The desert, a dream - We met Sebastian at his office while walking in the fort. He took his time to explain to us with simplicity and all the love he has for his desert , the different possibilities we could choose We chose to spend 24 hours with his camels, so a camel safari in the morning, afternoon and next day. We talked, cooked, sang and exchanged about our different cultures in the dunes throughout this experience We had the chance to see the sunset and after the moonrise (redhead) Without lying, it's definitely worth the cost! It’s even I find a must-see address 🤗 Go there with your eyes closed!!!!!!

Unique experience with Ganesh Travels - Great experience with Ganesh Travels! Sébastien the manager helped us a lot! We opted for the option of 2 nights in the desert under the stars! Super competitive if you go directly through the agency inside the fort! Thanks to our 2 Camel drivers for this experience, Neymar and Ira! We had a great time! The good atmosphere was there! The kitchen was very good! The camels are very well treated (thank you Kalou! My camel:) ) The kitchen was very good and our Camel drivers were very caring! We went to areas without tourists, alone in the world. The sunsets were beautiful. We also visited small villages, and even visited a school where we were able to offer school supplies to children. We played cards, sing, top 👌 Thanks to Ganesh Travels!

best camel safari tour! best company, best sunsets - sebastian at ganesh travels helped to arrange and make our camel safari tour so memorable! we had private camel safari tour with 2 guides, neymar and ira, the two most kind and sweet people i have met in rajasthan! they were the most accomodating and made the best food for our 2 day 2 night safari. we spent a lot of time on the camels riding through the desert, we visited oasis, villages, and even a school. we played a lot of card games and had the best company in neymar and ira. best of all, we also went to areas on the dunes with no other toursists so it was so peaceful! sebastian also went above and beyond to help arrange other accomodations near jaisalmer and was just the most kind man! book with ganesh travels for any of your needs, especially camel safari tour, and you will not be disappointed!

Unique experience with accomodating staff - Staff were accommodating, giving me medicine when I was ill. Camel ride was unique. 1 and a half hours is more than enough in the heat. You get an opportunity to go back on them in the morning. They nicknamed the camels, very humorous. The sleep you get depends on if you are ok with beetles and bugs in general. I’m not so the sleep was hindered, but that is what you expect from a desert safari- so just keep that in mind. The sunset and sunrise was amazing and made for great pictures.

Amazing tour! - We did the one night desert experience and was great, all worked very well, staff kind and friendly. We didn't ride camel so took the jeep instead. The food was good, the bed comfy and sleep under the open sky is a unbelieveble experience. Totally recommend.

Fantastic experience in the Jaisalmer desert! - Had a fantastic experience with Ganesh Travels. Sebastian was very friendly and organised. The camel riding was huge fun, and Behra answered all our camel and desert related questions. The food served was delicious and sleeping under the stars was an unforgettable experience. Highly recommend if you're in Jaisalmer.
