Desert Safari in Jaisalmer

Half-Day Sunrise Camel Safari in Jaisalmer

Start your day with an unforgettable Half-Day Sunrise Camel Safari in Jaisalmer. We pick up guests at 5 AM from the Desert Harmony Resort office, partner hotels, or directly from their hotel. Begin the experience with a jeep ride to the dunes and witness a breathtaking desert sunrise surrounded by peaceful golden sands. Enjoy a healthy vegetarian breakfast before heading for a 90-minute camel ride through the isolated desert dunes. On the way back, explore famous attractions like Kuldhara Village, the beautiful Jaseri Lake, and Khaba Fort. After completing the tour, you will be dropped back in Jaisalmer by 11 AM.

  • One camel per person
  • Full jeep support
  • Freshly-prepared vegetarian meals (breakfast), chai/coffee, snacks, and plenty of bottled water. Menu will be sent on request by email. Please let us know if you have any specific dietary requirements.
  • Free pick-up service from your hotel/transport on the day of your safari. Just let us know your hotel name. Pick-up time is half an hour before the scheduled start of your safari. Otherwise, the starting point will be our office or our decided point (reporting time: half an hour before the scheduled start of your safari).

  • Long-sleeved shirt and long trousers.
  • Sunglasses, sunhat, and scarf. (We don’t recommend wearing contact lenses as the very fine sand can easily get behind them. Please bring your prescription glasses instead.)
  • During winter, a warm jacket or shawl for the evening and early morning.
  • Toiletries.
  • A torch (flashlight) – no light source is available at the campsite.
  • Camera (be very careful with electronic equipment as the sand can easily enter the mechanism).
  • Please bring any medication you think you might need.

  • Music & Dance Programmes: This consists of a group of 4/5 singers, dancers, and musicians from the local gypsy community, performing Marwari music and playing traditional instruments. The performance lasts for approximately two hours.
  • We can arrange a private performance for you/your group, or you can choose to share the performance with any other guests who happen to be on safari with you. Please note that guests who have not specifically requested the music & dance programme may choose to contribute but are under no obligation to share the cost.
  • Please ask for current prices.
  • Non-Veg: Our regular trips come with vegetarian food (daal, rice, chapatti, vegetable curries, pakora, etc.). Non-veg can also be provided at an additional cost. Both mutton and chicken are available and will be cooked fresh at the campsite. Please enquire for further details.
  • Camel Carts: Our camel carts can seat a maximum of 4 people and are suggested for those who may not want to ride camels for long periods of time, as well as for groups with young children. Additional charges apply.
  • Private Safari: Usually, we form a group from the guests who book for a particular day, but if you’d prefer a private trip — riding and camping away from other guests — this can be arranged at an additional cost. Just let us know at the time of booking.
  • Note: You may have to share a jeep with other customers unless you wish to hire a private jeep. We require a minimum of two people to arrange a private safari.

  • Children: Children aged 4–6 are half-price and must share a camel with a responsible adult guardian. Children aged 7 and over are charged full price and can ride their own camel at their guardian’s discretion. There is no charge for children under the age of 4.
  • We do not recommend overnight safaris for very young children, but are happy to recommend our half-day tour.
  • For safety reasons, children under the age of 4 will not be permitted to ride camels, even when accompanied by an adult, as both parties need to be capable of holding on to the saddle horn/ropes for the duration of the ride. They must remain in the jeep and be accompanied by an adult guardian at all times.
  • Campfire: Campfires are lit during the winter months (approximately November–February, dependent on the weather). We do not light campfires during the summer months as the light can attract insects to the campsite.
  • Please note that no fixed light source is available at the campsite for the same reason. We recommend bringing your own torch (flashlight) and limiting its use.
  • Jeep-only Option: While the desert landscape is best experienced from the back of a camel, the jeep is available for anyone who cannot or does not wish to ride. If you would like to try a shorter ride at the dunes just to experience camel riding, this can be arranged.
  • Please note that the jeep route is mostly on roads and farm tracks. It does not follow the camel route and is not a dedicated “jeep safari” as such — just an alternative means of reaching the campsite.
  • Facilities: Please note that there are no washing or bathroom facilities available after leaving Jaisalmer.
  • Please try to minimize the use of toilet paper, as it spoils the dunes and is difficult and unpleasant for our staff to clean up. We recommend adopting the local method of washing with water.
  • If you do use toilet paper, please do not bury it or leave it in the open. Either bag and bin it or burn it (matches can be provided). Wet wipes must be bagged and returned to town for disposal.
  • Please help us keep the desert tidy by returning all your litter to camp.

  • The Agency will not be responsible or liable for any problems associated with the consumption of alcohol or drugs during the trip.
  • The Agency does not accept responsibility for any adverse weather conditions you might encounter during your safari.
  • We have our own professional guides and drivers, so outside guides and drivers are not allowed on our safaris.
  • We kindly ask you not to compare the Thar Desert with the Sahara Desert or Egyptian sand dunes.
  • This is a real adventure desert safari, so there are no washrooms, no electricity, and no mobile network available.
  • You will sleep under millions of stars.
