Rajasthan Desert Camp Experience

6 days / 5 nights Price on Request Adventure

Overview

A desert-focused Rajasthan trip built around an overnight stay at a luxury desert camp near Jaisalmer, with camel safaris and dune sunsets alongside the region's forts.

Why This Journey

For travellers whose priority is the Thar Desert experience itself — camps, camel rides, dune sunsets — this route gives it more time than a standard multi-city circuit would.

Highlights

  • An overnight stay at a desert camp near the Sam sand dunes
  • A camel safari at sunset
  • Jodhpur's Mehrangarh Fort
  • Jaisalmer's living sandstone fort

Day by Day

  • Day 1

    Arrive Jodhpur

    Drive or short flight into Jodhpur, the Blue City. Afternoon at leisure to settle in, with the option of an early evening walk through the lanes below Mehrangarh Fort as the old town's blue-washed houses catch the light.

  • Day 2

    Jodhpur Sightseeing

    A full day centred on Mehrangarh, one of India's most dramatic hilltop forts, followed by Jaswant Thada's white marble cenotaph and a wander through the spice and textile stalls of the old clock-tower market.

  • Day 3

    Onward to Jaisalmer

    Drive from Jodhpur to Jaisalmer (approx. 5.5–6 hours).

  • Day 4

    Jaisalmer Sightseeing

    An overnight desert camp experience in the dunes outside the city: a camel or jeep safari at sunset, a folk-music evening around the fire, and a night under some of the clearest skies in Rajasthan before returning to the city.

  • Day 5

    Jaisalmer Sightseeing

    A day back in Jaisalmer town exploring the living fort's inner lanes, along with the carved sandstone havelis of Patwon Ki Haveli, before free time in the bazaars.
