Expect to walk through atmospheric lanes as you visit famous vendors that attract long lines of people waiting for their food. Sample dishes like Jaipur dal kachori (savory puffed pastries), tikki chole (potato patty with spiced chickpea curry), lassi (yoghurt drink), petha (soft candy), Jaipuri kulfi (traditional ice cream), rabdi (milk dessert), and beverages. Your guide has chosen only vendors that pass strict standards for quality, safety, and hygiene. Food tastings, rickshaw ride, bottled water, and hand sanitizer are included.
