Jaisalmer Desert Safari Tour Package | Jaisalmer Tour Packages

Overview

If you are a first-time visitor to Jaisalmer, then you will love this Jaisalmer desert camp package. The highlight of this package is staying in a desert camp in Sam sand dunes. It will be a luxury camp pitched right in the middle of the sprawling Thar Desert in Jaisalmer. You will be surrounded by tall sand dunes and can enjoy the scenic Thar Desert landscape that you have only seen in documentary films and movies. The desert safari will be on a camel’s back, and you can experience the vastness of the desert and its wildlife.

This tour is also a cultural tour of Jaisalmer, where you will visit one of the largest forts in all of Rajasthan, the Jaisalmer Golden Fort. This fort is not only a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but a favourite movie location. Many Bengali movies were shot at this fort, and one of the most famous among them is Sonar Kella by Satyajit Ray. In fact, the name of this fort is Golden Fort, which is the English translation of Sonar Kella. You can visit the mansions inside the fort and the innumerable temples made of white marble. The fort is so massive that it will take almost 3-4 hours to fully explore its various parts.

Our Jaisalmer camping packages are the best to experience the exotic beauty of the desert region of Jaisalmer. It will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience for you and also a memorable one. Though this tour is short, it will leave a sketch of the desert landscape of Rajasthan in your mind. The Rajasthani hospitality, campfire dinner, camel rides and sunrise views of the golden sand dunes are things that you will remember for a lifetime.
