This Fort is established by the descendants of Lord Krishna. Jaisalmer Fort is in the centre of the city. The Golden Fort is an 870-year-old living fort where 4000 people live inside. We will explore The king and Queens Palace And the beautiful streets inside the fort.
Gadisar Lake was the only source of water. With beautiful architecture a lot of movie's shooting had been done there. Gadisar Lake is a man-made lake that was built during 14th Century by the king Maharwal Gadsi Singh. The lake was constructed to store water which later used to be supplied to the whole town of Jaisalmer. the Gadsisar lake is surrounded by artistically carved Chattris, Temples, Shrines, and Ghats. Its charm lies in the fact that it was the only source of water for the Jaisalmer city in the olden days.
Nathmal Haveli is a Gem. A puzzle itself. Nathmal ki Haveli, Jaisalmer is a late 19th century architecture that was once used to be the Prime Minister's house. It is famous for its extraordinary architecture and is considered to be the best in Jaisalmer. Apparently, there is an interesting story behind it. The grandeur structure is hard work of two brothers, Hathi and Laalu. They both started with different facets of the building simultaneously. As a result, the left and right wing of the building is same but not identical. The scriptures made on the Haveli were never seen by the architect brothers in real life and were engraved by descriptions from the people who had seen it.
Patwa haveli is The most beautiful palace in jaisalmer. Build For Billionaire Jain Traders. Patwon Ki Haveli is made of Jaisalmer sandstone, these are adorned with jaalis and elaborate façades. The most skilful stonework is done on the outside, since they were a show of wealth more than anything else. The biggest and the most ornate of the havelis is the Patwon-ki-Haveli, a set of five houses adjacent to each other, built by five Jain brothers in the first half of the 19th century. These were the five sons of Guman Chand, a trader in textiles and precious metals.
Haveli of Diwan Salam Singh. Most cruel prime minister of jaisalmer riyasat ever.

Sameer was a wonderful guide and I learned so much history from him. He is very accommodating to your wishes on the tour.
Sameer explained the history and the fort well. He has good knowledge and showed us everything historical with its importance. Strongly recommend him for the tour.
We had a great tour with explanations of the history of the city, the culture and the religions related to it. Made us see the city in a different light.
I enjoyed the tour with Sameer. He is a good guide and knows a lot about the respective sights......
The guide was very nice, speaking very good English and being knowledgeable. He made the tour fun. The reason I don't give 5 stars is because we spent 45 minutes in two stores (one for scarves and another for sheets) which were not included in the program and we were not interested in. I think if he had asked us beforehand if we would like to check/buy things from the shops we would have said no. Nonetheless I recommend his tour and you will have fun.
Sameer was an amazing guide. He was the best tour guide we have had so far on our trip. His English was perfect, and he was very charming, funny and interesting. Highly recommend his walking tour.
Sameer was a really good guide and made the tour super interesting for us, with a lot of facts and details about Jaisalmer history. You can feel that he loves his job.
This tour was great, especially because Sameer Khan is the best guide we had in India, he speaks very good english and has a huge knowledge about the city of Jaisalmer, he is very friendly and always took the necessary time to explain everything in detail and answered all our questions we had. He explained the history of Jaisalmer Fort, he knows everything about the iconic sandstone architecture with its unique carvings. Make sure you get Sameer as your guide in Jaisalmer for your next visit, he is truly the best guide for your discovery of the Golden City
