The driver is part of the package, but the presence of an English-speaking guide adds a layer of storytelling that makes the journey informative and lively.
The tour is designed as a 15-hour adventure, encompassing early pick-up and late return. While this is a long day, the schedule is crafted to maximize your time at each site without feeling rushed.
Exploring Amber Fort
Your first stop is the Amber Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Next, you’ll visit the Jal Mahal, or Water Palace, which is situated in the middle of Man Sagar Lake. Although you might just stop for photos, the beauty of this palace in the water is undeniable.
