We had a fun day exploring Jaipur with our very friendly rickshaw driver Sharif. He spoke in good English and always gave us good explanations of the places that we saw - Hawa Mahal, City Palace, Jantar Mantar, Gaitor ki Chattriyan, Amber Fort and Jal Mahal. We had plenty of time to explore. Sharif drove us safely through some very full roads and heavy rain and was very chatty. We also got an insight into carpet making and block printing of textiles.

Itinerary
Rajput fort and heritage buildings are located in Amer, Rajasthan, India. Amer is a town covering an area of 4 square kilometres, situated 11 kilometres from Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan. The town of Amer and its historic structures were originally built by Raja Man Singh, with later additions made by Sawai Jai Singh.
Panna Meena Step Well is situated in the Amer town of Jaipur district. You will have to cross some narrow streets of the ancient town to reach the spot. This ancient Panna Meena Step Well is a unique architectural wonder of India. The stepwell was built during the reign of Maharaja Jai Singh in the 16th century and was designed by a Brahmin (Hindu caste). It was constructed in an ancient way to do water harvesting during the rainy season. According to the locals of this area, it has the most extraordinary architectural style. The stairs that are used to go down cannot be used again to go upstairs. Only locals can do this as they are habituated to it. The astonishing sight of this stepwell leaves everyone amazed because of its unusual symmetrical style of staircases, which are geometrical in shape but organized in a unique crisscross way.
Jal Mahal is a palace in the middle of the Man Sagar Lake in Jaipur city, The Jal Mahal palace is an architectural showcase of the Rajput style of architecture on a grand scale.
This is another monument to visit in Jaipur. Royal Gaitor is a resting place of the past rulers, there are various Chhatris also known as cenotaphs which are dedicated to the Maharaja. These cenotaphs are built with majestic intricate carvings that make pillars and arches look stunning.
Palace was also the location of religious and cultural events, It now houses the Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II Museum, and continues to be the home of the Jaipur royal family.
The magnificent scientific place Jantar Mantar of this Jaipur tour was built in 18th century by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, the huge masonry instruments were used to study the movement of constellations and stars in the sky. Enormous sun-dial still provides accurate time, which is subject to daily corrections.
Also known with the name of ‘Palace of Winds’ it is an architectural marvel of the 18th century. Designed by Ustad Lal Chand, it is built with pink and red sandstones to camouflage with the color of Pink City. With a total of nine hundred and fifty three windows and standing up to a height of 15 meter, the five storied palace was built for the royal ladies by Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh in the year 1799.

I had a great time on the tour. It was super hot but they showed me all the important sights as scheduled. I was able to see everything on the tour and some. The pick up was on time and the drop off was as scheduled. The guide and driver didn't speak much English but they were polite and courteous. They asked me to write a review the day of my tour but no one pressured me to do so and as a matter of fact it took me about 2 months to get back to writing this review but I was happy to share my experience once I was back home. I would definitely hire Ali's company to drive me around.
My sister, daughter and I had a absolute blast discovering Jaipur with Farooq He was very helpful and gave us the best advice on our to go about. At the end we had some take aways 😍😍
Excellent tour covering all the major attractions of Jaipur. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable and a good driver too. I would recommend this trip.
I'm very happy to share my experience for this trip. Excellent service by tripadvisor.in. Yesterday I booked a Tuk-Tuk for the whole day. At a very low cost... My Tuk - Tuk driver Mr. Ballu 👍 was very humble and polite. He make me reach out to all the places one day. 👍👍👍👍👍👍 Service was excellent...👌👌👌👌
My auto rider for the day Mr. Ballu was bang on time. He was courteous enough to explain the whole day itinerary and he accommodated any change that we requested. He explained all the points related to sight seeing and waited patiently for us at each location so that we could see each place at our own pace. He also gave valuable tips as required and arranged a lovely guide Mr. Ajay for Amer fort. Overall a nice day outing.
Mr Ballu was our tuk tuk driver for Jaipur City Tour with Flower Market. Mr Ballu is really a gem of a person, he came to the pickup location at mentioned time with no delays. He took us to all the specified places in the itinerary and helped us to make beautiful memories by clicking few beautiful pictures of us. He also took us to one of the gem stone factory where I got my wife a beautiful ring. He also extended his time to take us back safely to the hotel. Overall it was a wonderful trip with Mr Ballu in Jaipur. Ballu is much recommended for your beautiful trip.
