The Experience
The driver picks you up from your hotel, airport or railway station in Jaipur and heads toward Ajmer, where the first stop is Ajmer Sharif Dargah—a Sufi shrine built around the saint Moinuddin Chishti that draws devotees from all faiths. The qawwali (devotional music) performed here is part of the experience many travelers return for. From there, the route continues to Pushkar, a pilgrimage town centered on its sacred lake.
Pushkar Brahma Temple is the only temple in the world dedicated to Brahma, the creator in Hindu mythology; legend holds that his wife cursed him so his worship is confined to this one city. Nearby, Pushkar Lake itself is encircled by temples and ghats—the bathing steps where thousands of pilgrims come each year to take ritual dips in the water believed to bring spiritual merit. The lake and its surroundings anchor the town's spiritual identity.
The final major stop is Savitri Temple, reached by climbing 650 steps up a hillside. The temple honors Brahma's wife, and the view from the top—of the city, the lake, and the surrounding landscape—is the payoff for the hike. Sunrise is the recommended time for this climb. Throughout the day, the private vehicle and driver mean you move between sites without coordinating shared transport or negotiating with multiple vendors; the pace stays yours, and the schedule holds only what you want to see. Bottled water is provided, and all fuel, parking and toll charges are included in the price.
