Fantastic Experience. 10/10 Recommend

Phenomenal experience. Everyone, from Mr. Soni to the guide Mr. Shakthi and the driver Mr. Shiva provided exemplary service. Everyone was kind, courteous, and responsive to our needs. It was a phenomenal way to see and understand the history of Jaisalmer. Would absolutely do again.

A great Thar desert life experience with the locals

Awesome; was great to book this tour with peace of mind and good communication. The whole experience was ace! We wanted to change from under the stars to on site room last minute and they made the switch with no issues and provided spare sheets for me and my friend. Om was great

Best Jaiselmer experience

I had an amazing experience of the golden city Jaiselmer thanks to Mr Om Ji. Good english speaker and very knowledgeable of everything in and around Jaiselmer. His taxi service is safe, reliable and flexible. I can highly recommend using his services if you would like an unforgettable experience.

I returned back into...

I returned back into Jaisalmer city from a desert tour, checked into my hotel, and Prakash's driver came to pick me up at the hotel. His English wasn't great, which normally isn't an issue, but when he dropped me at the old fort and said "go into fort," I was taken aback. The listing says "Jaisalmer Sightseeing Tour" - which implies there's. a tour. There is not. There is a car, which is helpful. By the way, you don't need a service to set up a car. You can Uber VERY easily in India without need for a private car and for much cheaper. I texted the tour company and Prakash arranged a tour guide on very short notice - Om Shanti - who was very friendly and welcoming. He gave me a very in depth history on the fort and the area and also escorted me to Gadisar Lake (which was really not worth seeing). Shanti did make a few odd comments about his distaste for certain ethnic groups in the area and also saying Chinese people eat dogs (just unnecessary).

A lively camel safari

I signed up from the hotel I was staying at and went there alone, but it was a lively party with about 15 tourists from all over. Experience camel riding, sunset, local dance and musical instruments, dinner, sleep on desert sand, sunrise, breakfast and more. The Jaisalmer Tourist Taxi driver who picked me up and dropped me off was also very service-minded and even took me around Palace as a bonus at the end. Finally, it's really cold to sleep in the desert, even though two blankets are provided, so it's better to stay warm. People with dust allergies can also get rhinitis from the sand, so be careful.

The best in hospitality

I traveled with my wife and 3yr old kid. This is the best tour operator i had ever seen . The driver they alloted us was very much knowledgeable and had a very good communication skill, They treated tourist as part of their family . Am basically a south indian from Tirunelveli,Tamilnadu but I didn't face any kind of Language problem bcoz of the fine management and multilingual driver. Over all the experience is excellent and this Jailsalmer visit wil b always close to my heart and remembered for many years. I referred this travels to my frens, hope to travel again soon or earlier in the golden sands of Thar.
