Evening riverfront walk and aarti at Ram Ghat to soak Ujjain’s atmosphere; ghats are open all day and aarti is around sunset. Light crowds in the evening but still lively.
Optional morning walk on Mandhata or short boat on the Narmada (boating operates in daylight); good for photos before the long drive. Keep it short to stay on schedule.
Long cross-state transfer into Rajasthan (approx. 9–12 hours depending on stops); start early and plan 2–3 breaks. Ensure fuel, charger and rest stops are planned.
Visit Salasar Balaji (Hanuman shrine) with lively evening aarti; temple opens early and remains active until ~9:00–9:30pm. Expect queues during peak times.
Long return drive (~12–14 hours); plan two main stops (lunch and tea) and consider an overnight halt if tired. Rotate drivers and keep emergency contacts ready.
