Maharaja Tempo Traveller from Jodhpur to Jaisalmer

Jodhpur to Jaisalmer by Maharaja Tempo Traveller

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

The Jodhpur to Jaisalmer tempo traveller route is a journey into the heart of the Thar Desert. Leave Mehrangarh Fort's blue city behind and drive west on NH-15 through increasingly barren yet beautiful desert terrain. Pokhran — where India conducted nuclear tests in 1998 — offers a fort stop and chai break. As you approach Jaisalmer, the golden sandstone Sonar Kila (Golden Fort) emerges from the desert haze like a mirage. This living fort still houses families, shops, and Jain temples within its walls. The real magic comes at Sam Sand Dunes (42 km from Jaisalmer) — camel safaris at sunset, cultural performances with Manganiyar folk musicians, and sleeping under a star-blanketed desert sky in luxury tents. Pyaaz kachori and mawa kachori in Jaisalmer are legendary.

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.
