  • Get aroundAutorickshaws (tuk-tuks) are probably the best way to reach places in the outskirts of Jaipur such as Amber Fort or Galtaji, where getting a taxi or Uber/Ola to go back to the city may be tricky.
  • Get aroundHiring an autorickshaw for a whole day to go to Amber Fort, Tiger Fort, Jal Mahal, and other areas costs anywhere between ₹450 to ₹550 (as of 2018).
  • Get aroundThe autorickshaw wallas will tell you to take the slip from the police booths.
