Self-Guided Walking Tour of Jaipur's Old City

jaipur walking tour

Jaipur was awarded UNESCO World Heritage status in July 2019, with its exemplary town planning and architecture being important factors. Many of the top attractions in Jaipur are located in the characterful Old City, which is distinctively painted pink. They're not really spread out, so can easily be reached on foot. Use this guide to go on walking tour of Jaipur's Old City. Allow half a day to explore properly.

If you'd like to get to know the Old City in more detail, Vedic Walks will take you behind the scenes, through its narrow lanes, to some interesting offbeat attractions on their insightful Jaipur heritage walking tours.

Start at M.I. Road

Simon de Trey-White/WireImage/Getty Images

Start: From Panch Batti circle and the old world Raj Mandir cinema, head along M.I. Road, which is the main thoroughfare.

If you have some cash to splash, M.I. Road is where you'll find all the high-end shops including the Gem Palace.

Gem Palace is an attraction itself. Owned by the family of jewelers that once served the royal family, its been in existence for eight generations. The interior has been likened to Aladdin's Cave, which some magnificent pieces on display that belonged to the royal family.

Pink Walls and Gates of the Old City

Continue along M.I. Road, and you'll come across the pink walls of the Jaipur Old City on your left.

There are three gates, spaced about 500 meters apart, which provide entry into the Old City. The first one is Ajmeri Gate, followed by New Gate, and lastly Sanganeri Gate.

Enter from Ajmeri Gate and turn right. From there you can walk all the way along to Sanganeri Gate and the start of Johari Bazaar.

The Old City is extraordinary well laid-out with its wide, straight streets running in a grid that forms a series of bazaars.

Bazaars of the Old City

The first bazaar you'll encounter is Nehru Bazaar. It's situated on the road between Ajmeri Gate and New Gate. A favorite with the women of Jaipur, it's full of shops selling brightly colored fabric, shoes, trinkets, and perfumes.

Bapu Bazaar lies along the road between New Gate and Sanganeri Gate. Many shops sell styles of clothes and bags that foreign tourists like. Keep an eye out for the marvelous, huge banyan tree on the right, with its mass of intertwined branches.

Stroll along and browse through the shops until you reach Sanganeri Gate, the third gate, and Johari Bazaar.

Johari Bazaar lies opposite Sanganeri Gate, on the road that leads north to Badi Chaupar (big square). Turn left into it and walk straight.

If the jewels at the Gem Palace were out of your league, you're likely to find that the offerings here are more suitable. Johari Bazaar and the lanes that run off it are known for gold and silver jewelry, as well as inexpensive costume jewelry and bangles. Gopal Ji Ka Rasta is the famous gem street in Johari Bazaar. However, do be aware that merchants are notorious for selling colored glass as gems there. If you're keen to buy gems, make sure you have a read of this gem guide first.

Jaipur Magic conducts an evening walking tour of the Old City bazaars for those who'd like to spend more time wandering through them.

In Front of the Hawa Mahal

Keep walking straight, and you'll reach Jaipur's most famous landmark, the Hawa Mahal (Wind Palace). This unusual example of Rajput architecture was built in 1799 by Maharaja Sawaj Pratap Singh. It was made so that the ladies of the palace could look out over the street, from the small windows, unobserved. There are 953 of these windows in total, spread over five levels! However, unfortunately, there's not much wind in the Wind Palace these days, as many of the windows have been sealed shut.

There's a rooftop cafe opposite the Hawa Mahal where tourists go to get an unobstructed view of the monument.

Behind the Hawa Mahal

Some people don't realize that it's actually possible to go inside the Hawa Mahal -- you can, and should!

To find the entrance, head back in the direction that you came from, and go right at the intersection. Walk a short distance along the road, then take the first right into the alleyway. There's a big blue sign there that points to the Hawa Mahal.

Entrance to the City Palace

Next stop on the walking tour of Jaipur's Old City is the magnificent City Palace. There are two approaches that you can take to get there: either walk back past the Hawa Mahal and turn left, or keep heading along the road you were on (known as Tripolia Bazaar) and turn right near Tripolia Gate.

If you're feeling tired from walking, you can hail a cycle rickshaw. The distance isn't far, so you shouldn't need to pay more than 20 rupees (bargain hard).

