In our time in Jaisalmer we decided to spend each night in different accommodations, in the fort and the desert. This was the most comfortable option in terms of accommodation, with comfortable rooms, great shower, abundant meals and peaceful surrounding. The stay included a camel ride, an evening of traditional music and dance, and all our meals.
Having spent one night at the Thar Dunes with Thar Desert Tours, we felt that the trip to Sam Sam Dunes was a bit of a "tourist circus". I would definitely recommend to visit other dunes if you are looking for tranquility, etc. The rest was fantastic, we really enjoyed the hour long show of traditional dance and music and the abundant meals.
We also enjoyed a lot the fact that we were the only international tourist. We had the opportunity to meet nationals from all over India, which was great!
Definitely a great stay!!
Keep in mind that, if your booking arrangements do not include transport from/to the train stations the average cost to get here will be 800-1200rs each way since the camp is 40km away from Jaisalmer.
