Desert Delight — Jodhpur & Jaisalmer

The Blue City and the Golden City, with a camel ride on the Sam dunes
Rated 4.7 out of 5

About This Tour

Two cities of completely different colour. Jaisalmer is carved from golden limestone — the fort is called Sonar Kella for a reason — and its havelis, Patwon-ki, Nathmal-ki and Salim Singh-ki, still have families living in them after six hundred years.

Jodhpur is blue, and Mehrangarh stands on its sandstone hill above the whole of it. Umaid Bhawan, Jaswant Thada, Kaylana Lake and Mandore Garden complete the city. In between, sunset and a camel ride on the Sam sand dunes, and the Jaisalmer War Museum en route from Jodhpur.