There are various ticket options for the City Palace, depending on how much of it you want to see. Prices start from 200 rupees for Indians and 700 rupees for foreigners. In addition, it's possible to get a special access to the Chandra Mahal (where the royal family lives) with a personal guide. This costs from 1,500 rupees per person for Indians and 2,000 rupees per person for foreigners.

The City Palace blends Rajasthani and Mughal architecture, with the most recently constructed parts of it dating back to the early 20th century. Behind the main courtyard, you'll be able to see the towering seven floor, Chandra Mahal. The flag of the royal family is hoisted when the Maharaja is in residence.

In case you're hungry or thirsty, there's a lovely outdoor cafe at the City Palace.

City Palace Courtyard and Peacock Gate

The most stunning part of the City Palace is without a doubt the ornate Peacock Gate. It's located in a small courtyard known as Pritam Niwas Chowk, accessed via an exit on the far side of the main courtyard of the Jaipur City Palace.

Pritam Niwas Chowk has four colorful painted doorways, each representing a different season. The magnificent Peacock Gate is dedicated to fall/autumn and Lord Vishnu.

Jantar Mantar

As you head out of the City Palace in Jaipur, you may want to stop by Jantar Mantar. This astrological observatory was completed by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, a renowned mathematician and astronomer, in 1738. He constructed five in various cities in India (including Delhi), and this one's the biggest and best preserved.

On first glance, Jantar Mantar actually looks like a strange collection of massive sculptures. However, each of them is actually an astrological instrument with a specific purpose, such as calculating eclipses. The largest instrument is a sundial, which casts a shadow that moves up to four meters an hour.

If you haven't got a Composite Ticket, the entry cost is 200 rupees per person for foreigners and 50 rupees for Indians.

Tripolia Gate and Market

From Jantar Mantar, follow the road out to Tripolia Bazaar. Many of the shopkeepers there specialize in selling kitchen utensils.

Tripolia Bazaar gets its name from Tripolia Gate, with its three archways. This is actually the main entrance to the City Palace and Jantar Mantar. However, only the members of the royal family and their guests are allowed to enter that way.

Nearby is the tallest structure in Jaipur -- Iswari Minar Swarga Sal, the heaven-piercing minaret. It serves as an excellent reference point as to your location. It's possible to climb to the top of the tower and get a bird's-eye view of the Old City.

Spot a Camel

Apart from the usual cows, you might get to see a camel pulling a load along the streets of the Old City of Jaipur. Camels aren't as prevalent as they used to be, but they're still around!

WOW WOW WOW. I cannot overstate how brilliant this tour was. Archit’s passion for conventional traditional Architecture – much like the passion of the engineers and kings who built Rajasthan’s grand structures – makes it a unique experience. In more traditional parlance, it is simply unmissable. More

This evening was one of the best I ever had in India. Archit, Amman and Himmat are great tour guides and bring you to places that you would not know and find by yourself. I recommend this tour highly. Thank you Archit, Amman and Himmat More

Excellent tour led by Archit. As an architect by trade, he was able to reveal hidden gems in the city and give context to its planning. He also gave context to the changing nature of the city and the efforts at restoration and preserving historical attributes of Jaipur. The tour started at about the stated time and ended at the stated time. More

o good! Had a great experience – tour had two guides, super friendly, great communication, punctual and engaging. Good opportunity for soli female travellers to see the ciry at night and feel safe. More

' src=

With great enthusiasm and clear information and insights about life in Jaipur and this region, the guide led me to artisans creating marble statues, wrist bangles, colorful clothing, shoes (I bought a new belt for under $2), crossing busy streets (which requires some courage) — like having a personal guide, guard, and lecturer. More

' src=

We know the lively jaipur through a night tour! I thought it’s simply walk , but exceed my expectations! The tour guide told vivid stories, walked and visited every historical alley, and saw with our own eyes the precious technology and life forms. The city was even more golden colorful at night,We walked through the wedding street, climbed up to the high building with street food, and admired the entire city. more

May 2023 • Couples The tour was a real highlight for me and Archit showed us his personal side of Jaipur. We saw beautiful backyards, temples, ancient crafts, beautifully lit buildings and ate typical Jaipur food in clean places. I see the city with different eyes now and would recommend this tour to anyone coming to Jaipur. More

' src=

Thanks to Archit we had a great time during the tour of old Jaipur. He has an incredible knowledge about the city and the architecture, which he shared with us with great enthusiasm. We were able to marvel at many different crafts and taste some incredibly good food. I could ask Archit anything and he always had a logical answer. More

