The tour is the result of years of dedication and expertise in Jodhpur’s tourism industry, aiming to create lasting memories for every visitor and provide a unique experience during each journey.

Jodhpur, the second-largest city in Rajasthan, is famously known as the Blue City. This nickname is well-earned, as much of the city’s architecture, including temples, havelis, and homes, is painted in various shades of blue. What makes these blue houses even more intriguing is that they are painted blue both inside and out. The old city of Jodhpur still carries a medieval charm, preserving the timeless traditions of rich craftsmanship and art.

The bustling, well-decorated bazaars and the colorful turbans worn by the locals create a lively, picturesque atmosphere that captivates visitors. WALK TO CITY TOUR offers an exclusive chance to explore the historic heart of Jodhpur, known for its iconic blue houses, vibrant markets, and rich cultural heritage. During this walk, visitors will stroll through narrow, ancient streets and uncover fascinating sights such as the medieval step wells, temples with early morning rituals, intricately carved homes, and their welcoming doorsteps.

Guests will also have the opportunity to experience local cuisine. For those interested, we offer a visit to a local Brahmin’s house for tea and snacks, where they can learn how to prepare traditional Indian chai and engage with the locals. The Blue City is truly a paradise for photographers, offering countless scenic moments. And that’s just the beginning—there’s so much more to explore!

WALK TO CITY TOUR is generally time-bound, but the depth of exploration can be adjusted based on each visitor’s interests, making each tour a memorable, personalized experience.
