Jaipur to Udaipur Taxi: Fare, Distance & Travel Guide
Jaipur to Udaipur is one of Rajasthan's most popular road journeys and for a good reason. The Pink City and the City of Lakes are both iconic. The 395 to 420 km highway between them passes through Ajmer, the sacred town of Pushkar, the historically significant Chittorgarh Fort and the temple town of Nathdwara. No train covers all of this. No flight shows you any of it.
A Jaipur to Udaipur taxi gives you something no other mode of travel can - the freedom to stop at Chittorgarh Fort for 90 minutes, pick up prasad at Nathdwara and still arrive at your Udaipur hotel by early afternoon. That is what experienced Rajasthan travellers choose, and it is the route Devika Tours drivers have covered hundreds of times.

Jaipur to Udaipur Distance & Travel Time
The road distance from Jaipur to Udaipur is approximately 395 to 420 km depending on the route. Via NH 48 - the most direct and well-maintained highway - it is around 395 km. The journey takes 6 to 7 hours non-stop under normal traffic conditions.
Here is a quick reference for the route options:
| Route | Distance | Travel Time | Road Quality |
|---|---|---|---|
| NH 48 via Ajmer → Chittorgarh | ~395 km | 6 to 7 hours | Excellent (4-lane highway) |

Best Route from Jaipur to Udaipur by Taxi
The recommended route is NH 48 via Ajmer and Chittorgarh. It is the fastest, best-maintained and most scenic option. Devika Tours drivers use this route on every trip.
Recommended Road Sequence
Jaipur → Ajmer (NH-48) → Pushkar (optional) → Beawar → Chittorgarh → Nathdwara → Udaipur
Road Conditions
The Jaipur to Ajmer stretch on NH 48 is an excellent four-lane highway. From Ajmer onward through Chittorgarh and Nathdwara, the road is well-maintained state highway. Petrol pumps, dhabas and rest stops are available at regular intervals throughout the journey.
Best Departure Time
Start your drive between 5 and 6 AM. This avoids Jaipur city traffic, gives you cool morning driving conditions and ensures arrival in Udaipur before noon. On weekends and during peak season (October to March), early departure makes a real difference in travel time.

Places Worth Stopping Between Jaipur and Udaipur
This is the biggest advantage of a private taxi from Jaipur to Udaipur over a train or bus - you control the stops. Tell Us your preferred stops at booking and the driver plans the sequence and timing to avoid wasted backtracking.
Pushkar (~145 km from Jaipur)
Sacred lake, Brahma Temple, colourful ghats. The only temple of Lord Brahma in India. Allow 1 to 1.5 hours. Slight detour from NH 48 but most travellers find it worth it.
Ajmer Dargah (~130 km from Jaipur)
Dargah Sharif of Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti. One of the most visited religious sites in India. If you visit both Ajmer and Pushkar, budget 2 to 2.5 hours total for this stretch.
Chittorgarh Fort (~230 km from Jaipur)
India's largest fort by area. Rani Padmini Palace, Vijay Stambha, Kirti Stambha - the historical density here is extraordinary. Allow a minimum of 90 minutes. This is the single most recommended stop on the entire Jaipur to Udaipur route.
Nathdwara (~330 km from Jaipur)
Home of the Shrinathji temple, one of the most sacred Vaishnava shrines in India. Famous for Pichwai paintings. Allow 30 to 45 minutes. A natural stop just 65 km before Udaipur.
Kumbhalgarh (~350 km from Jaipur)
UNESCO-listed fort with the world's second-longest continuous wall. Requires a slight detour but highly worthwhile if your schedule allows. Best combined with a two-day Jaipur to Udaipur trip.
One Way vs Round Trip – Which to Book?
Book One Way If You Are:
Flying back from Udaipur airport, continuing your Rajasthan itinerary to Jodhpur or Mount Abu, or spending 2 or more days in Udaipur. We offers one-way Jaipur to Udaipur taxi with no inflated empty-return surcharge. One-way is the more popular booking type for this route.
Book Round Trip If You Are:
Visiting Udaipur for just one or two days and returning to Jaipur. Round trip booking means the same trusted driver handles both legs. The driver stays in Udaipur during your visit and returns with you.
- Rajasthan circuit travellers → always book one way. Continue to Jodhpur or Jaisalmer from Udaipur.
- Short 1 to 2 day Udaipur trip → round trip is convenient and often better value.
- Flying out of Udaipur → one way with direct drop to airport.
Which Cab to Choose for Jaipur to Udaipur?
You will be in this car for 6 to 7 hours. Comfort matters more than on a short city ride. Here is what Devika Tours recommends based on group size.
- Sedan (Swift Dzire / Etios): Best for 2 to 4 people with moderate luggage. Comfortable AC cabin for a 6-hour highway drive. Most popular choice for couples and small families. Starting at approximately ₹4,200 one way.
- Innova Crysta: Best comfort for long highway drives. Fits 5 to 7 people with luggage easily. Higher seating gives better road views. Recommended for families. Starting at approximately ₹5,700 one way.
- Tempo Traveller: For groups of 8 or more. Split the cost and it often works out cheaper per head than booking multiple sedans. Book 3 to 5 days in advance for best availability.
- Quick guide: 2 to 3 people → Sedan. 4 to 5 people → Innova. 6 or more → Tempo Traveller.

Travel Tips for Jaipur to Udaipur by Taxi
Many travelers discover these insights only after multiple trips to Rajasthan. Knowing them beforehand can make your very first visit much more rewarding.
- Leave before 6 AM. Jaipur city traffic between 8 and 10 AM adds 45 minutes easily. Early start means smooth exit and cooler driving conditions.
- Do not skip Chittorgarh. Most tourists only stop at Pushkar. Chittorgarh Fort at 230 km from Jaipur has more historical significance than almost any other stop on this route.
- Carry cash ₹500 to ₹1,000. FASTag covers most tolls but entry tickets at forts, roadside dhabas and parking are still cash-only at most stops.
- Download Google Maps offline. Signal between Chittorgarh and Nathdwara can drop. Download offline maps the night before. Your driver knows the route - this is just backup.
- Lunch near Chittorgarh. Highway dhabas between Chittorgarh and Nathdwara serve excellent dal baati churma. Ask your Devika Tours driver - they eat here regularly and know the best one.
- Book 2 to 3 days ahead in peak season. October to March is peak Rajasthan season. Experienced drivers on this route fill up fast. Contact Devika Tours at least 48 to 72 hours ahead during this period.
