You can go to jodhpur first. Visit Jaswant thada (1hr), Meherangadh fort (4/5 hrs), Umed bhawan palace. You will need minimum 1 day for jodhpur. Next day you can proceed to Jaisalmer. It takes 4/5 hrs to reach. On the way visit war museum (2 hrs) few kms before jaisalmer. You can visit gadisar lake, stay in tents near Sam sand dunes. Its a one of a kind experience. Do camel rides and dont miss the jeep safari early morning. Visit bada bagh, Optionally visit kuldhara ( abandoned village few centuries back). You will need minimum 1 and 1/2 days for jaisalmer. Next proceed to Bikaner, takes 5/6 hrs from jaisalmer. Junagadh fort is must visit and go to museum as well and will need 4 hrs.

it is better to see this fort during daytime to visit all the sections including a museum. I am not sure if there is a light show in the evening but the fort is more beautiful inside rather than from outside so daytime would be better. At least 3 to 4 hours may be required since there is a lot to walk around
Q:
Is it open on Sunday also ? What is the timing on Sunday day?
A:
Yes it remains open on Sunday
