Desert Experience
Why Choose This 5-Day Tour?
This itinerary works well for travellers who want to see the western side of Rajasthan without committing to a long state-wide tour.
You get a combination of Heritage + Local Markets + Forts + Desert + Cultural Experiences.
Jodhpur introduces you to the historic atmosphere of the Blue City, while Jaisalmer brings golden sandstone architecture and the unique character of a desert town.
The Sam Sand Dunes experience adds a completely different side to the trip with sunset views, optional camel rides, jeep safaris, folk performances and traditional food.
The schedule also leaves some room for personal time, photography and shopping instead of filling every hour with sightseeing.
Best Time to Visit
For comfortable sightseeing and desert activities,
October to March is generally preferred.
Winter months are especially suitable for spending
time outdoors in Jaisalmer and around the dunes.
Summer can be considerably hotter, so travellers
visiting during this period should plan sightseeing
during cooler parts of the day.
