Advice on a trip to Bikaner, Jaisalmer and Jodhpur in November 2009~

Hi!

I'm new to IndiaMike but am really impressed with the advice/s offered by others and request for the same, as well!

Am taking an Uncle and Aunt of mine for a trip to Rajasthan and want your advice on hotels, restaurants/eating places, what to see and do, etc,etc~

We would be driving from Chandigarh on 22nd November 2009 to Bikaner for 2 nights, then onto Jaisalmer for 3 nights and ending with Jodhpur; from where they fly back to Mumbai and I get back to Chandigarh.

Would like to know of hotels to stay, places/sites enroute, what to buy, what to avoid, etc,etc~

Warm regards~G

Hi,

In this thread is a lot of information about Rajasthan.

Hi,

I have planned it this way for my trip in November

Leaving from Delhi to Jaisalmer by Train
Jaisalmer -- Booked Hotel Fifu and for next day booked there overnight safari in swiss luxury tents

Jodhpur -- Booked Hotel Devi Bhawan though my first preference was Hotel Ratan Vilas but it was all booked

Udaipur -- Booked Hotel Rangniwas

Jaipur -- Booked Hotel Umaid Mahal

I would be following this circle :

Delhi -> Jaisalmer -> Jodhpur -> Udaipur -> 2 hours halt in Chittaurgarh -> Jaipur -> Delhi

Will be travelling by delux buses between various cities which i will book after reaching there.

I booked hotels after lot of research on Lonely planet, tripadvisor, Indiamike and i hope it will be good when i am actually there

Regards
Ajay
