In the evening, head to the lively Lake Pichola, where golden hour bathes the palaces in a magical hue. Enjoy a leisurely lakeside stroll or sip chai at an old-world rooftop café overlooking the tranquil waters. If time permits, explore Hathi Pol Bazaar for miniature paintings and handcrafted souvenirs. Overnight stay in Udaipur.

Day 02 Udaipur Sightseeing – Royal Splendor on Display

After breakfast, begin your sightseeing with a visit to the awe-inspiring City Palace Complex, one of Rajasthan’s largest and most ornate. Marvel at its majestic courtyards, mirrored halls, and royal artifacts in the museum. Then walk to the nearby Jagdish Temple, an intricately carved 17th-century temple devoted to Lord Vishnu.

Later, enjoy a boat ride on Lake Pichola, drifting past the fairytale Lake Palace (Taj) and Jag Mandir Island Palace, surrounded by the Aravallis. End your day at the serene Saheliyon Ki Bari, a charming garden created for royal ladies, adorned with fountains, marble pavilions, and lotus pools.

Day 03 Udaipur to Kumbhalgarh – Into the Fortified Wilderness (105 km / 2 hours)

Check out after breakfast and journey through forested hills to Kumbhalgarh, a fortress city hidden in the Aravalli ranges. Upon arrival, ascend the rugged trail leading to Kumbhalgarh Fort, an architectural marvel built by Maharana Kumbha in the 15th century. Explore the massive stone ramparts—36 km long, making it the second-longest wall in the world.

Within the fort, visit the Badal Mahal (Palace of Clouds), offering panoramic views of the valleys below, and the Neelkanth Mahadev Temple, one of over 300 temples nestled in the fort. Spend time soaking in the history and serenity of this mountain stronghold. Overnight stay in Kumbhalgarh.

Day 04 Kumbhalgarh to Mount Abu – Rajasthan’s Hilltop Haven (170 km / 3.5 hours)

After a hearty breakfast, depart for Mount Abu, the only hill station in Rajasthan. The drive ascends into a cooler, greener terrain, where lakes and granite cliffs replace desert sands. On arrival, check in and relax. As evening approaches, head to Sunset Point or Honeymoon Point to watch the sun dip behind the hills in a blaze of colors, casting a golden glow over the Aravalli range. Enjoy the cool breeze and tranquil vibes. Overnight stay in Mount Abu.

Day 05 : Mount Abu Sightseeing – Temples, Lakes & Natural Wonders

After breakfast, begin with the sacred Dilwara Jain Temples, masterpieces of marble architecture, especially known for their finely carved ceilings and doorways. These 11th- to 13th-century temples are a spiritual and artistic marvel.

Then visit the ancient Achalgarh Fort, built by Rana Kumbha, which houses temples like Achaleshwar Mahadev. Later, stroll through Trevor’s Tank, a peaceful birdwatching site surrounded by forest. Snap photos at Toad Rock, a natural rock formation that resembles a toad poised to leap into Nakki Lake.

End the day with a tranquil boat ride on Nakki Lake, set against misty hills, followed by street food and shopping at the bustling Tibetan Market. Overnight stay in Mount Abu.

Day 06 Mount Abu to Udaipur – Back to the City of Lakes (165 km / 3 hours)

Enjoy breakfast and check out for your return to Udaipur. On arrival, check into your hotel. The rest of the day is free for exploration or relaxation. You may visit Fateh Sagar Lake, a quiet retreat ideal for a sunset walk or a scenic boat ride. Don’t miss Moti Magri (Pearl Hill) for views of Udaipur and the bronze statue of Maharana Pratap. Shop for Pichwai paintings, kathputlis (puppets), and silver jewelry in local bazaars. Overnight stay in Udaipur.

Day 07 Departure from Udaipur – Until We Meet Again

After a farewell breakfast, check out and proceed to the airport or railway station with memories of serene lakes, towering forts, divine temples, and hilltop sunsets.