Our half day tour with Adi today was excellent. He gave us lots of choices of things to see in Jaipur and consulted with us every step of the way to make sure we had the best experience possible in the limited time we had available. We enjoyed the Cenotaphs of the Maharanis and Amber Fort and had a stroll by Jal Mahal on the way home. Adi is a very pleasant young man, absolutely reliable and trustworthy with very good English and knowledge of the city. A bonus is that he has a great sense of humour! We highly recommend him.
Khan was an excellent driver and guided us throught Jaipur profesionally. He gave us a very good lassi as a present, amazing.
Thank you Ali for having guided us around the most famous spots of Jaipur and for your suggestions about food and shopping!
It was my fourth and best day so far in India. Sherif and Farooq are excellent guides. I highly recommend this TukTuk tour to save time and feel the local vibes with a good local. Sherif the driver was quite helpful and serviable.
We had Ali or locally known Ali Ferrari! He’s amazing, a nice guy and a great person to have for Jaipur. Superb driving, bespoke tours for what we wanted. His prices were so cheap we had to pay him more. A nice humble man. I was really ill in Jaipur and he whisked me back to the hotel nice and quick! Please choose Ali, please pay him well! He made our Jaipur trip so so so much better
This tour was excellent, with our driver being on time and flexible so as we could take in all the main Jaipur attractions.
Whilst waiting in the boiling hot sun, for an Uber which was taking forever, Sharif wandered over and started chatting and was so engaging, we cancelled the Uber and jumped in his Tuk Tuk This is the moment we felt luck was on our side He took us to the City Palace, and the Hawa Mahal, and stopped for us to take pics and waited for us, and also to buy some necessities His ability to navigate the chaotic Jaipur traffic safely and with curtesy, was really impressive, all the while, chatting about the history of the landmarks we were passing, and interacting with his great sense of humour. His English is very good So of course we booked him for the next day for a full day of looking at the all the forts and the Water Palace and to the airport On our return to Jaipur a few days later, he was waiting for us with his welcoming smile, like a long lost friend, and again stopped at places for photo opportunities and also took us to a jewellery emporium Do yourself a favour and book SHARIF, satisfaction Guaranteed
A very good day with Ballu and his tuk tuk, moving from different visit sites with helpfull advise. Also a safe driver in the impressive traffic of Jaipur : City Palace, Jampar Mahal and the Amber Fort and the Lake Palace. Thank you Ballu!
Sharif made us have the best experience! He was born and raised in Jaipur, and has many years of experience with tours. He took care of all the details and adapted the schedule to our preferences. Very polite, funny and hard working. 100% recomended
We went this day with Sharif as a tuk tuk driver. Sharif is a relaxed guy who wants to bring you everywhere. I suggest you make your own plan and he will bring you. He mentioned to see the graves of the maharadja's which was a blessing during the chaotic traffic scene in Jaipur. We enjoyed the sight seeing in the enjoyable late morning sun. Furthermore we went to Amer Fort reachable by tuk tuk, which I can recommend. Besides we saw City Palais, Hawa Mahal, Jal Mahal (Water Fort), Jaighar Fort and the Hanuman temple (nice view, but go by your own, no guide!). Tuk tuk is good way to move in Jaipur.
Ali was amazing. Very informative and fun! I was alone and he made me feel safe. He gave me his honest input about everything. We covered 10 places in one day without a hassle!
The best thing that happened to us in Jaipur was meeting Sharif. He showed us the most beautiful side of the city and the best places to eat. Full of good humour and chat he made our trip unforgettable. He also recommended excellent guides for our next trip to Agra. A good man.
Good experience on this trip. The driver was very cordial and went to different places as per our requests.
My husband and I had the best Tuk Tuk experience with this company. The vehicle was neat, and the Driver ( Ali) is excellent and knowledgeable navigating through the city with care. He took us to Bapu bazaar, and on the way back to the hotel he showed us the Albert Hall Museum, of impressive architecture. This company also offers the private city tour service, which we also hired for a more complete and comfortable tour service.
We booked Ali as a private driver for the day. He was really polite, speaks good english and drives safely. We had full day service, going to the Amber Fort and Gaitor's tumbs. The price, 1100 rupies, makes total sense as you have your own driver and he waits for you in every stop. Recommendable if you want to enjoy the pink city!
