Jodhpur Taxi Services@Pappu Singh. I and my family were on 06 days tour to Jodhpur and Jaisalmer and had hired Etios taxi for full 06 days.Services provided by Pappu ji@Jodhpur Taxi services and his team(Driver@Kishan Singh Bro) was remarkable,memorable, unique in nature and just like my family .They provided trusted driver,knowledgeable guides,good vehicle,places worth visiting. Our ultimate tour was of village Khuri(located at 40 kms from Jaisalmer) where we enjoyed desert safari along with tribal culture and desert flora and fauna....black Buck,spotted dear,blue bull...peacock...roaming near desert camp.... Most importantly...Jodhpur Taxi charges were very genuine...No hidden charges...very transparent and superb services👍

Drive from Jaisalmer to desert

We were picked up in a taxi at our hotel in Jaisalmer and taken to a meeting point where we joined two other guests in a small van. It was a very basic van without luxuries but adequate to a desert drive experience. The driver stopped and pointed out animals along the way and was friendly. The only problem was that because the van was older, there were some problems with the stability of the seats. But in general for the hour or so drive it was fine.

"Not enough words to praise this Service"

How can we thank-you for the wonderful trip we have recently completed? On behalf of my family saying Thank-you seems inadequate. Best in class service and honest driver . Well dressed and most important is good customer dealing. I recommend your services to everyone and also request Mr Pappu Singh to open new service points in other states so that everyone can have enjoy holidays "bole to bindass and tension free enjoyment plan " :)
