Last updated: October 2026 · Method: ticket-structure research from official listings and visitor reports; the bundles change — photograph the current board on arrival (flagged for the November trip).
Jaipur sells composite monument tickets — one pass, several sites, two-day validity. The arithmetic genuinely works for some travellers and quietly fails for others. This guide runs the math honestly.
The bundles, as reported
| Bundle | Sites | Approx* |
|---|---|---|
| The monument pass | 10 sites: Amber, Albert Hall, Hawa Mahal, Isarlat, Jantar Mantar, Nahargarh, Sisodia Rani Bagh, Vidhyadhar Garden, Jaipur Metro Kala Deergha, Gandhi Vatika Museum | ₹550 Indian adult / ₹180 student; ₹1,700 foreign adult / ₹800 foreign student; valid 2 days from visit date (official OBMS board) |
| The palace bundle | City Palace + Jaigarh + Royal Gaitor cenotaphs (official) | ~₹500 Indian / ~₹1,500 foreign (official-site figure) |
*The monument-pass figures are the official OBMS board (official board, October 2026); the palace bundle is the official City Palace tariff. Boards change — verify at the counter.
Does it pay? The honest math
- For foreign visitors doing the full circuit: yes, clearly — Amber at ₹1,000 alone nearly matches the ₹1,700 pass, and Nahargarh/Jantar/Hawa at ₹600 each stack past it fast. The fee tables carry the per-site ranges.
- For Indian visitors: marginal — the per-site rates are low enough that only the heaviest itinerary justifies the pass.
- The trap: paying for sites you won’t reach — the gardens and Isarlat are the ones most passes waste (the garden sorter tells you if you’ll use them).
Where to buy
At the major monument counters (Amber and Albert Hall sell the monument pass) — not from street sellers claiming “official passes”, a documented pattern in the scams guide.
