  • Carry cash in Indian Rupees for smaller vendor purchases and temple donations, though major historical sites and mid-range restaurants accept digital payments or cards.
  • Hire an authorized local guide at Jaswant Thada to fully appreciate the intricate marble architecture and royal cenotaph history.
  • Bargain politely for auto-rickshaw fares around the Blue City or use pre-agreed metered rates to avoid overpaying.
