How
to reach Jodhpur
By Air
Jodhpur is connected by flights to Delhi, Mumbai, Jaipur
and Udaipur at least thrice a week. The airport is 5
km from the city centre and auto rickshaw or taxis are
available for the ride into town. Fix the price before
getting into the auto/taxi and bargain hard! You could
also have your travel agent to get a car to meet you
on arrival or have your hotel send you a pick up.
By Train
Jodhpur has direct rail connections with many important
cities, notably Delhi, Ahmedabad, Mumbai and Varanasi.
The city is connected directly or indirectly to many
places in the state and to important destinations in
the neighbouring states of Gujarat and Delhi. Trains
available are in the express, superfast and mail categories.
By Road
The national and state highways that connect Jodhpur
to Delhi, Jaipur, Udaipur, Ajmer and Ahmedabad are well
maintained. Almost all rented cars and jeeps in India
come with a chauffeur, so if you want to see the country
and the weather is right, coming in to Jodhpur by road
may be a good idea. State roadways buses and private
bus services run air-conditioned coaches and regular
buses on most routes. But the roads connecting Jodhpur
to smaller destinations like Barmer and Pokhran may
not be very good. Key distances – Delhi - 597
km; Udaipur – 260 km and Jaipur – 335 km.