' src=

We saw Jaipur by night, which we would not have explored together with our four children (aged 7, 10, 11 and 13). Thanks to Umesh we looked down on the busy streets from rooftops and also walked through all the old bazaars. They girls especially loved trying on turbans and wedding dresses. The street food we tasted was so delicious and really filled us up, obviously the kulfi was the biggest hit with the children. Umesh used every opportunity to help us to engage with locals and at the end we even were special guests at a birthday party. More

' src=

We truly enjoyed our tour with Omesh – he is very passionate and personable. We heard great stories and history throughout the tour. I felt so informed about Jaipur’s history and culture. We tasted local foods, went through shopping streets, craftsmen and all the other hidden treasures of Jaipur! Finish with the night time view from the rooftops of the pink buildings. A must do tour when in Jaipur! More

' src=

This tour gives a great insight into the lives & livelihood of the people in Jaipur. We had a great tour with Umesh through the artist’s streets, through the wedding dress shop streets & into little hidden gems throughout the city. We also ate like a local throughout the whole tour, trying different sweet foods & snacks that Jaipur has to offer! More

Jan 2023 I booked onto the 3 hour morning cycle in advance of my trip, but once in India decided I’d get a better feel for the cities I visited through tours (and would feel more comfortable as a solo female), so booked the evening walk on the same day. I had the same guide as in the morning – Umesh – and it was only me on the tour. Umesh knows so much about the city and the culture of India and he loves to tell a story so you get a real insight into the life and history of the country, way beyond what you’d read in a guidebook.

Jan 2023 This tour gave me a peculiar experience of Jaipur (mainly old Jaipur city) and I could meet real heroes behind great sculptures, art and Jaipur tradition. Umesh our guide himself maintained enthusiasm throughout the tour and although we exceeded time, both Umesh and his other partner did great to take care of us. Having local food tasting during the tour was one of the highlights for me among other things. More

Jan 2023 • Solo A fantastic experience to see Jaipur at night. My guide was Umesh Gautam. A fantastic guide who is a local of Jaipur.

We tried so many fantastic, food and dessert. He knows all the places that food is safe and fresh so trust him. you won’t get sick. More

Our guide Umesh took us around Jaipur at night and honestly we saw every corner of the city in the most authentic way! It was incredible. We mixed with the locals, learnt about the culture, history and religion. We tried every street food there was, savoury and sweet. Umesh took us to hidden gems and made us laugh the whole time. More

Nov 2019 Archid took us on a very informative, fun and tasty journey through the markets of Jaipur in the evening. We visited many types of stallholders, and his explanation of the food, traditions and history of the food and city. Excellent tour, one of the best that we have done in India or elsewhere. More

ABOUT JAIPUR & VEDIC WALKS

If in India, don't miss the Pink City Jaipur. It is just the most romantic and magnificent of all cities in India. The colored hues of the city will sweep you from your feet and cast a spell on you. Uniformity, symmetry, beauty and grandeur all packed in one. Jaipur has been ranked by many surveys as the cleanest and pedestrian friendly city of India and this makes it a great city of day tours.

The above is only the known description of Jaipur. What is unknown is what the Jaipur walking tours are all about. A walk that lasts for 2.5 hours in physical sense, but lasts a lifetime in memories. These walking tours are an addition to Jaipur sightseeing. The walk is meant for people from all walks of life. All you need to be is curious and ask questions and be ready for some interesting anecdotes and hyperboles. Jaipur heritage walk is one of the best things to do in Jaipur for short / long haul travellers. 

WALK THE TALK : It is not like a usual Jaipur sightseeing where a guide points at things and the tourists listen to narratives and click funny pictures. It is for you to talk to people, ask question- no matter how irrelevant or stupid the questions are. It is imperative to dig out every piece of information that is of your interest. Definitely one of the things to do in Jaipur apart from Jaipur Sightseeing or other day tours in Jaipur. 

EXPLORE AND KNOW : Walks are slow and subtle. It is for you to explore the place, understand it and finally admire it. Jaipur walking tour has been designed by keeping the virtue of exploration in mind. Your interest may be religion, food, photography, history or culture. It is for you to explore the boundaries of your subject.

