About This Tour Package
A Rajasthan tour package from Pune is the kind of journey people remember for years: lake palaces in Udaipur, blue lanes in Jodhpur, golden sandstone in Jaisalmer and pink walls in Jaipur. It is also a big trip, since the state begins roughly 700 to 800 km north of Pune and its main cities are far apart from each other. Cab Service Pune designs it as a customised road circuit, with a clean AC vehicle and an experienced driver for the route you select.
Why Rajasthan Works as a Road Trip
Distances between Rajasthan cities are long, and public transport rarely matches your pace. A private vehicle lets you stop at roadside forts, desert viewpoints and temples that are never part of a fixed bus tour. It also keeps the family together, handles luggage easily and lets you change plans when the weather or mood changes. For this reason many travellers prefer to use one vehicle and one driver through the whole circuit.
A Sensible Route and Timeline
A common circuit goes from Pune north via Gujarat to Udaipur, then Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, and back through Pushkar and Jaipur before heading south. Doing all five properly needs 9 to 10 days. With eight days, drop one city, often Jaisalmer, which is the farthest. Driving days in Rajasthan can be five to seven hours between cities, plus the long journey from and back to Pune. The sequence can also be reversed or shortened, and we plan it with you.
City by City Highlights
Udaipur is known for Lake Pichola, the City Palace complex and old-town lanes, and works well for a relaxed first stop. Jodhpur's Mehrangarh Fort looks over the blue-painted old city, and the Umaid Bhawan side is another sight. Jaisalmer has a living fort, havelis and the Thar desert dunes at Sam, where many travellers plan a sunset camel ride. Pushkar is a small holy town around its lake and the rare Brahma temple. Jaipur brings Amer Fort, the City Palace, Hawa Mahal and busy bazaars. Opening days and ticket rules can change, so check timings before each visit.
Best Time to Travel
October to March is the season most visitors choose, with pleasant days and cool nights. December and January mornings can be quite cold, especially in the desert. Summer is extremely hot and not ideal for sightseeing on foot. During monsoon, parts of the state turn green but travel plans can be disturbed. If you wish to catch Pushkar's famous fair or festival season, plan well in advance as hotels fill early.
Vehicle Choice for Long Distance
For a couple or a small family, a Swift Dzire is comfortable and efficient. Ertiga and Innova Crysta are favourites for families with luggage and elders, giving more space for the long drive. Scorpio suits those who prefer a sturdier vehicle. Groups of 10 to 17 can choose a Tempo Traveller or Force Urbania, and big gatherings can discuss a 20 to 45 seater bus. All vehicles are clean and air-conditioned, which makes a real difference in the Rajasthan heat.
Stays, Food and Local Experiences
Rajasthan offers everything from simple guesthouses to heritage havelis. We can coordinate hotel assistance on request, and you should confirm this when you book. Vegetarian thalis, dal baati churma, ghewar and local sweets are part of the experience, so be adventurous with local food but choose clean, busy places. Many travellers also add a folk evening, a stepwell visit or a short desert camp, which are best arranged ahead of the dates.
Shorter Variations if You Have Less Time
Not everyone can spare ten days. A compact plan of seven or eight days can cover Udaipur, Jodhpur and Jaipur, skipping the long desert leg. Another option is Udaipur and Pushkar with Jaipur, which keeps driving days shorter. If you have already seen the main cities, we can build a plan around Mount Abu, Chittorgarh or Bundi. Tell Cab Service Pune what matters to you, whether it is forts, food, photography or relaxation, and we will shape the days accordingly.
Heritage, Handicrafts and Shopping
Rajasthan is also a shopping state. Jaipur is known for block-printed textiles and jewellery, Jodhpur for furniture and antiques, and Pushkar and Jaisalmer for leather goods and embroidered pieces. Bargain politely, compare a few shops before buying, and keep receipts for larger items. Leave a little room in the vehicle for gifts, and let your driver know if you plan a long shopping stop so the day can be paced properly.
Tips for the Journey
- Start early on long driving days and aim to check in before dark.
- Carry a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen and a light scarf for dust and sun.
- Dress modestly at temples and palaces that are also places of worship.
- Keep small cash for parking, tea stops and local guides.
- Book popular hotels in Udaipur and Jaisalmer early during winter.
Keep one day free as a buffer, because desert highways can have slow stretches and weather can change.
Safety and Comfort
Our drivers at Cab Service Pune are experienced on highways and used to long hours behind the wheel. We prefer regular breaks and sensible halts rather than late-night driving. Check current advisories for any area you plan to enter, and carry valid photo ID. For desert activities, use only well-known operators, keep water with you and follow instructions given by the guides.
How Fares and Booking Work
The fare is shared with you before the trip starts and depends on route, days and vehicle. Toll, parking and state tax or entry charges are normally charged at actuals unless an all-inclusive package is quoted. Because no two Rajasthan itineraries are alike, we quote at the time of booking. Send us your dates, group size, cities of interest and the pick-up point through WhatsApp, phone or the enquiry form, and we will propose a day-wise plan.
