Jaipur - Chittorgarh
How to travel -
- Took local bus from Sindhi Camp. Can go directly there and take the ongoing bus.
-I took 9 o’clock bus. Pretty comfortable and must say, Rajasthan local bus drivers are so punctual!
-Distance- 5 h 53 min (311.2 km)
via NH 48 and NH 48
Where to Stay -
- The main spot of Chittorgarh is it’s Fort. So prefer staying in the fort rather than staying down in the city.
-From Bus station, got an Auto who charged 150/- to drop me up in the fort.
* Only one good Hotel i found was “The Fort Haveli”
-Can use Gps or can ask local people about the location.
-Though it looks a little congested from front but don’t be disappointed. LOOK AT THE INSIDE PICTURES!
-Had one of the best experience in this hotel as it was beautiful from inside, quite vintage but royal.
What to Order?
-Ask for Masala chai & Maggie. Worth every penny!!
-Also at night if you want to have local home food, you need to ask them a little prior so that they can cook nicely.
( Only complaint from the hotel was their delayed service. So better order 2 hours prior to get it on time !!! )
Can’t help but click the interiors of this hotel.
Beautiful & so peaceful.
So if you ask me, you can pretty up cover whole Chittorgarh in one day!
How to Travel in the city ?
-You need to get rented Scooty to roam around the fort and not go breathless,literally.
-Also get a registered guide. It good to roam while knowing the history behind it.
* Scooty on Rent : 500/- for a day
* Guide : 1000/- for a day
So we covered up all famous places along with a local guide.