MEMORIES : Pink city steals your heart away. It is colorful and bright. It has all the necessary ingredients to lure anyone who likes to know the insights of a place. Still the memories of this place a short-lived. A walking tour will ensure that you will love to ‘Re-live Jaipur’ in your future life. 

GIVE BACK : A lot of travelers come to Jaipur and leave without giving their fair share. We at Vedic Walks, ensure that a percentage of our earnings go to the betterment of the town and keeps it lively as ever. 

Overall, our Jaipur heritage walk is quite different from what you experience during a Jaipur sightseeing tour or any other day tour in Jaipur. Different elements of our Jaipur walking tour makes it a preferred choice for travellers and is indeed one of the best things to do in Jaipur.

Everything About Heritage Walking Tour In Jaipur | The Walled City

H eritage Walking Tour Jaipur in the walled city of Jaipur, a UNESCO World Heritage Site remains a remarkable way to experience the varied heritage of Jaipur. A heritage walk in Jaipur is becoming a preferred choice for the new age explorers. Jaipur walking tour adds a new dimension to experience the heritage of the pink city. The kind of queries, I have received regularly for the Jaipur heritage walk from travelers indicates great interest in the heritage & history of Jaipur. The heritage walking tour in Jaipur is definitely a unique and must-do activity in Jaipur. After having experienced free walking tours, travelers are inclined more towards guided Jaipur walking tours. It is not surprising why this is rising.

Heritage Walking Tour Jaipur | What You Should Know?

I have conducted many Heritage Walking Tours In Jaipur  during the last few year s . Even though many organizations are offering a heritage walk in Jaipur on online portals, most of these are resellers. There are a selected few who provide heritage Jaipur walking tours worth experiencing, especially on the popular heritage Jaipur walk route developed by Jaipur Municipal Corp (JMC) . This is definitely one of the most popular walking routes in Jaipur although there are many other interesting routes.

heritage-walking-tour-in-jaipur-route-map

There is a fascinating aspect associated with this heritage route. It was after Prince Charles had undertaken this walking tour that JMC or JNN decided to develop it as a heritage walking route in Jaipur. To distinguish the Jaipur heritage walking route, cobblestones were laid, and “faux” heritage lamp posts were installed. Regrettably, even though many years have elapsed, the heritage walkway project could not be completed in its entirety.

Why is this Heritage Jaipur Walking Tour Route Popular?

This Heritage Walking Tour Jaipur toute possesses many unique elements like craftsmen, temples, and Havelis , to name a few. One of the temples in the vicinity of the walking tour predates Jaipur City. It is dedicated to Lord Vishnu & contains beautiful frescoes. This temple has many unique aspects. It is privately owned and in dire need of restoration.

sri sitaram mandir jaipur chaura rasta

There are two temple buildings inside this complex. One of them has beautiful wall paintings and frescoes.

sri-sitaram-temple-jaipur-chaura-rasta

A few buildings on the route prompt you of the architecture from the 1930s to the 1950s. This was the time when architecture in India was hugely inspired by the Art Deco style. In India, Mumbai represents a classic example of how this architecture shaped the facade of buildings. Rounded corners, Streamline Moderne style, linear appearance, setbacks, and geometric ornamentation are its key features. During the in-person Jaipur Heritage Walk, the development of the architectural styles preceding and succeeding Art-Deco architecture in Jaipur can be explained; this is out of bounds to detail it here in this blog.

jaipur heritage walk

Art is one of the distinguishing features of Jaipur. The city is synonymous with art. Is it not impressive to witness craftsmen in action? While Moradabad’s brass work is famous the world over, Jaipur has carved out its own niche.

jaipur-craft-thathera-metal-craftsmen-jaipur-market

The brass work one finds in the city caters to a niche segment. The sound of beating the hammer is loud and clear in these lanes.

thathera-in-thatheron-ka-rasta-jaipur-heritage-walk

A craftsman busy working in the by-lanes of the walled city ; photo clicked during a heritage walk Jaipur. Woefully, this art is suffering a slow death due to many reasons. These artists are certain that there won’t be many torchbearers to take it ahead.

thathea-thatheron-ka-rasta-heritage-walk-jaipur

As we move ahead, there is a variety of Havelis to witness & capture.

heritage-walk-in-jaipur-old-building

Some of these old heritage Haveli structures probably will be razed down to make new commercial buildings. This is certainly not a desirable activity; unfortunately, this is a reality one experiences in this heritage walking tour in Jaipur.

