Tour description

Step into the vibrant heart of Jaipur’s gemstone world with me!

This isn’t just a walk — it’s a journey into centuries-old traditions, royal stories, and the sparkling treasures that have made Jaipur famous. 

We’ll stroll through the colorful lanes of Johari Bazaar, explore workshops where skilled artisans cut and polish stones, and visit hidden markets where traders have been dealing in gems for generations. 

Along the way, I’ll share insider tips on how to identify quality gemstones, avoid common tourist traps, and even get the best deals. You’ll see the art of gemstone cutting up close, hear fascinating legends behind famous stones, and enjoy chai breaks with local traders. 

Whether you’re a curious traveler or a serious buyer, this walk will give you a deeper connection to Jaipur’s glittering heritage
