Step-by-step itinerary

Udaipur half day city tour

  • Visit Fateh Sagar Lake
  • Explore Saheliyon Ki Bari garden
  • See the Ahar Cenotaphs
  • Walk through Tea and Spice Market

The Experience

The tuk tuk picks you up from your hotel and heads north to Fateh Sagar Lake, an artificial lake built in the 1680s and named after Maharana Fateh Singh. The guide walks you through the history as you take in the water and the city beyond it. From there you move to Saheliyon ki Bari, a garden in the northern part of the city built by Rana Sangram Singh, where fountains, marble elephants and a lotus pool sit among the kiosks. A small museum on the grounds holds artifacts from the site's past.

The tour then heads east to the Ahar Cenotaphs, a cluster of more than 250 cenotaphs about 2 km outside the city center. The site holds 19 chhatris—domed structures—that mark the cremation sites of 19 maharajas of Mewar, built over roughly 350 years. The guide explains the significance of each as you walk through the grounds. Before returning to your hotel, the route includes a stop at the Tea and Spice Market in the city center, where you can see the local trade in action and pick up spices if you want.

The tuk tuk is the transport for the whole route, which means you move through the city the way locals do—close to street level, able to stop and step out at each site without the distance a larger vehicle creates. Bottled water comes with you for the morning. The guide speaks English throughout and is there to answer questions about what you're seeing, not to rush you through it.

What’s included

  • Private tuk tuk transportation for the full route.
  • a live guide speaking English.

  • hotel pickup and drop-off.

Is this one for you?Book this if you're covering four scattered sites (lake, gardens, cenotaphs, market) in one morning and want a private tuk tuk that stops at each rather than walking or using multiple rides between them.