jaipur-heritage-haveli-destruction-parkota-unesco-walled-city

A lot of Haveli facades have undergone massive changes over the last few years. The Haveli in the below picture looks strikingly different today after having undergone restoration ever since I first started undertaking the heritage Jaipur walking tour.

haveli-architecture-of-rajasthan-jaipur

For an inquisitive mind, there are so many interesting structures in the by-lanes of the walled city of Jaipur. If you love these Havelis or mansions, check out this post The Vanishing Havelis of Jaipur

heritage-walking-tour-in-jaipur-market-walk

The rulers of Jaipur were patrons of arts and crafts. One of the Jaipur rulers, Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II invited scores of artists from across the length and breadth of the country to settle in Jaipur; his descendant took it even further. This art and craft school in Jaipur is a perfect example. The building has an imposing facade. The fusion of architectural styles is evident in its facade.

jaipur-heritage-walk-in-old-city

The beautiful facade of Maharajah School of Arts & Craft, Kishanpole Bazar, Jaipur.

If plans go through, the building will be converted into a museum, very soon. Update 2018- Maharajah School of Arts and Crafts has been converted into a museum called – the Museum of Legacies.  

Update 2022- The museum has been closed by the Ashok Gehlot -led Congress government; as per the customs, projects started by the previous governments always come to a stall when the opposing parties are in power.

Some end the heritage Jaipur walking tour here. The Heritage Walk Jaipur continues the “prescribed” heritage walking tour route map in Jaipur.

This Haveli formerly owned by the merchant family has an imposing facade. It is unlikely people won’t notice this Haveli.

natani-ki-haveli-jaipur

Here is a picture of a victory tower in Jaipur.

heritage-walk-in-jaipur-tripoliya-bazar-swargah-suli

Essentially, a minaret or a victory tower possesses numerous versions as to why it was constructed. Only one is true, but the rest are rumors. It is intriguing how these rumors get strong over the years as they get passed down from one generation to another. The building is known by various names- Issar Laat/ Ishwar Laat/ Sarga Suli. This is one of the few tourist attractions you can witness on the route of a Heritage Walking Tour Jaipur.

Very few rulers of Jaipur provided a considerable impetus for developing scientific & modern thinking as well as the advancement of education. For this very reason, Maharaja Sawai Ram Singh II shines on the list. Here is a library named after this ruler.

rajasthani-architecture-government-public-library-chaura-rasta-jaipur

A public library in the heart of the city has undergone restoration over the years. Over here are the pictures of Araiash . These are not in their original state, but rather a shoddy restoration job and lack the finesse associated with the workmanship.

heritage walk in jaipur

As the heritage walking tour in Jaipur Walled City comes to an end, one can’t help but notice this gate at the tri-junction called Tripolia Gate .

heritage-walk-in-jaipur-square-by-foot

The Jaipur Heritage Walk represents a remarkable way to explore the history and heritage of the city; one walk is not enough.  In my opinion, this walk is just a starting point as other routes are even more interesting and offer a lot more things to witness and explore in Jaipur.

Heritage Walking Tours In Jaipur | Frequently Asked Questions

Here are a few frequently asked questions on heritage walks in Jaipur.

What Is Jaipur Heritage Walk?

Tourist attractions like Amer Fort , Nahargarh Fort , Hawa Mahal , etc. are invariably a must-do and they offer a peek into the past. A heritage walking tour in Jaipur is a good idea; it will enrich your travel experience as it provides you with a more thorough understanding of the city’s culture and history. A Jaipur heritage walk is highly recommended for explorers and travelers. It is vital to undertake the walking tour with a competent person who can provide you with reliable information. Explore Jaipur Retold Walking Tour

How Much do the heritage walking tours in Jaipur cost?

Typically, the heritage walking tours in Jaipur can range from Rs 1000 onward up to Rs 3000 per person. The prices vary depending on the route, depth of the walk, and experience of the leader. Expect to pay at least Rs 1500-2000 for good quality heritage walking tours in Jaipur. Anything less, the quality of the walk might be questionable. It is not uncommon to find Jaipur walking tours listed on online portals at attractively low prices, however, many of them fail in the content and curation. Often, such heritage walking tours in Jaipur listed on the popular travel websites involve commissions for listing and for the low-priced walks, you never know what’s in the store. Due to the lack of regulations, anyone can lead a Jaipur walking tour irrespective of his knowledge, background, or experience. Like most popular tourist destinations, tourist scams in Jaipur are a reality. Often, low-cost heritage walking tours in Jaipur will include stops at shops disguised as factories or workshops where gullible travelers are tricked into buying overpriced products. Such Jaipur walking tours are merely another funnel to trick travelers for kickbacks & commissions. Travelers often end up losing time & experience. In some walking tours, the shopping is evident and clear; in others, shopping is disguised. Some well-known companies providing heritage walking tours in Jaipur have been accused of such practices on review portals & forums. For large groups, it is possible to get group pricing for the walking tour.

