Rajasthan has so much more to offer-wildlife parks and bird's sanctuaries, pilgrimage centers and hill stations. And a nature of hospitality that belongs to the cultural tradition of the land. No wonder tourism is rajasthan's largest (and most ecologically sound) industry.
It is easy to see why rajasthan should invite investments in tourism for it is one of the most easily connected and strategically located for the purpose.

Train services have air-conditioned berths. Both day and overnight services link most towns. in addition there is the luxury palace on wheels tour in a vestibuled,airconditioned train that connects most major tourism centers with overnight links, with the day reserved for sightseeing and excursions.
There are airports with services at jaipur, Jodhpur and Udaipur. At other centers, there are airports though scheduled services have still to take off. However, private aircraft can be chartered for corporate and tourism purposes, and helicopters are also available in season.
However, most visitors enjoy at least some of the USP of rajasthan -elephant and camel rides, camel safaris into the desert and horse and jeep safaris into the wilderness.
