A holy lake, a Sufi shrine, and two of Rajasthan's biggest cities either side.

Udaipur to start, Pushkar's temple ghats and camel country in the middle, and Jaipur to close — with the Ajmer Sharif Dargah along the way.

A pilgrimage town with wide appeal

Pushkar works whether or not the pilgrimage side interests you

Pushkar is built around one of Hinduism's few Brahma temples and a lake believed to have formed where a lotus petal fell — genuinely significant pilgrimage ground, with over 50 ghats around the water and a continuous rhythm of ritual bathing and evening aarti. It's also, separately, a laid-back desert town of rooftop cafés, camel country on its outskirts, and one of India's most photographed sunsets over the lake.

We route this as a natural link between Udaipur and Jaipur rather than a standalone add-on, with a stop at the Ajmer Sharif Dargah — the shrine of Sufi saint Moinuddin Chishti and a major pilgrimage site in its own right — just 15km from Pushkar.

Good to know

Pushkar Tour Package — Frequently Asked Questions

Is Pushkar worth visiting if we're not religious or on a pilgrimage?

Yes, the lake, ghats and evening aarti are worth experiencing as cultural sights on their own, and the town's cafés and camel-country outskirts appeal well beyond pilgrimage travellers.

What is the Ajmer Sharif Dargah and is it far from Pushkar?

It's the shrine of the Sufi saint Moinuddin Chishti in nearby Ajmer, one of India's most visited pilgrimage sites for people of multiple faiths, roughly 15km from Pushkar and an easy stop en route.

Is alcohol and meat available in Pushkar?

No, Pushkar is a strictly vegetarian town and alcohol is prohibited within its limits due to its religious significance — worth knowing before you plan meals there.

Can this tour be booked as just Udaipur-Pushkar without continuing to Jaipur?

Yes, we can end the trip at Pushkar with a return drive to Udaipur instead of continuing on to Jaipur — just mention your preference when you enquire.

When is Pushkar most crowded, and should we avoid that time?

The town gets significantly busier during the annual Pushkar Camel Fair (usually October or November); it's a remarkable spectacle if that's what you're after, but expect higher hotel prices and crowds if you'd rather have a quieter visit.
