Tips

To extend the adventure, add a day in Udaipur to explore its lakes and palaces, or visit the desert town of Jaisalmer for a camel safari. If you need to shorten the trip, skip the afternoon safari in Ranthambore and replace Day 3 with a relaxed morning in Jaipur before catching an evening train back home.
