What to expect
Hotel Fifu
This is the assembly point of your tour. If you opted for hotel pickup we will bring you here before the start. Quick introduction to the team and review of the itinerary. You can also store luggage on our premises if you so desire.
Visit in two authentic Thar Desert villages. You will reach there by jeep. Within just few minutes from your arrival the news will spread through the village that a guest arrived. Children start approaching curiously and shouting greetings, women look shyly from far away while men welcome you in their village and ask about your life and family. Because of the remoteness of these villages, locals are not used to having visitors hence it is always a special occasion when guests arrive. You will spend some time walking around the villages with some chai breaks. After that you will have a chance to taste a traditional lunch prepared for you from local ingredients in one of the families houses. Don't forget to capture those amazing moments on photographs but please ask people before making their portraits.
Fifu Camel Safaris
When your visit in the two villages is complete, you'll transfer to another point for the desert safari, where camels will be already waiting for you. Watching the sunset from the dunes is an unforgettable experience. As the sun sets, the sky and sands change colours to create one brilliant spectacle. The air becomes chillier and it seems as if the whole desert is preparing for the night. As the night emerges you can clearly see the starry sky without any light pollution. You will reach back to Jaisalmer by 10 PM.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
