    1. Sajjangarh Monsoon Palace

      Situated just outside Udaipur, this 19th-century palace is built on top of Bansdara hills. Used as a monsoon palace and hunting lodge, its builder, Maharana Sajjan Singh, originally planned to make it an astronomical center. The plan was cancelled with Maharana Sajjan Singh's premature death. It is still an awe-inspiring sight on the Udaipur skyline and offers spectacular views of the city and the areas around.

    Amazing Panoramic views of Udaipur and the Langurs

    This was an amazing half day trip up the Sajjangarh fort. It was a must visit on our list for Udaipur, Rajasthan. We had already spent couple of days in Udaipur admiring the beauty and culture of this place. Visiting Monsoon palace took it up to another level. The palace is all about its views. Beautiful panoramic views. We went up to the top and enjoyed 360 look of Udaipur. Even though we missed the sunset because of the cloudy conditions, it was still amazing. It took us 15 minutes to get to the top from our hotel in Udaipur. The drive was all uphill but still smooth. Did not see a lot of traffic on our way. The tour driver was friendly and told us a few things about Udaipur. We were traveling with two little kids, so we were really happy to see Langurs as soon as we got out of our car. At first the kids were afraid but then we learnt of the Langurs friendly nature. We were told not to feed them and we followed instructions. Every now and then a family of Langurs would approach us and then climb back into the trees. It kept the kids excited. Once we got to the base of the palace, we could already see the white city of Udaipur and the surrounding green hills. Lots of people clicking selfies but the place was not crowded. We could get our photos. Then we went up the palace and now we could see 360. Again, beautiful views all around. It was a hot day but the breeze was helpful. We could see all the lakes and what makes Udaipur so beautiful. The palace was under construction and lots of places were locked inside. There was a projection room for the kids and they were running a movie on local animals of Rajasthan. A few pictures adorned the walls of the palace but really nothing of note. So we spent all our time outside admiring natural beauty. I am just taking one star away because the palace, especially when compared to city palace, was a bit disappointing but it still takes nothing away from the amazing views from the top. We now know the reason this palace was built for - just the views and the beautiful breeze. We also learnt, back in the 80s, James Bond movie was shot in this palace.

    Response from the operator: Hi, Thanks for leaving us such a wonderful review. We are thrilled that you loved your experience; our staff will definitely be happy to read what you wrote. We put customer experience and satisfaction as our priority, and your review reaffirms the hard work we put in every day. So thanks for your kind words and we look forward to seeing you again.

    Private Day Tour: Udaipur to Sajjangarh fort (Monsoon Palace): questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Udaipur.

    How much does Private Day Tour: Udaipur to Sajjangarh fort (Monsoon Palace) cost?

    +

    Prices start at $101 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Udaipur usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Day Tour: Udaipur to Sajjangarh fort (Monsoon Palace) take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Udaipur is not rushed.

    Is Private Day Tour: Udaipur to Sajjangarh fort (Monsoon Palace) worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Udaipur, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Day Tour: Udaipur to Sajjangarh fort (Monsoon Palace)?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Private Day Tour: Udaipur to Sajjangarh fort (Monsoon Palace) suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Day Tour: Udaipur to Sajjangarh fort (Monsoon Palace)?

    +

    Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Udaipur can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Udaipur and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Day Tour: Udaipur to Sajjangarh fort (Monsoon Palace) start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Udaipur within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Udaipur?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Udaipur experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Udaipur Sightseeing Tour Package with Guide and Private Taxi, Full-Day Private Udaipur Sightseeing Tour with optional Guide, Private Udaipur Sightseeing Tour by Tuk-Tuk or Car with Driver. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Udaipur?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Udaipur?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
