose ruling passion was astronomy.

It was built between 1728-34 and consists of observer’s seat, sundial and a number of enormous instruments used to calculate altitude, locate and identify celestial bodies. These instruments are extremely accurate.

Two forbidding forts, Nahargarh and Jaigarh, tower above Jaipur and the old capital, Amer, in the north. Nahargarh Fort (or Tiger Fort) is 2 km from Jaipur was once a royal retreat for the Maharanis (queens) and was also used as a personal treasury.

Legend has it that a huge treasure of gold bullion, jewels and gemstones is stashed away within its wall. Access to the fort is via a steep winding path.

Once up in the fort premises, visitors can enjoy an excellent view of the city and sip a cup of tea/coffee at the RTDC caféteria.

Gaitor, the cremation ground of the rulers of Jaipur, nestling at the foot of the Nahargarh hills, has several ornate cenotaphs - Maharani ki Chattri, adorned by memorials to the royal ladies whose last rites were performed there.

The imposing Jaigarh, or the Fort of Victory, built by Sawai Jai Singh in 1726 stands sentinel over Amber.

It housed the royal treasury for many years. The piece-de-resistance here is Jai Vana, believed to be the world’s largest cannon on wheels (barrel length 6m or 20 ft).

If you want to add zing to your tour to Jaipur, coincide your visit to Jaipur during festivals.

The city looks vibrant and colorful during fairs and festivals. Some of the festivals celebrated in Jaipur include Elephant Festival (March), Gangur (March-April) and Teej (July-August).
