Delhi — Indira Gandhi Intl (DEL) → Udaipur — Maharana Pratap (UDR)
IndiGo · non-stop 1 h 20
Part of the tour package. Ask the operator for the PNR before you fly — the domestic terminal is on the ticket, not the same as the T3 you land in.
Where you sleep
One card per night stop. The tour hotels are booked by the operator and now named; the last two nights, Agra and the airport, are still open.
Windsor Palace, Janpath, New Delhi 110 001
4 nights, paid. The night of 29 Oct is included deliberately — the room is ready at the 05:10 arrival.
23–25 Lal Ghat, behind Jagdish Temple, Udaipur 313001
One night. A 17th-century haveli on Lal Ghat, on the lake shore just north of the City Palace — the rooftop restaurant looks straight across Pichola.
One night. A 17th-century royal hunting lodge in the village, under Elephant Hill.
Circuit House Road, Jodhpur 342006
One night. Built in 1927 for Maharaj Ajit Singh — younger brother of the Umaid Singh who built Umaid Bhawan Palace, by the same English architect, on the same Circuit House Road. Two different hotels, 4 km apart: this is the smaller one, ~2 km east of the clock tower, part of the Ajit Bhawan estate. Phone found online, not from the booking.
Motisar Road, Ganahera, Pushkar 305022
One night. A modern palace-style hotel out on the Motisar Road side, 2.5 km from the Brahma temple and the ghats — the car, not your feet, gets you to the sunset. Not to be confused with Hotel Umaid Mahal in Jaipur, which owns the obvious web address. Phone and address found online, not from the booking.
One night, the night of Dhanteras. Confirmed: the Raja Park property — Govind Marg, 3.4 km from the City Palace.
A bed next to IGI before the 07:20 departure. Not booked yet.
The tour
Six days, private car & driver, Udaipur → Agra, 2–7 Nov. Includes the Delhi → Udaipur flight; sightseeing per the day pages. Services end on arrival in Agra on 7 Nov.

Still to book
Good to know
Emergency
The card for when something goes wrong. The numbers below are verified; everything marked to fill in is still missing and has to be filled in before departure. The offline edition prints this as one page — worth folding into a wallet, because none of it works on a dead phone.
India — free from any phone
One number for police, fire and ambulance, 24 h, every state. Connects from a locked phone and with no balance on the SIM. Start here.
The older direct line; still answered where 112 has not fully taken over.
Free state ambulance service — running in Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Delhi. (102 is the separate free maternity ambulance, not this.)
Fire, gas leak, explosion.
Ministry of Tourism, 24 h, free, in English and eleven other languages besides Hindi. Advice, and it will alert the authorities for you. Short code 1363 works too.
National cybercrime helpline. Call within the hour if money leaves a card or an account — the sooner it is reported, the more can be frozen. Report online too.
Embassy of the Republic of Poland, New Delhi
50-M Shantipath, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi 110 021 — open in Maps
newdelhi.wk.dyzurny@msz.gov.pl
After hours, for a real emergency only: accident, hospital, arrest, death, missing person, passport lost with a flight to catch. Not for visas.
nowedelhi.konsul@msz.gov.pl
Weekdays 14:00–15:30 (office 09:00–16:00). Also +91 11 4149 6992 and +91 11 4149 6975.
Monday–Friday 09:00–16:00.
Delhi is our post for the entire trip: its consular district covers Delhi NCR, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh — every place on the itinerary. There is no closer Polish office in Rajasthan or Agra.
A lost passport means a police report first (the FIR), then the consulate for an emergency travel document. Bring the report, a photo, and any copy of the old passport.
This trip
The 2–7 Nov car, driver and hotels. The programme we were sent carries no name and no number — ask for a 24 h contact before flying and write it here.
Mobile number, taken on the first morning in Udaipur. The single most useful number of the six road days.
Delhi · 29 Oct – 2 Nov. Windsor Palace, Janpath, New Delhi 110 001
Udaipur · 2–3 Nov. 23–25 Lal Ghat, behind Jagdish Temple, Udaipur 313001
Jodhpur · 4–5 Nov. Circuit House Road, Jodhpur 342006
Pushkar · 5–6 Nov. Motisar Road, Ganahera, Pushkar 305022
Udaipur, Narlai, Jodhpur, Pushkar, Jaipur — names and numbers are with the operator. Rawla Narlai is named but has no number in the papers.
Nights of 7–9 and 9 Nov — not booked yet. Add the numbers the moment they are.
Rebooking and irregularities on LO 071 / LO 072. Booking ref WI7F82.
Each of the four of you
Seven lines per person. What each line means is spelled out under the cards.
- Mobile in India
- The number the others call. Roaming or the local SIM — whichever is actually switched on.
- Insurer
- Company name on the policy.
- Policy no.
- The number a hospital will ask for.
- Insurer 24 h line
- The assistance centre, not the sales line. Call it before a private hospital admits you — most policies require it.
- EHIC / EKUZ
- Does not work here: the European card covers the EU/EEA and Switzerland only. Travel insurance is the whole of your cover in India. Write "n/a" unless a policy says otherwise.
- Blood type & allergies
- Blood group, drug allergies, chronic conditions, regular medication.
- Card-blocking hotline
- Your own bank's 24 h number, written in international format — the in-app one is useless with a stolen phone.
Worth remembering
- Passport and e-Visa (ETA): a photo on every phone and a printed copy, carried apart from the passport itself.
- Card or phone gone: your own bank first (above), then 1930 if money has already moved.
- Private hospital: call the insurer's 24 h line before you are admitted, or the bill may not be covered.
- This card is worth nothing on a dead phone. Print the page and put it in a wallet.
