I prefer carrying minimal luggage when the trip involves moving around as packing and unpacking exhaust me. A good pair of shoes for walking around forts and cities and 3 comfortable pairs of clothing and enough water reservoir to last through the car journeys should do.

Things to keep while traveling

  • A pair of shoes
  • 3 pairs of clothing
  • Enough water for the long car journeys

A phone and cash are the basics. In case you’re from another country, keep your passport handy. Besides, Rajasthan is, in general, a very tourist-friendly place and you must not worry about much.
