16 days in Delhi, Agra and Rajasthan

For anyone interested in planning a Rajasthan trip in India, here’s how I did mine:

Days 1-3: Delhi
Days 4-5: Agra
Day 6: Sawai Madhopur (Ranthambhore National Park)
Day 7: Transit day to Udaipur
Days 8-10: Udaipur
Days 11-13: Jaisalmer
Day 14: Jodhpur
Days 15-16: Jaipur

(Note: I could have EASILY dropped a day each from Delhi and Agra, had my planning been better.)

Highlights:
  • Marveling at the Taj Mahal.
  • Going on a camel safari in Jaisalmer.
  • Flying around Mehrangarh Fort in Jodhpur on ziplines.
  • Relaxing in lovely Udaipur.
Lowlights:
  • Getting sexually harassed in Agra by two little boys (more on that later).
  • Leaving my Rough Guide behind in an overpriced coffee shop in Jodhpur.
  • Arriving in Jodhpur at 4 am with no plan as to what to do until Mehrangarh Fort opened at 9 am.
  • Arriving in Jaipur at 2:30 am with no hotel booked.
  • Arriving back in Delhi at 1:15 am with no hotel booked (you’ll notice a pattern here).
