Not for four cities plus a desert night — most of the length comes from genuine distance, not padding. See the Route & Distances section above for the honest breakdown.
A domestic flight, included in the package — about 1.5 hours, far more comfortable than the road option after 11 days of travel.
Yes — see our separate 8 Day Rajasthan Tour with Jaisalmer (no Udaipur) or 10 Day Rajasthan Luxury Tour (no Jaisalmer) if you’d rather focus on three cities.
Day 8, from the desert camp to Udaipur, at around 9 hours including a stop at the Ranakpur Jain temples. Every other leg is under 7 hours.
The same style of Sam sand dunes camp, yes, though it sits in the middle of this longer circuit rather than near the end.
October to March — see the Best Time to Visit section above; it matters across all four cities and the desert night on a trip this length.
