Kanpur - Jaipur - Bikaner - Jaisalmer & back

Hello,

I am planning a trip with Family around New Year - The Route will be -

Day01 - Kanpur - Agra - Jaipur - Stay at Jaipur
Day02 - Jaipur Stay Continued
Day03 - Jaipur - Bikaner - Jaisalmer - Stay at Jaisalmer
Day04 - Stay at Jaisalmer
Day05 - Off to Sam Dunes for one night stay
Day06 - Return Journey from Sam Dunes starts at around 11 am - Jaisalmer City - Bikaner - Stay at Bikaner
Day07 - Start early - Bikaner to Kanpur - One stretch

We would like to have a sweet experience of staying in Haveli's this time. In Jaipur I have chosen Alsisar Haveli, in Jaisalmer I have chosen Mandir Palace, in Bikaner I have chosen some highway resort as we would be staying practically for night only. My 31st Night would be at Mandir Palace, Jaisalmer.

I would be grateful if I can get some suggestions / feedbacks on stay, route, road conditions and all.

Thanks & regards

Devrishi

Not going to Bikaner? Also a good place. The drive from Jaipur to Jaislamer via Bikaner will be a long one.

Why do you want to return the same route? Why not return via Jodhpur, gives you a different experience.

Road conditions are generally good to very good, although currently there are some bad stretches between Jaisalmer & Jodpur and Beawar and Ajmer.

I prefer to stay in RTDC, has good hotels, ample car parking and reasonable rates.

Thanks for your reply Kumar. We are not able to visit Jodhpur because of time constraint & more over I want to avoid Jaipur to Beawar part route because high traffic density. Earlier, I have been to Mt. Abu. Great place.

Thanks & regards

Request Feedback

Hi Devrishi,

Did you complete the tour? I am planning the trip to Jaipur and to Ranthambore next week.

Route is going to be Lucknow-Kanpur-Agra-Jaipur (2 nights) - Ranthambore (2 N)- Agra - Lucknow.

How much time did you take to cross Agra, route and time of the day.

Any other tips?
