Day 7 Jaipur POI question :)
Im reading through the itenarary and this is what they have on day 7 in Jaipur:
"After a thali style lunch preceded by a puppet show, enjoy an afternoon at
leisure in Jaipur, pursuing what interests you most."
Can anyone remember what this afternoon was like? Do you have a completely free afternoon in town...or do they take the group back to the hotel first. I'm curious if we will stay in town as a group too explore or if we need to arrange in, advance, any activities we might want too do on this free afternoon. I don't mind planning additional activities as long as I have a better idea of how much time we will have free and where we will be in the area.

Here's what we did in Jaipur - https://www.mikeandjudytravel.com/2024-3India-02.htm#Jaipur
The link is to our first day in Jaipur. Follow the link at the bottom of the page to get to day 7. We went back to the hotel. I don't remember if they offered people the ability to stay in the city.
On our tour they offered to stop downtown at a jewelry store for people that wanted to shop. My wife still gets ads and thank you emails from the shop.
They offered to take you shopping as I recall. Most went back. We went with another couple to 2 jewelry stores with the local guides. Who then safely put us into cars to get us back to the hotel. I don’t recall there being an option to go back into the busy city area. And it would be difficult I think to navigate your own way back (calling a taxi etc). The street they drop you off is full of jewelry shops and you can stay as long as you like on that street. Hope this helps.
Thank you LindaMarie. If there is time, I would like to arrange to go actually tour the Palace of the Winds
Tdelliott71 we walked by Palace of the Winds as part of one morning but tour did not include going inside. I am sure the TD will help you figure out a way to visit on your free time. Just know that the hotel is a bit away from that area and a taxi will be needed. It is a bit chaotic in that area.