An amazing day touring Jaipur. We only had one day to see the city, so this was a great way to fit so much of it in. Our tuk tuk driver, Ali, was great and made us feel safe and comfortable. We also added a guide to the tour. The guide, Sam, was arranged by the tour company and he was the highlight of the day - super knowledgeable about everything we saw and no question was too much! Could not recommend this tour highly enough - amazing value for money!
Ballu was very helpful and really went out of his way to provide us a great experience. He also helped us out when we needed a taxi for an inter city ride. Overall, I very much recommend his services
Ali picked us up on time,at our hotel. He drove us to Jal Mahal & Amber fort for great photos. We saw a herd of elephants, so beautiful. We drove into the city. Went to the Maharaja burial, so beautiful with such intricate details. Ali constantly stopped for many photo opportunities. Lots of cows whilst driving. Ali took us to a fruit & vegie market & other tourist destinations . We had a fantastic lassi, very interesting flavour & quite refreshing. We had a cooking stint organised at a hotel. Ali dropped us there then came back to finish the tour. Ali was so nice & friendly. An awesome tour guide. We saw lots around the city. He also took us to the beer shop & grocery supermarket. I highly recommend Ali & his team for an awesome tour around Jaipur.
“Ali has a Ferrari” is the sentence we will remember. He was a safe driver and showed us all we wanted. Good mood and easy vibe were part of the tour.
we had the best tuk tuk tour with Farooq and team! We visited all the main tourist sites, the water palace, the fort, hawa and kids were very happy to get the chance to visit the hand printing craft. It was an experience for them to have their own clothes being made for them in less than 2 hours and delivered to our hotel on the same day. As we were in Jaipur when it was monsoon season so we got to travel in Tuk tuk passing knee deep flooded roads! Very exciting for the kids! Farooq and his team were amazing not only with the kids but also with my old parents. Everyone has a great time and fun in Jaipur. Farooq and his team made our stay in Jaipur memorable. I would recommend Farooq to anyone for the 1st class travel service Farooq and his team provide.
Mr.Nawab Khan is your go Auto and tour guide, expert and safe driver he knows the ins and outs of the city like no other driver if you want to have a great ride with a safe driver that’s calm and knowledgeable don’t hesitate to book him he beats all the prices you and your guest will love the experience. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had a great day with Ali, he was able to meet our expectations and our needs throughout the day, thanks to him we were able to discover some places that we would not have discovered by ourselves, Ali was also able to find us a means of transport at the last moment for our trip to Agra. Ali is very friendly and we recommend him for a discovery of Jaipur.
Our driver was Farooq. He arrived on time, and we felt safe being driven by him amongst the madness of the Jaipur traffic. All the promised stops were visited, and he waited patiently for us to visit each. The full day tour represented excellent value for money, and at no stage did Farooq lead us away from the sights in order to visit local vendors selling merchandise we would not have been interested in. That was greatly appreciated.
My driver Ali was amazing. He had lots of awesome ideas of places to visit at pickup. He also honored my request to visit elephants. He was very knowledgeable and super helpful. I highly recommend this tour.
Ali Ferrari - We were in a group of 4 (2 couples). Therefore Ali had his friend and colleague Khan join us. Both were helpful and considerate and we enjoyed being shown around Jaipur by them. Our driver Khan was very knowledgeable, pleasant and courteous over the 2 days we were driven around by him.
Both drivers we had were fantastic and knowledgeable. Brilliant drivers and the 2 days we had them for was fabulous value for money. We can highly recommend this way to tour jaipur
Great guide, good english, nice person. Definitely recommend the tour. A good way to enjoy Jaipur.
It was the best tour we ever did!! I want to do it again. Our guide was so fun, knowledgeable, and helpful. The tuk tuk was a thrill and comfortable. He took us to see everything we wanted and then showed us things we had no idea existed. He really opened our eyes to the beauty of Jaipur. It is definitely the best way to see Jaipur. My wife and I spent all day and never got bored. We recommend this tour to anyone looking for a great, safe, interesting, fun, fascinating way to see Jaipur.
khan sahab was amazing! took us around town, showed us the best spots for fabrics and warned us about people who could upcharge us in the city. great man and great service!
