If you are planning a holiday tour in India, Rajasthan easily emerges among the shortlisted destinations, and for good reason. Known for holding the royal heritage in its forts and palaces, the state is more than just a collection of landmarks. A Rajasthan tour feels like stepping into a living museum where history, culture, food and tradition come alive with every step you take.

From exploring Jaipur’s pink-hued charm to wandering through the golden dunes of Jaisalmer – every moment of the Rajasthan tour package is worth it.

Why You Should Choose a Rajasthan Tour Package?

Rajasthan is not just a destination but a royal gateway to a plethora of rich experiences. Its palaces and forts whisper tales of bravery and grandeur. Sight of folk dances, colorful fairs and traditional handicraft make Rajasthan a cultural paradise.

Whether you’re looking for a Rajasthan family tour package, a backpacking trip or a well-crafted Rajasthan travel itinerary, this vibrant state will leave you awestruck.

For couples, Rajasthan is pure romance — palace dinners, lake sunsets and golden dunes under the starlit skies. If you happen to be a foodie, Rajasthan’s culinary delights like Dal Baati Churma and Laal Maas are a perfect feast to end a thrilling (and tiring) day of tour.

If you are travelling for the first-time, with its many gems, Rajasthan can be a tough state to crack. We suggest opting for a Rajasthan tour package. Instead of juggling hotels, transport and sightseeing on your own, a package ensures you get a seamless experience. Luxury heritage stays, guided fort visits or authentic cultural evenings and local fairs – you name it and Musafir Baba’s Rajasthan travel package will have it.

Best Places to Visit in Rajasthan

Rajasthan has so much to offer, it can confuse even a pro traveller. To take some of your travel load, we have compiled a list of top places to visit in Rajasthan.

1.   The Pink City of Jaipur

Home to Amber Fort, Hawa Mahal and vibrant bazaars, Jaipur is rightly the capital of this magnificent state. It is also a good place to begin your Rajasthan tour as it offers seamless connectivity with both Delhi and Agra.

2.   The City of Lakes: Udaipur

After you have seen the palaces in Jaipur, it is time for Udaipur lakes. Known for its romantic lakes and the City Palace, Udaipur is almost like a fairy tale landscape. But, what’s less heard of is the boat ride on Lake Pichola.

3.   The Blue City of Jodhpur

Jodhpur is fondly called the Blue City for its blue-painted houses. It features the majestic Mehrangarh Fort, Umaid Bhawan Palace and the bustling Sardar Market. Its local markets also offer the spicy Mirchi Bada, which is simply amazing.

4.   The Golden City of Jaisalmer

Located in the heart of the Thar Desert in Rajasthan, Jaisalmer attracts over 5 lakh tourists every year. You must have seen its deserts of Jaisalmer in music videos, but trust us, it looks even more beautiful in real. A desert safari here is something you will remember for years to come. Its famous Jaisalmer Fort is also a UNESCO World Heritage site.

5.   Take blessings in Pushkar

Famous for its holy lake and annual camel fair, Pushkar is a beautiful blend of spiritual and cultural energy. Owing to the Brahmaji Templer here, the Rajasthan town of Pushkar attracts a number of pilgrims. It is also recommended for visitors who love festivals and vibrant markets.

6.   Mount Abu – The Hill Station Surprise

Last but not the least, keep a day for the Rajasthan’s lone hill station. Mount Abu offers cool weather, marble-carved Dilwara Temples and sunset points that will take your breath away.

These are our top picks for best places to visit in the state. Your Rajasthan travel itinerary will invariably depend on the number of days you have and your approach – do you want to cover all the places or limit your itinerary and soak in the few places well. The above list is based on our rough Rajasthan tour plan for 7 days.

Additionally, a good Rajasthan family tour package will include comfortable stays in heritage hotels, cultural shows, camel rides and child-friendly itineraries.

Meanwhile, backpacking trips are perfect for travelers who are on a tight budget or want to explore beyond the mainstream itinerary. For them, we try to include Pushkar, Jaisalmer hostels and village homestays for a memorable experience beyond the pictures.  

What is the Best Time to Visit Rajasthan?

This is another question about Rajasthan that we frequently get. The best time to visit Rajasthan is between October and March, when the weather is pleasant for sightseeing and desert safaris too. Besides, follow the below tips for an amazing Rajasthan holiday:

1. Book Early

We can't state this enough -- Book all your hotels and travel tickets, especially if you are travelling during the peak tourist season.

2. Stay in a Haveli or Heritage Hotel

 The heritage hotels of Jaipur offer you a unique opportunity to experience the royal charm of Rajasthan up close. Those hand-painted walls and large courtyards will literally teleport you to the era of Maharajas.

3. Pack Smart

 Sun in Rajasthan can feel especially harsh to people who come from colder climates. So, a good sunscreen and light cotton clothes go without saying. You should also pack at least a pair of comfortable walking shoes. The ‘Swachh Bharat Abhiyan’ has already changed everything. But, to be on the safer side, carry your own toiletries if you are travelling to rural areas.

4. Respect Traditions

 We assure you that people of Rajasthan will give you a warm welcome, wherever you go. But, as a responsible tourist, you must respect their tradition and culture at the same time. Always ask before photographing locals and dress modestly at temples.

You should be fine if you keep these few things in mind. Whether you’re planning a family getaway, a solo backpacking trip or even a short Rajasthan tour plan for 7 days, this state will welcome you with open arms and royal grace.

What are you waiting for? Book your Rajasthan travel package and let your next holiday shine with the royal shades of Rajasthan.
