All
points within the state are connected by both road and
rail. While railway connections offer convenient overnighters,
reservations are necessary.
Visitors coming from overseas can choose
to come via Delhi or Mumbai, with Delhi being closer,
and providing the ideal entry point through Jaipur. From
Mumbai, the entry point into Rajasthan is Udaipur. The
only other national airport used for civil aviation services
is at Jodhpur.
Air:
Jaipur is the main airport to enter Rajasthan.
Serviced by all the domestic airlines of India,
Jaipur has connections to Delhi, Mumbai, Udaipur,
Aurangabad, Jodhpur and few more cities in India.
Other major airports are in Udaipur and Jodhpur.

Rail:
Rajasthan holidays, like many other facets of
the state is another unforgettable experience,
more if you consider traveling by train. Palace
on Wheels, one of the most luxurious trains in
the world, is the highpoint of any travel to Rajasthan.
Seven days of unmatched hospitality, living life
like a king, in the moving kingdom of Palace on
Wheels is just out of this world.

Road:
Road transport in Rajasthan, on the other hand,
is much better than in the other parts of India.
But, most enduring of the memories in Rajasthan
is undoubtedly Camel Safari and Horse Safari across
the Thar Desert. |

Rajasthan is visitor-friendly.
Credit cards are accepted in most tourist towns, and
certainly at hotels and shops. For visitors wary of
the local cuisine, continental cuisine is widely available:
where it may fail to be authentic, or come up to gourmet
standards, it will most certainly offer the familiar
taste of home.
Bottled mineral water is widely available. The state
has an extensive network of postal services and banks,
as well as telecommunication links with the rest of
the world. While it may not lack in modern amenities,
Rajasthan's flavor is delightfully medieval - truly
a place where time, as the cliché goes, has stood
still.
