Best time to goOctober to March. November to February is the comfortable window; April to June regularly passes forty degrees.
Getting aroundAutorickshaws and ride-hailing cover the city cheaply. The old walled city is walkable, though the traffic on the main bazaar streets is constant.
Local tip: Amber Fort is far better in the first hour after opening. Go straight there before the old city, and leave the palaces and observatory for the afternoon.
