Amber Fort reviews

A must visit place if you’re visiting Jaipur. The best fort/palace to see. Very well maintained. Early evening is a good time to visit so you can witness the sunset as well as the night light show. It’s better to take a tour guide to know more about the history of the place. Ample parking space where you can get tour guides and jeeps to go up to the fort.

This is one of the most beautiful forts in jaipur. I personally enjoyed visiting this fort there is a park for resting and having some snacks if you like there is a food court and many shopping carts. You will surely be a huge crowd at this place but one will still enjoy it because of it's beauty and the beautiful views around the place 😀

One of the most amazing places to visit in Jaipur. Though it's the biggest Fort, it's worth the walk and visit. If in jaipur, this is one of the place u should visit. The view from the top is breath taking. The work on pillars, walls, ceilings are praise worthy. Loved this place.

A must-visit spot in Jaipur, it's highly recommended to take a guided tour here as the fort has many hidden secrets. Guides will also direct you to the best spots for great photos. The ideal time to visit is in the evening, just before sunset, so you can enjoy the fort's stunning illumination after your tour.
