Jaipur to Jodhpur Jaisalmer Desert Tour by Maharaja Tempo Traveller

12 to 17 passengers · air-conditioned · driver and fuel included

The Jaipur to Jodhpur-Jaisalmer Desert Tour tempo traveller circuit is the definitive Thar Desert road trip. Start with the 335 km drive to Jodhpur on NH62 through Ajmer and the Aravalli scrubland, watching vegetation thin as you approach the desert. Jodhpur's Mehrangarh Fort — rising 125 meters on a volcanic rock — is among India's grandest, with intricate jali screens and a stunning museum. The blue-painted Brahmin houses of the old city below create an otherworldly panorama. Explore Umaid Bhawan Palace and savour mirchi vada and makhaniya lassi at Shahi Samosa on Nai Sarak. Continue 285 km on NH15 through Pokhran (India's nuclear test site, now a heritage hotel) into deep desert to Jaisalmer. The Golden City's sandstone fort is unique — it's a living fort with 3,000 residents still inside. The Sam Sand Dunes (42 km from Jaisalmer) offer camel safaris, desert camping under a canopy of stars, and Rajasthani folk music around the campfire. Kuldhara ghost village and Gadisar Lake complete this royal desert experience.

A one-way drop is charged at the same per-km rate as a round trip, because the vehicle still returns to base empty afterwards.
