Jaipur, the Pink City of Rajasthan, is the best-known stop on the Golden Triangle with Delhi and Agra. The distance is short, so you can go by train or by air depending on how much time you want to spend on the way.

Delhi to Jaipur by Train

Trains connect several Delhi stations (New Delhi, Old Delhi, Delhi Sarai Rohilla and Delhi Cantt) with Jaipur Junction, the main station in the city centre. Departure stations differ by train, so check the station name on your ticket. Journey times, fares and availability depend on the service, so look at the current schedule and book on the IRCTC website or app.

Daytime trains offer AC Chair Car (CC) and Executive Chair Car (EC) seats. Overnight and long-distance services have AC sleeper classes (1A, 2A, 3A) and the non-AC Sleeper class (SL), which is the cheapest and can be hot and dusty in summer.

Delhi to Jaipur by Flight

IndiGo flies from Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL) to Jaipur International Airport (JAI), and the flight time shown for the morning departure at 07:40 is 1 hour.[1] The flight covers about 241 km as the crow flies.[1] The lowest fare IndiGo listed for 16 and 18 October 2026 was ₹3,851.[1]

Delhi's airport is about 16 km from the main city, and the Airport Express, app-based taxis and bus shuttles connect it to the centre.[1] Jaipur's airport is about 10 km from the city, with taxis outside.[1] Add the time for the airport trip and security when you compare it with the train.

Tips for Traveling from Delhi to Jaipur

  • Book trains early: Fast daytime services and AC classes fill up first.
  • Choose the right station: Delhi has several major stations in different parts of the city, so double-check which one your train uses.
  • Arrival in Jaipur: Rickshaws and taxis wait outside Jaipur Junction. A ride-hailing app such as Uber or Ola helps you see the fare before you set off.
  • Summer heat: From April to June carry plenty of water if you travel in a non-AC class.
