Bike on Rent in Jodhpur

Jodhpur, the Blue City of Rajasthan, rises around the huge Mehrangarh Fort and a maze of old lanes painted in shades of blue. Cabs and autos can struggle in the narrow streets of the old town, while a compact bike or scooter slips through easily. On TransRentals you can compare two-wheelers from local vendors in Jodhpur, pick your dates and book online. Check the listings for your dates, since the tourist season can make popular vehicles scarce. ## Sights to ride between Mehrangarh Fort is the highlight for most visitors, with Jaswant Thada not far away. The Clock Tower and Sardar Market are lively for shopping and food, and Umaid Bhawan Palace is another well known landmark. Mandore Gardens, the old capital of the Marwar region, is a pleasant half-day stop. A bike helps you combine these in a flexible way, starting early before the heat builds. ## Riding in the old city and beyond Lanes around the Clock Tower and below the fort are narrow, crowded and often shared with pedestrians, cows and handcarts. Ride slowly, use your horn lightly and be careful on steep, uneven slopes near the fort. Parking is limited in the old town, so use marked areas or ask your hotel. Summers are very hot, so wear a helmet, carry water, use sunglasses and avoid long rides at midday. Stay on regular roads and avoid expressways on a two-wheeler. If you plan to leave the city, ask the vendor whether outstation use is allowed. ## Scooter or geared bike A gearless scooter is the easiest choice for old city lanes and short hops between sights, and many riders prefer it for stop and go traffic. A geared motorcycle or a cruiser-style bike appeals to riders who enjoy the Rajasthan roads and want more power. Choose a type you handle with confidence. At pickup, check the brakes, tyres, lights and horn, take photos of the vehicle and note the vendor's contact. ## Documents and booking You need a valid driving licence for the vehicle class you rent and a government photo ID. Foreign visitors should ask the vendor which licence documents are accepted. Deposit and minimum age are as per vendor. Compare vehicles, choose your dates and book online.
