Itinerary
Sardar Market
Admission included20 min
The Ghanta Ghar in Jodhpur is a magnificent clock tower in the centre of the city, built by Maharaja Sardar Singh about 200 years ago. Known as the clock tower of Rajasthan, it is a popular landmark that signifies the start of Old Jodhpur. The tower offers a brilliant panoramic view of the city from the top. The area surrounding this imposing structure is bustling with locals presenting all sorts of products and services, making it the busiest and largest marketplace of Jodhpur. The markets and the tower are a must visit for travellers who want to witness and experience the culture and people of Jodhpur.
The clock tower is surrounded by street markets, with the most famous amongst them being Sardar Market, named after the late king. One can find a variety of people in this locality, representing all walks of life. At night, the tower comes to life when it is all lit up, making for a glorious end to a day well spent at this bountiful market.
Toorji Ka Jhalra (Toorji’s Step Well)
Admission included30 min
Toorji’s Step Well – was built in the 1740s by Maharaja Abhaya Singh’s Queen. Submerged for nearly a century, its recent drainage, clean-up and restoration has uncovered over two hundred feet of hand carved treasure in Jodhpur’s famous Rose-Red Sand-Stone; intricate carvings of dancing elephants, medieval lion and cow water-spouts, and niches housing deities long gone. Your stay in Jodhpur would be incomplete without a visit to this wondrous monument.
45 min
Will walk to narrow street deep in city to view blue house and market in old city.
Kunj Bihari Temple
Admission included30 min
The temple was built in 1847 by Maharaja Vijay Singhji in the memory of his deceived son Sher Singh who died at a very young age. The temple is situated in the interiors of Jaipur but is accessible by all means. The shrine is made of Chittor sandstone and Makrana marble. The temple belongs to Rama Nandi Vaishnava sects of Hindus. The marvelous architecture of the building is something to keep a note of. A Shiva temple is also there which is 2 floors below the surface but can be seen from the surface. A pathway is also there to visit the temple.
Ranisar Padamsar Lakes
Admission included30 min
The Ranisar and Padamsar lakes are two adjoining lakes in the city of Jodhpur built over 500 years ago. They are situated at the rear of the Mehrangarh Fort, near the Fateh Pol. These scenic lakes were created to conserve water, as Jodhpur falls under a desert region where water is scarce. The tranquillity of these adjacent lakes is complemented brilliantly by the stark contrast of the majestic Mehrangarh Fort, making it a sight to behold. The clear waters have been preserved and maintained for centuries, providing a serene vibe and an almost identical reflection of the grand fort on its surface.
20 min

Deepak was one of the best guides I ever had!!! You can tell he loves his job... and that's what makes his tour truly unique! He could answer all the questions that came to mind and he showed us super many places that we would never have found on our own! It was my girlfriend's birthday the day after the tour and he got her evening prayer a cake and organized a party! We couldn't believe it at first we're nice Deepak! Please, if you read this comment you don't need to look any further, you can book this tour and you will have the best guide in Jodhpur!

Amazing
We had an absolutely incredible day! The tour was wonderful, and it ended up being just my partner and me, which made the whole experience feel much more personal. We laughed a lot with our guide, and he gave us great explanations while also letting us take as much time as we wanted at each attraction. He even took lots of photos for us along the way, which we really appreciated.
There are also a few special surprises during the tour that I won’t spoil here — it’s better if you discover them yourselves! But trust me, you won’t regret it. There are some truly special moments that make the experience even more memorable.
Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, so you can ask him anything and he’ll be happy to help or explain.
The best part was that when we mentioned it was my birthday, he made the wonderful gesture of taking us to a rooftop of a hotel (which I also highly recommend visiting, even just for the views) so we could enjoy a birthday cake. They even sang Happy Birthday to me! It turned into such a special moment, and I felt truly welcomed.
We had such a great time, and our guide was very, very funny, which made the whole day even better.
Thank you so much for such a memorable experience — I would definitely recommend this tour!

The true soul of Jodhpur with an exceptional guide
We had the pleasure of exploring the Old Town of Jodhpur with Deepak, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! He guided us through hidden alleys and authentic corners that we would have never discovered on our own, making the tour feel truly local and special.
The walk was beautiful, with charming stairways leading us to stunning viewpoints overlooking the city and the fort. Throughout the tour, Deepak shared fascinating stories, insights, and anecdotes that brought the history and culture of Jodhpur to life.
He is knowledgeable, passionate, and incredibly pleasant to spend time with, and he truly knows how to show the real soul of the city.
I highly recommend everyone to take a tour with Deepak — it’s the best way to discover the true essence of Jodhpur.

Fantastic Tour of old Jodhpur
Deepak gave us a really enjoyable and informative tour around the Old Town and took us to a few special spots and blue alleys, as well as viewpoints at the fort for sunset we would not have found otherwise! He has been doing these tours for over 20 years and really knows a lot about the history of the city, highly recommend to take a tour with him when you are in Jodhpur.

Excellent tour
We had a wonderful tour with Prabhat, who was so engaging and knowledgeable about Jodhpur. He grew up in the old town and still lives there, sharing fascinating stories about the history and culture of the region that really brought it to life. Plus, the samosas were scrumptious! I highly recommend this tour if you want a proper insight into Jodhpur.

Perfect Blue City tour!
We had such a wonderful tour with Prabhat as our guide! He was so professional, yet passionate and fun about the blue city! He shared lots of information about the region ranging from local cuisine, religion, history and arts. He gave us plenty of time to explore and take pictures where we wanted. He knew great photo spots to take us to and see lots of murals. What we loved most was that there was zero pressure to shop or buy anything on this tour. It was refreshing! Prabhat was the perfect guide! Pickup and communication were perfectly coordinated.

The Man Who Talked Too Much
We previously reviewed this tour and gave it a very low score. Our original review is provided as a screenshot attached. The operator has since contacted us and explained that he was not available for for our tour so sent a a replacement in his his stead. Given previous reviews by others, I think the normal tour operator is very good, but our experience was quite negative. The operator has offered us a full refund due to our experience.
