Experience Of Thar Desert
If you want to have an experience of Desert in India then there are 2 places Jaisalmer & Rann of Kutch.
So I visited Jaisalmer in the month of Feb as the best month to travel to Jaisalmer is from Nov- March.
We stayed 1 night near Fort and another on camp between Dunes. And after having an amazing experience at camp and safari I realized that I should have stayed 2 nights at camp.
We had Jeep safari and camel safari and both are ultimate experiences to have. I hired Jeep safari with the help of my driver and Camel safari was complimentary from Resort as most of the resort nearby give the complimentary camel ride.
So if you are visiting Jaisalmer or planning for Rajasthan trip then don't miss the Stay at Sand dunes camp and having both jeep and camel safari as both give a different experience. Also, you will enjoy the Folk dance & music show at camp. Also after reaching there, you will feel that you want to spend more time here.
