Hawa Mahal private tour: why a car or tuk-tuk of your own helps
A Hawa Mahal private tour suits the way the palace is laid out. The pink street facade is what most people photograph, but the visitor entrance sits behind it, and the next sights, the City Palace and Jantar Mantar, lie a short ride away in the old city.
The options below take 4 to 8 hours, plus one 8 to 12 hour day trip from Delhi. Prices are the "from" prices per person as of November 2026. For the Hawa Mahal itself, a press report from 30 December 2025 listed 600 INR for foreign adults from January 2026.
