Overview

This tour offers you a perfect whisk of majestic forts, the unending beauty of the Thar Desert, rich culture and heritage, mystical lakes and so much more. Jaisalmer is nestled in the heart of the Thar Desert with history sewn into its fabric and sand dunes that make it uniquely attractive. Listen to the stories buried in the walls of the 'Golden Fort' by the generations of people who still continue to live there and set off on the journey to witness the vastness of the unending Thar Desert while riding a camel as the sun gently splashes its golden lights with the hue of pink giving way to the sky full of stars. Jaisalmer is a place full of colours and light; a place to breathe the richness of culture that it holds.
