Exploring Jaisalmer Fort
This unique living urban centre, formerly an ancient fort, is home to over 3000 people with shops, people and cows in honeycombed old houses on criss-crossing lanes. Walk past temples and shops and stop for a cup of masala chai on a rooftop restaurant for spectacular panoramic views. Perfectly shaded yellow sandstone walls take you back to a time of battles and reinforcements here.
Jeep Safari in Thar
The Thar can be explored in 4x4, off over dunes , conquering sand hills one after another. Jeep safari is one of the most adventurous and joyful activity in Thar desert .Get here early enough from Jaisalmer to watch the sun go down and experience a sunset. During my visit i got the best experience of jeep safari offered by cab service in Rajasthan.
Lunch with the locals
Get friendly with a local family in Jaisalmer,getting to know more about their traditions and culture, as they give you a quick MasterChef session on Rajasthani food. Dishes could vary, depending on the season you’re visiting in, from millet flatbread (bajreki roti), legumes (fali) and stuffed pepper (mirchibada) to lentil-infused hard wheat rolls (daalbaati). Enjoy your very own home-cooked Rajasthani meal with the family and don’t forget to take notes.
Camel safari
Clamber onto your steed for the evening, a lumbering camel that gives you a literal description of why he’s called the ‘ship of the desert.’ Look out onto mustard fields that border villages on one side and fascinating sand dunes of the Thar on the other. Stop for a snack or two as the sun slowly goes down in the horizon.
Kalbelia Dance
Enjoy the local kalbelia dance in the sand dunes of the Jaisalmer . this dance is performed by the local tribes name Kalbelia .
