How it works
Individuals near the approach road to Mehrangarh Fort sell entry tickets that are either counterfeit or for a different entry level than claimed, resulting in tourists being turned away at the actual fort gate. Some sell "combined tickets" for fort plus museum that the fort office does not recognize.
How it works
Tour operators in the areas near Jodhpur and en route to Osian offer camel safari and overnight camping packages where the quoted price changes after the deposit is paid, with "extras" such as dinner, bonfire, and blankets added to the final invoice. Some operators describe basic desert camps as "luxury" on promotional materials.
