Situated in the centre of Rajasthan, Jodhpur offers many options when hiring a car with driver. From here you can head in many directions and explore the wonders of the province. There are also numerous day excursions than can be made using Jodhpur as your base. And don"t forget the attractions of the Blue City itself.
Our website helps you compare prices for car with driver hire in Jodhpur, and using the list below you can look at different companies like Savaari Car Rentals on Nav Chowkia Market and Jodphur Car Rentals on Paota Circle.
There are around 30 companies offering car with driver rental in Jodhpur. It"s impossible to say how many vehicles there are for hire as many drivers are single operators who rely on the travel agents to advertise their services. While it might seem odd to use a travel agency this is how services work in India and you won"t pay any more than if you went to a car rental agency. For multi day trips a small Indica or Maruti vehicle you are looking at paying around Rs 10 per km (in real terms this means approx. 7km for €1). Larger Toyota Innova vehicles will cost around Rs15+ per kilometre. Remember that when doing a one way trip you will also have to pay for the vehicle to do the return trip. Extras like driver accommodation may be added to your quote.
A number of companies offer very similar services so it"s good to shop around. The local definition of luxury is something like a Ford Fiesta, and in India it"s rare to find big expensive cars like Mercedes outside of Delhi and Mumbai.
Your driver is an essential part of your trip and will also be your guide. You can expect him to speak good English and be experienced in visiting the places on your itinerary. While it"s sometimes easy to veer towards the cheapest companies, the most expensive quotes will usually have a more experienced driver who will entertain on the trip and not drive like Michael Schumacher.

Tipping is a regular part of the service industry in India but you should only tip for good service. A tip of €3 per day for a multi day trip is considered good.
If a problem occurs them immediately speak to the rental company. It"s important that they"re informed of what has happened. For example if you break down in the desert then it"s reasonable to allow some time to get the vehicle fixed and running again. But if this turns into more than a few hours then ask your rental company what they will do about it.
When you have a car with a driver you have the opportunity to travel in a variety of directions. It"s also possible to be flexible with your itinerary and hire a car with driver for a set number of days and designated end date. Then you can be flexible with how long you stay in each place. From Jodhpur you can hire a car with driver to explore different areas of Rajasthan.
Jodhpur"s fort is arguably the most impressive in India. Perched on top of a mountain it was built in 1458 and has never been taken by force. From the top you have glorious views onto the blue houses of the old city. The blue city is one of the nicest places to stay in India and people watch as the day goes by. Your car with driver can take you up to the city"s other main attractions, the Umaid Bhawan Palace and Jaswant Thada.
Rather than drive directly to either of these towns you can form a neat triangle by first visiting Bundi and / or Pushkar. Bundi (5 hours) is a quiet rural town where tropical and desert climates meet. Half the time you"re looking at red earth, the other half at palm trees overhanging the road. Admire the well preserved 19th century architecture, haggle over peculiar antiques, and enjoy the tranquillity of streets which haven’t been overtaken by motorised traffic. From here you can travel south to Udaipur (4 hours).
Pushkar is one of India"s famous old cities and is the venue of an annual 5 day camel fair. Surrounded by lakes and mountains it was once a religious centre of India and it"s said that when Lord Shiva"s wife died he shed so many tears it created a holy pond in Pushkar. Pushkar is 3 hours from Jodphur and from here it is 2 hours further north to Jaipur.
Jodhpur is on the edge of the Thar desert and from here you can go deep into the scorched red landscape of this famous desert. It"s a barren spectacular drive to the historic town of Jaisalmer, which is a launch point for camel rides into the sand dunes. Jaisalmer is poorly connected by transport so you probably won"t want to finish your tour with car with driver here. You can do a northern loop of Rajasthan and finish at Jaipur or head back to Jodhpur (4-5 hours)
