Chand Baori
The place is popular for the amazing 'Boris' (step wells). The village of Abhaneri is believed to be established by the King Raja Chand. Originally Abhaneri was named as Abha Nagri, which means the city of brightness, but due to the mispronunciation of the term, it is changed to the present name.Step wells are the unique concept of India. These big tanks were used as cool places of resort and water reservoir in parched days. It was a ritual to wash hands and feet before visiting the temple. Adjoining the Chand Baori,

Impressive and very beautiful work
The well is in very good condition. With 13 floors visible above water level in December. But perhaps at another time of the year the water level is higher, but tourists are not allowed on the steps that go down. Only the first floors are accessible.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your observations! We are glad you got to witness the architectural beauty of the stepwell during your visit in December. You are exactly right—the water levels fluctuate significantly depending on the season. After the monsoon rains, the water can rise much higher, covering several of the lower tiers, whereas, in the drier months, more of the intricate masonry and the 13 levels become visible. Regarding the access to the steps: the safety and preservation of this ancient heritage site are top priorities. While we understand it is tempting to walk down those famous symmetrical stairs, the restrictions are in place to protect the structural integrity of the stone and ensure the safety of all visitors. Your Safe Touring is Our Mission…

Good expirence in Jaipur
Abhaneri (both stepwell and the Harshat Mata Temple next to the stepwell) was great and well explained by a local tour guide living there. The monkey temple is ok, even this part of the tour is not guided and the temple is quite dirty and untidy. Mr. Sandeep, the driver, did a great job taking care of me all the time and giving historical details about Jaipur city and useful tips before entering the monkey temple. Great the backoffice organization too.

Day trip to Chand Baori
A very easy trip to Abhaneri with Rakesh as my driver. Chand Baori is very much worth a visit if you are interested in architecture! Rakesh was a very helpful and safe driver.

Perfect
The driver, Naveen, was very friendly, and on time. We stopped for breakfast on the road and he dropped me off at an ATM between the two destinations because I needed one. Everything went perfectly.
Response from the operator: Bonjour Koroxx, Merci d'avoir partagé votre expérience avec nous et nous sommes heureux que vous ayez apprécié la visite avec nous et que vous ayez écrit sur notre chauffeur Naven dans cette critique. Les valeurs de notre entreprise placent la satisfaction du client au premier rang de nos priorités et nous nous engageons envers nos clients. Des clients comme vous rendent notre travail merveilleux.

A very good experience
My day trip started just in time with Rakesh picking me up at my hotel. After a quick stop at HSBC agency to withdraw some cash we headed to Abhaneri. What impressed me first was his careful driving - you’ll know what I mean when you visit India. Once in Abhaneri he suggested me to hire a local guide that I declined - the place is so small and you can read about the place in other sources. The stepwell is an impressive intricate construction and it is really in good shape. Immediately across, was the ruins of Harshat Mata, a small temple. On the way back to Jaipur, we’re stopped for chai and snacks. The drive to Monkey Temple took about one hour using an alternative way. That visit was interesting not only for the temple itself but because a group of people were celebrating a ceremony. After an hour I was back to the car. Since it was early, Rakesh suggested me to visit a place to see how rugs and paint print were made. This was disappointing because once the 5 minute tour was finished they took to the store and tryed to push me to by anything - that almost ruined my day trip. Well, Rakesh made it up to me apologizing and promised not to take anyone there again unless they look for souvenirs. This was a great day trip and this honest company will take good care of you, especially if you driver is Rakesh.
Response from the operator: Dear Niro K, Thank you for your kind feedback. As you can see from the huge amount of very positive reviews, and as previously mentioned to you in our private communication by email, we strive for provide all our guests with excellent, educational/cultural/fun/informative professional tours & experiences and time spent with us, no matter how long or short that time may be. Where we can learn from this, we would like to thank you for bringing these concerns to our attention and I can confirm I have already spoken to the team to ensure that this type of thing does not happen again. I am very grateful for your note complimenting the services and facilities of our Organisation. Positive feedback from our guests is always a strong motivation to all of us to continuously provide a high level of services to our guests. It was indeed a pleasure having you with “ Janu Private Tour’s “ and we look forward to welcoming you soon again. Kind regards, Janu Shabbir Khan Owner

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Day Trip to Abhaneri Chand Baori Stepwell from Jaipur: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Jaipur.
How much does Private Day Trip to Abhaneri Chand Baori Stepwell from Jaipur cost?
+
Prices start at $36 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Jaipur 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 Trip to Abhaneri Chand Baori Stepwell from Jaipur take?
+
Plan for about 12 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 Jaipur is not rushed.
Is Private Day Trip to Abhaneri Chand Baori Stepwell from Jaipur worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Jaipur, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Day Trip to Abhaneri Chand Baori Stepwell from Jaipur?
+
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 Trip to Abhaneri Chand Baori Stepwell from Jaipur suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Day Trip to Abhaneri Chand Baori Stepwell from Jaipur?
+
Around 4 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 Jaipur 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 Jaipur and add a light layer if any part of the 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Day Trip to Abhaneri Chand Baori Stepwell from Jaipur 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 Jaipur 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 Jaipur?
+
On Outty we rank every Jaipur experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Sunrise Taj Mahal Tour from Delhi By Car -All inclusive, Private Jaipur Full One Day Tour In Pink City With Guide, Private Full Day Jaipur Sightseeing Tour By Tuk Tuk. 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 Jaipur?
+
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 Jaipur?
+
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.
