Camping amidst the rolling terrains of Sumitran spread along with your companions in Rajasthan and enjoying the experience is a best way to end your day!
Whether you first-time traveller or pretty well-worn, the appeal of Rajasthan is that it makes you feel independent and brave and sage all at once.
At Raj India Tours, we create travels that allow solo travellers to experience Rajasthan off the tourist trail through culture and connections and also some comfort!
So let’s get into everything you need to know before your solo adventure, from how to stay safe to the best cities for exploring on your own.
🛡️ Safety for Solo Travellers in Rajasthan
To explore solo is to be free, entirely but also to use your brain. Here’s how you can keep yourself safe and comfortable on the road.
🧭 1. Plan Your Trip in Advance
Use a reputable agency like Raj India Tours to prebook your hotels, guides, and transport.
Let a friend or family member know your travel plans and hotel name.
Bring digital and printed versions of your ID and bookings.
Pro Tip: The ideal months for solo travel in Rajasthan are between October and March as the weather is good and safe for sightseeing.
👕 2. Dress & Blend In
Rajasthan is traditionally rich and a tad conservative.
Choose conservative clothing — long skirts, head scarves, loose-fitting pants.
Do not wear flashy jewellery or accessories.
Be respectful of local customs — smile and be polite when saying “hello” in temples or rural areas.
🚖 3. Choose Safe Transportation
In Jaipur, Jodhpur, and Udaipur, take Ola, Uber, or pre-booked taxis.
Don’t drive on the expressway or in the desert after sunset.
When commuting long distances, share your live location with a friend or family member.
🏨 4. Stay in Trusted Accommodations
Choose centrally located hotels with good online reviews and 24-hour reception.
Steer clear of remote stays unless they’re confirmed through a tour operator.
If you’re planning to stay in a desert camp near Jaisalmer, check that it’s government-approved or operated by a well-known provider.
💬 5. Stay Socially Aware
Be friendly but wary — not every stranger has good intentions.
Avoid telling new acquaintances too many details about your travel plans.
When in doubt, trust your inner voice — if it feels wrong, it likely is.
🆘 6. Emergency Readiness
