Tour description
Jodhpur is one of the most striking cities in India, a sea of indigo-blue houses tumbling beneath the vast Mehrangarh Fort that crowns a rocky hill above. The 'Blue City' is a place of dramatic contrasts, from mighty ramparts to intimate painted lanes. On this walking tour a local guide leads you through its colour and history.
You will start at the lively clock tower market, wind through the blue-washed streets of the old city, and hear how the fort and the indigo houses came to be. Along the way you will discover the crafts, spices and daily life of Rajasthan. Vivid and dramatic, Jodhpur is a wonderful city to explore on foot.
