Driving Tips
This is the Jaipur to Ajmer direction — the same road as Ajmer to Jaipur, driven the other way, so the stops below are measured from Jaipur
Leave Jaipur by 6 AM to clear the city before the morning build-up — on a 135 km run the hour saved at the start is the hour you are not driving in the dark at the end
Plan a stop every two to three hours; the food stops below are listed by distance from Jaipur
135 km of six-lane highway with no hill section and no difficult junction — this is one of the easier drives in Rajasthan
Kishangarh at 27 km is worth a stop for the Phool Mahal palace on Gundalao lake and the marble yards, and almost nobody stops
Pushkar is 15 km off the Ajmer end rather than on this road — if you want both, do Pushkar before you set off rather than as a detour

The road and the distance are identical at 135 km, so the drive time is much the same at 2.5-3 hours. What changes is where the congestion falls: leaving Jaipur you clear its outskirts first, and you arrive into Ajmer at whatever that city's traffic is doing when you get there.
Jaipur Ajmer Road (15 km) and Dudu (60 km) are the practical stops, and the distances given are measured from Jaipur rather than from the other end — a point worth making, because every listing of this route online measures them the other way. Plan a break every two to three hours.
Yes, and on this direction it is worth asking specifically. A one-way drop is cheaper than a round trip when you are not coming back, and because we run the Ajmer to Jaipur direction regularly there is a reasonable chance of pairing your trip with a return run — which is the cheapest a one-way ever gets. Call 7668570551 and ask what is going your way.
Around 6 AM, which clears Jaipur before the morning build-up. On a 135 km day the hour you save at the start is the hour you are not driving in the dark at the far end.
Broadly yes — the plazas are the same barriers and most charge per crossing — but a return-journey rate applies at some plazas within the same day, and a plaza can occasionally be one-directional. Our toll-cost page for this corridor lists the plazas with the car and SUV figures. On a fare booked with us the toll is charged at actuals with the receipts available, so you pay what the road charged rather than an estimate.
Same road, same 135 km, and the same 3 stages in the opposite order — the detailed guide for the other direction is at /travel-by-car/ajmer-to-jaipur. The one real difference is that Kishangarh to Ajmer is your last stage here and your first stage there, which changes what the hardest hour of the day is.
135 km by road, and 2.5-3 hours behind the wheel. The route divides into 3 stages, the longest being Jaipur to Dudu at 60 km. The longest stage is not the slowest one: Kishangarh to Ajmer covers 27 km in 30 min, which is where the hours actually go.
No — and that is the useful answer here rather than a dodge. All 3 stages of this route are graded excellent: Jaipur to Dudu (60 km), Dudu to Kishangarh (48 km) and Kishangarh to Ajmer (27 km). There is no stretch that needs a different kind of driving from the rest, which is why 135 km takes 2.5-3 hours and not longer. The one place the clock slows is Kishangarh to Ajmer, and that is traffic rather than road.
Kishangarh to Ajmer — 27 km in 30 min, which is the slowest average on the route. Six-lane NH-48 out of the Aravalli gap. Kishangarh is India's marble capital and the roadside dust genuinely turns white. Jaipur to Dudu is the longest stage at 60 km and takes 1-1.25 hours, so distance and time are not in proportion on this corridor. Knowing which stage is slow is what lets a departure time be chosen properly rather than guessed at.
Yes. 135 km each way at 2.5-3 hours means roughly 270 km and double that driving time, so a 6 AM departure leaves a useful day at the other end and still gets you home. What it does not leave is slack: add a long lunch and a sightseeing stop and the return runs into the dark. If the day is going to be tight, the stop to cut is the one on the way out rather than the one on the way back — Jaipur Ajmer Road is better on a relaxed return than a rushed start.
