Plan my Jaipur trip

Getting to Jaipur

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

Delhi → Jaipur

train · 4.5h

₹600

1 way / person

Mumbai → Jaipur

flight · 1.5h

₹4,500

1 way / person

Cheapest listed route is Delhi → Jaipur by train. Return for two works out to about ₹2,400 — so a whole trip lands near ₹15,674 for two, travel included.

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