About Jaipur Tour Packages
Jaipur is celebrated as India’s first planned city, which was designed by Vidyadhar Bhattacharya. It is the capital of Rajasthan, but is more famously known as the Pink City, earning its name from the soft pink hues the city has been painted in. Just like its beautiful hues, the city also blends its royal heritage with the vibrancy of a modern metropolis. It is even one of the three iconic destinations on the Golden Triangle circuit, along with Delhi and Agra, attracting travellers from across the globe. The fact that Jaipur welcomes everyone, without any restrictions on who can enjoy the city, enhances the experience.
Founded by the visionary leader Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II in 1727, Jaipur is one of the few cities that has been developed after proper planning. The layout of the city is based on the principles of Vastu Shastra. It features broad avenues and organised markets, which make it even more amazing to explore the city. Another amazing factor about the city is its surroundings. The city is engulfed by the majestic Aravalli Ranges, which have several beautiful hilltop forts like Jaigarh Fort and Nahargarh Fort, which also proudly reflect the city’s royal legacy and architectural brilliance.

Best Time to Visit Jaipur
While the beauty of the Pink City is undeniable, no matter the day of the year or the time of day you look at it, the weather and atmosphere of the city should be pleasant enough to be able to enjoy it. To make sure that you have an amazing experience, understand the climate of the city. Like most of Rajasthan, Jaipur experiences all major seasons: summer, monsoon, and winter. However, despite the changing seasons, the temperature is hot, especially during the noon time, even in the colder seasons. It is because the desert does influence the temperature of the city, even though it is located a bit far from the city. Here is a season-wise breakdown to help you decide:
-
Winter (November to March)
Winter is by far the best season to visit Jaipur. The weather is pleasant and comfortable during the winter months. During the day, temperatures stay between 20°C and 32°C, with cooler nights when the temperature drops to around 8°C. The wintertime is the most ideal period for sightseeing, fort visits, shopping, and outdoor activities. One thing to consider at this time is that it is the peak tourist season, which may cause rushes at all famous spots and price hikes.
-
Summer (April to June)
The summers in Jaipur are extremely hot and dry. The temperatures during these months also often exceed 40°C. It is almost impossible to go for extended sightseeing during the daytime; however, you can go out for exploration in early mornings and evenings. The trip’s timing is good because there are few tourists and better hotel deals.
-
Monsoon (July to September)
Apart from summers and winters, you can also visit the city during the monsoon season. It is the shoulder season for tourism; that saves you from the heat of the summer and the high tourist rush and prices of winter. Jaipur receives moderate rainfall that brings slight relief from the heat. The temperatures fall between 25°C and 35°C, and the city stands to look fresher and greener. Even the travel costs are relatively lower compared to winter.
Must-Try Dishes in Jaipur
Jaipur is not only the capital of Rajasthan, but it is also somewhat the food capital. The food in the city has a distinct flavour palette that has evolved over the years. It would not be wrong to say that the heavy immigration into the city by several communities has influenced the cuisine of the city. The fact that the city is home to the Royal family and has always been politically active, hosting state dinners and diplomatic meetings, has also contributed to the city’s taste palette. However, even as it accepted different cuisines, the city did not lose sight of its delicacies. The traditional Rajasthani cuisine is very much alive and a must-try when in the city.
- Dal Baati Churma
- Ker Sangri
- Gatte Ki Sabzi
- Pyaaz Kachori
- Ghevar
- Laal Maas
- Rajasthani Kadhi
- Mawa Kachori
