Super tour with good organization and overnight stay under the stars - Great camel safari and an exceptional night under the stars.
Small group of 4 people (believe up to 8 possible) away from other tourist groups. Great camels and especially the overnight stay outside were highlights.
On the way to the desert we stopped at an old abandoned village.
Super organization from the owner Sebastian. I arrived in the morning by night bus and was picked up from the bus station. In the hostel I got a free room to rest and freshen up until 14:00.
Transportation to the start of the tour and pickup was also included.

Fantastic Desert trip - I met Sebastian in his business location inside the fort of recommendation from the owner of the big tree cafe, which has an amazing view. Sebastian advised what tours he does, his English is amazing, he’s very experienced, we agreed a price and he picked me up from my hotel, in a very cool jeep, we stopped and had chai and picked up another jeep, did the dunes and watched the sunset, there were options for camel rides and quad bikes, there were options for overnight stay, however I have an early start so couldn’t do. The whole experience was very good, Sebastian has a great sense of humour and we laughed a lot, he has very good reviews on here, so made me feel comfortable, I work in security and am always cautious, however he was great and made me feel comfortable. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Jaislamer. Sean UK

Excellent Camel Safari Overnight Experience! - This tris is FANTASTIC! You get exactly what you are promised. A jeep ride to a village, long camel ride to a remote quite place, dinner and sleeping under the stars. The camels looked very well cared for and they supply tons of blankets till you feel cozy in the desert. The camel men are from the local villages and enjoying sharing their lifestyle with guests. They are personable, attentive, and communicated well.
Book this trip directly with Ganesh Travels or visit their location in the Jaisalmer Fort. The owner has a lot of pride in his service and it is truly the best we found after doing a lot of research and doing another "luxury" camel ride booked through our hotel. This is not a travel agency, it is the actual owner of the camels and trip. This was an absolute highlight during our time in Jaisalmer.

The best of Radjastan! - We had a great time with Sebastian. We took the full day and no regrets. Sebastian was adorable from start to finish, he explained all the places we went, telling us anecdotes. His English is perfect. The food was excellent, the chai was delicious! Really a timeless moment, very peaceful, extremely pleasant.

Safari in the desert - We spent a wonderful day in the desert with Sebastian. In the morning visit the different temples and cenotaphs of Maharaja. Then we cooked with him in the desert it was amazing 😍
I can only advise you to stop by him for safaris in Jaisalmer.

An adventure in the desert accompanied by Kalou, Papua and Mr Lala, our faithful camels! - We were extremely thrilled by our adventure in the desert with Ganesh Travels! I recommend this agency with my eyes closed.
I found the address on the French guide the backpacker and it was a very good recommendation. The contact with Sébastien from the beginning was very clear and pleasant to organize our stay. We chose the option 1 night in the desert and we keep a magical memory.
Sebastian picked us up from our hotel at 8.30am and drove us to the meeting point. There we met Bhera, our wonderful guide who accompanied us throughout the day, and our three camels (Kalou, Papua and Lala).
I particularly appreciated the environmentally friendly aspect that the agency and Bhera had, and the camels are treated very well, which was dear to me.
The food was delicious and the scenery breathtaking. We were in a remote corner of the desert and spent the night in the middle of sand dunes.
I want to thank Bhera and Sébastien for organizing this stay that will remain etched in our memory for a long time!

A magnificent authentic experience in the middle of the dunes - Ganesh travel was recommended to us obviously by "the backpacker", so we could not be wrong:)
Indeed, it was a wonderful very authentic 24-hour bush experience around Jaisalmer, two with only locals with whom we walked in camel, cooked with the Scout and slept under the moonlight....a moment of calm and authenticity away from the turbulence of Indian cities

Wonderful - Very good memory with Sébastien/Ganesh travels and especially our camelman Neymar and bhera. We were away from tourists alone with the desert. Very nice exchanges. I highly recommend going with Ganesh travels if you want to go on a desert safari. Camel welfare

Unforgettable memorizing ! - Peace, nature, starts are all here. We stayed for 2nights & 3days. It would be tired but it's worth trying when you are in Jaisalmer. Our Camel man Vera, Ram didn't only help us but also teach how to live in Dessert. Unforgettable time.
