Jaipur Travel and Transport: Picture taken from the Amber FortThe transport infrastructure within Jaipur is well developed and many people choose to travel into the city using long-haul bus transport from other nearby Indian cities, such as New Delhi. Jaipur also features its own airport, which lies close to the city centre and offers a mixture of both domestic and international airlines.

Within Jaipur, the city's main train station offers plenty of intercity transport, allowing you to travel to many parts of India with relative ease. Within central Jaipur itself, both auto rickshaws and taxi transport are easy to find, although many tourists prefer walking, particularly around the colourful bazaar areas. The main travel options are shown here.