How long does it take for the heritage Jaipur walking tour?

It routinely takes around one and a half hours to two hours for most Jaipur walking tours. The duration of some walking tours in Jaipur can extend up to three to four hours, well-known internationally as half-day tours. It altogether depends on the route and curiosity level of the explorer; the pink city offers so much and hence extended walking tours in Jaipur are an excellent starting point for explorers.

How to do a Jaipur heritage walk?

On how to do the Jaipur Heritage Walk, here are two suggestions. Both these walking tour alternatives take a different approach. One is a self-guided walking tour and the other is a guided heritage walk.

Free walking Tour in Jaipur | Self-Guided

If you are seeking a free walking tour in Jaipur and don’t want context or information read the write-up on this blog – How to do an amazing self-guided walking tour in Jaipur. This walking route in Jaipur can be undertaken at your own pace. This free walking tour in Jaipur requires no assistance.

Walking Tour Jaipur Guided

To undertake a guided heritage walking tour in Jaipur & in-depth information, you can reach out to @arv_jpr or Jaipur Walking Tour . Jaipur city walking tours are a defacto choice as they allow detailed information on history, heritage, and interaction.

Free Walking Tour In Jaipur vs Guided Heritage Walk Jaipur

Do note both these options of a guided heritage walking tour in Jaipur and a free self-guided walking tour in Jaipur are not comparable. The guided heritage walking tour in Jaipur with a local is much more in-depth and is an interactive experience. Free Jaipur Walking Tour is best suited for photographers who love exploring at their own pace. Self-guided walking tour in Jaipur tends to be popular among those seeking to explore on their own.

Jaipur Hotel Packages with Heritage Walk

Finding Jaipur hotel packages with heritage walks is becoming common. Nothing wrong. However, the quality of such Jaipur walks is often something to ponder about. As long as something is “sold” as a product, quality always takes a backseat. Why do I say this? A free Heritage Walking Tour in Jaipur is often used as a means to justify the hotel room tariff or package. While a lot of people might find this a good deal, often, the person leading the heritage walk is unbefitting for the work assigned; either because of lack of proficiency in the subject as well as deficiency of mannerisms or soft skills. Many guides accept conducting the low-paid heritage walk in Jaipur because they use it as an opportunity to sell something else or to earn kickbacks. This is often the reason why such a walking tour in Jaipur often includes a visit to shops, factories, godowns, or strong recommendations. If you are offered Jaipur hotel packages with heritage walks, I suggest you delve deeper. Insist on connecting with the person conducting the walking tour to understand what is on offer. Assess the competency of the person conducting the walking tour. If you are convinced, go ahead.

Walking Tour in Jaipur | My Recommendations

For first-time visitors to Jaipur, I highly recommend a guided heritage walking tour in Jaipur. Jaipur Heritage Walk offers great value in terms of the experience. While the heritage walking route in Jaipur is more popular, I have been focussing on other walking routes in Jaipur.

Free walking tours or self-guided walking tours in Jaipur are best for regular visitors to Jaipur or photographers who love spending time at their own pace.

If you are an overseas traveler, I recommend a guided walking tour in Jaipur as it allows you access to places that you wouldn’t know; a very small price to pay in comparison to the experience. A guided walking tour with a local in Jaipur offers many possibilities.

Hidden Places in Jaipur Walking Tour

In my opinion, A walking tour in Jaipur can be a great way to explore hidden places in Jaipur. The walking tour usually doesn’t include popular or routine places. A good walk leader will definitely include offbeat and unique places in his tour. However, this is not true for all walking tour companies or operators. With a little research, it is possible to find a good walking tour in Jaipur and thereby uncover hidden places in Jaipur.

I hope this blog on heritage walking tours in Jaipur has piqued your interest in undertaking one.
