The DIY deep-dive

DIY route options

The classic route Base around Mount Abu and run the standard 2-day plan - the easiest, most dependable version of the trip.
Group it by area Cluster the sights by area - the old town and bazaars in one block, the outskirts (forts, gardens, museums) in another - so you are not crossing the city twice.

What most travellers miss

  • Visit in October to March - outside that window, heat or crowds make it far less pleasant.
  • Group your sightseeing by area so you are not criss-crossing the city all day.
  • Keep one meal slot for the local food - the bazaars and street eats are half the experience.
  • Start the big sights early to beat the crowds and the midday heat.

Where to base yourself

Mount Abu The main base - most stays, food and transport, and the easiest to reach.

DIY is the main way - this is the upgrade