We had such a wonderful time driving around Dehli in a Tuktuk with our driver Sheriff! He showed us all the amazing sites around Jaipur and have us some great advice on what to do and in which order. Driving around in the Tuktuk felt very safe and much more fun! I would definitely recommend this tour!
The best decision we made while visiting Jaipur, was to go on this Tuk tuk tour. Our driver and guide was Farook, and we would highly recommend him. We got to see all the highlights of Jaipur, and made sure we got to the best vantage points. Farook recommended that we see the Albert Hall museum during the evening when it was lit up beautifully from the outside. This is something we would not have seen, had it not been for him. If you want to see and feel the vibes of Jaipur, don’t hesitate to go on this tour. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Farook, for a wonderful time.
Thank you so much Ali for this amazing tour to discover the city of Jaipur. Although one day is very short to visit the whole city, I have seen so many impressive places. Ali also gave me advice to visit the places and was really listening to what I wanted to do. I recommend strongly
What an experience. We had a fantastic day with Navab Kahn as our driver. He was very kind, knowledgeable and very good driver! Took us where we wanted to go and also gave some great suggestions. Throughout he listened to what we wanted and needed and didn’t take us anywhere we didn’t want to go, I would recommend him to anyone.
We had the pleasure to do the " Jaipur Sightseeing Tour by Tuk-Tuk" with Mohsin. He was very considerate and he gave us very good advice. A great way to visit Jaipur when you don't have much time
Meeting Ali and his Ferrari was a delight for your Jaipur trip. He is everything you could wish for as a guide and driver. If you got your own plan, Ali is reliable and let you reach the places with some insight knowledge and security suggestions. If you dont have a plan you can listen to his expertise about his hometown and its sights. Great meeting you my friend. Lukas
Best way to see Jaipur , Ali was very patient and knowledgeable and we were very comfortable with him. Value for money 100%
I had the pleasure to visit Jaipur with Ali and its Ferrari. I had an amazing time. Thanks to Ali, I was able to visit incredible places in a really short time. I also had the opportunity to taste amazing local restaurants. Also, Ali knows the perfect place to design the clothes or jewelry of your dream.
I was a solo traveller in India and Ali was my driver. India is not the friendliest country for female solo travelers, but Ali made me very comfortable and I felt secure with him all the time. I only can recommend him!
Mr. Ali was great! Would definitely recommend going around with him. Was somewhat disappointed with the tour guide but well, 5/5 for Mr. Ali for sure! Traveling around in an auto is an experience on its own which you can’t get when in a car. Would definitely do this again whenever we get back to Jaipur ❤️
Thank you Ali for taking me around the last few days. I felt extremely comfortable and he was so kind and patient. Loved your Ferrari and I hope to see you soon
Our driver Mosin took my girlfriend and me on a ride to the Amber Fort, the Stepwell, the Water Castle, the Royal Gaitor and the Observatory. We both had a very good feeling with him, he was calm but talkative, emphatetic with us, honest and a very pleasant character. He made good suggestions and knew some secret places nearby, but he was never insisting. He gave us basic information about some of the places we visited and We took our time at each place, especially the Royal Gaitor is ideal to calm down a bit. When we came out, Mohan was waiting for us with tee and coffee. In the middle of it, Farook called and asked if everything was fine. We could affirm that question. The itinerary is very flexible, we could have asked for any place within the city. We could have visitited the Royal Palace and the Albert Hall, too. All in all, a very pleasant experience that we recommend wholeheartedly.
We enjoyed the 8 hours tour through Jaipur with Mosin a lot. He told us afterwards that we were his first clients which we would not have guessed. With Mosin we felt safe and comfortable as he is a nice and honest person who manages the traffic with patience and experience. We were given drinking water, tea and coffee, offered a lassi and could tell our wishes towards the route. Definitely a great option to cover almost all of Jaipurs famous sights. We liked the Royal Gaitor best which Mosin recommended for a break around noon.
My friend and I had a great time going around Jaipur in Ali's ferrari. Ali was friendly and easy to talk. In the space of 1,5 days, we not only managed to visit Jaipur's old city but also Amber's fort, Jaipur's Royal Gaitor and spots only known to locals. On top of this cultural marathon, we also had time to enjoy a massage and to visit local factories. Special mention to the local and affordable restaurants where we had lunch.
