Good to know

- Pushkar: Pushkar is a vegetarian, alcohol-free town; respect the rules around the ghats.
- Jodhpur: Walk down from Mehrangarh through the blue lanes rather than driving back.
- Jaisalmer: Spend one night in a desert camp at Sam or Khuri; the sunset and night sky are the highlight.
- Bikaner: Add Bikaner between Jaisalmer and Delhi for a less-visited stop.
- Udaipur: Book a lake-view room in the old city; the evening view over Pichola is the reason to come.
