Short Rajasthan trips fail when the plan is unclear. Most itineraries try to cover too many cities, which leads to long travel hours and less time at each place. This Rajasthan 3 days tour from Delhi keeps the route simple and focuses on Jaipur so you get proper sightseeing without rushing.
This is a fixed-route plan built for travelers who want clear timing, defined inclusions, and no last-minute changes.
Route and travel time
The trip starts from Delhi and goes to Jaipur by road.
- Distance: around 280 km
- Travel time: 5 to 6 hours via NH48
Trying to include Udaipur or Jodhpur in 3 days increases travel time to 8–10 hours one way, which is not practical for a short trip.
Day 1: Delhi to Jaipur and local visits
Leave early between 6:00 AM and 7:00 AM. This helps you reach Jaipur by early afternoon.
After hotel check-in, start with places located close to each other.
Sightseeing plan
- City Palace
Central location and easy to explore in about 1 hour. - Jantar Mantar
Located next to City Palace. Takes 30 to 45 minutes. - Hawa Mahal
Quick stop for photos from the outside. - Market visit
Evening is ideal for exploring local bazaars like Johari Bazaar.
End the day early to stay fresh for the next day.
Day 2: Jaipur forts and viewpoints
Start by 8:00 AM. This day covers Jaipur’s main forts without overcrowding the schedule.
Morning
- Amber Fort
Reach early to avoid queues. Plan around 2 hours. - Jal Mahal
Short stop on the way back.
Afternoon
Choose one based on your interest:
- Nahargarh Fort
Best for panoramic city views.
or
- Jaigarh Fort
Better if you want to explore fort structures.

Day 3: Jaipur to Delhi return
After breakfast, check out and leave by 9:00 AM.
