I paid Rs. 1300 per day to the tour guide in Pushkar, including his bike petrol expense.
All I have to do is to be a pillion rider and he will drive his bike.
Kishore introduced Vijay (98283 97361) – a tour guide.
Vijay and I started the journey around the afternoon by first visiting Ajmer.
At Ajmer the following places we visited:
- Soni Ji Ki Nasiya Jain Temple
- Akbar’s Fort & Museum
- Anant Jain Lassi Corner
- Khandelwal Chaat Bhandar
- Chamunda Mata Temple
- Aloo Baba
Note: Soni Ji Ki Nasiya/Akbar’s Fort entry ticket for myself was purchased by me. Lassi and Kachori‘s expenses were paid by me too.
Second Day we started the journey in the early morning hours and visited the following places in Pushkar:
- Panch Kund
- Neelkanth Mahadev Temple
- Buddha/Shiv Pushkar
- Badar Mata Temple
- Madhya/Vishnu Pushkar
- Lomas Rishi’s Ashram
Note: All the above places can be covered in a single day if you start the journey early in the morning hours.
I thought of hiring an Activa which costs Rs. 300/500 per day maybe and petrol cost also Rs. 300 per day but then alone it was a little difficult to reach all above said places, especially Madhya/Vishnu Pushkar and Lomas Rishi’s Ashram. Thus, I opt for a local tour guide who is well aware of all the places including hidden ones and I as a pillion rider reach all said places with comfort. Thanks to Kishore. And thanks to Vijay too who is a good biker and does not drive carelessly. Highly recommended. Vijay is good at speaking English and a few other foreign languages.
