Getting to Ajmer

Usually the biggest line in the budget — and the one the estimate above leaves out.

Jaipur → Ajmer

train · 2.5h

₹200

1 way / person

Delhi → Ajmer

train · 6h

₹400

1 way / person

Cheapest listed route is Jaipur → Ajmer by train. Return for two works out to about ₹800 — so a whole trip lands near ₹5,281 for two, travel included.

Fares are typical one-way estimates per person from Ajmer's common gateways, not live prices — book early and expect festival months to run higher.
