Duration

Where
Jaisalmer district, routes by arrangement
Ideal for
Travellers who want the Thar without a single other group in it

We built this for guests who told us the standard safari felt like a queue. It uses dune systems with no tourism infrastructure at all, reached by track rather than road, and a camel handler from a village rather than an operator.

There is no dinner theatre and no camp. There is a fire, food cooked on it, and several hours in which nothing at all is arranged.

Highlights

  • Dune systems with no infrastructure on them
  • One vehicle, one guide, your group only
  • A fire and food cooked on it
  • Hours with nothing arranged

Price on request

Experiences are quoted per group, so the price depends on your party size and the day you want.
