Travel Tips for Udaipur
The small decisions make or break a Udaipur trip: the side of town you sleep in, the hour you leave and whether walking in the old city and autos or cabs for the outer hills suits that particular journey. Here is the practical version, without pretending traffic and weather always cooperate.
Old city
- ✓Pack lightly if your hotel sits inside narrow lanes.
- ✓Wear shoes with grip on steep streets.
- ✓Walk short distances instead of repeatedly booking vehicles.
Transport
- ✓Use autos for outer sights.
- ✓Arrange Sajjangarh transport before sunset crowds.
- ✓Confirm boat operator and route before paying.
Shopping
- ✓Compare miniature paintings and textiles across several shops.
- ✓Ask what is handmade and what is reproduced.
- ✓Request a receipt for expensive purchases.
Pacing
- ✓Start City Palace near opening time.
- ✓Keep one sunset plan rather than racing between viewpoints.
- ✓Hydrate even in the cooler season.
