In a nutshell
It should be THE must of your India trip!
davidjo Says: This is an ideal place to take photos of the local women with their traditional costumes, jewellery, tattoos, and colourful saris. Just stroll around using your zoom lens or approach them to request permission, nobody ever refused me!
davidjo Says: The fort is also known as Sonar Quila due to the yellow colour of the stone and is an imposing structure as you approach the town from the desert. You can spend hours wandering around inside the fort admiring the wonderful architecture of the numerous buildings. Don't miss...
SophieDumouchel Says: Jewel Caravan is a lovely "museum-boutique" with an incredible choice of jewellery.There is a vast selection of Rajasthani silver ornaments, as well as a precious collection of Tibetan jewellery in silver, turquoise, lapis and coral. They have also gemstones, both rough and...
mariache Says: For those who are looking for the proper company to make safari with.. I would highly not recommend Adventure travel agency! Their safari is the most expensive compare to, for example, Sahara or Ganesh, but it definitely don't worth that big difference! Don't be confused by...
Biscotte Says: Only 2 places to go for great jewellery shopping. Jewel Caravan in Sadar Bazaar and Hari Om jewellery inside the fort's palace. Jewel Caravan has the best choice (and really nice tribal jewellery and tibetan jewellery) and reasonable prices. Hari Om has lovely custom...

Jaisal Treat: Excellent food. Excellent service
PrachiS Says: After the horrible experience at The Trio, Jaisalmer (which I have advised travellers never to visit), i went with reluctance to the Jaisal Treat last night. However my experience was very different. We were greeted with a smile and were given best table near a window giving...
The Trio Jaisalmer: Horrible experience at The Trio. Waste of money
PrachiS Says: I went to this horrible restaurant named The Trio, Mandir Palace. (TIN no.08372500136) with my wife and my 4 year old son today, i.e. November 17, 2012. This is a real dis-gusting place to ever be in your life.I decided on this place after reading the reviews on various...
THE BHANG SHOP: TRY A BHANG LASSI
davidjo Says: No trip to Jaisalmer is complete without a visit to the Bhang shop where you can sample a bhang lassi (yoghurt), Bhang Thandai (almond milk). Bhang is prepared from marijuana leaves and is legal to drink from government registered shops (where the amount is controlled) and...
alexandria08 Says: I had spent the night in the Sam desert, in a mud hut and then in a Swiss Tent. I must say it is one of the best experiences of my life. The mud huts and the Swiss Tents both have all the necessary washroom/ toilet facilities and electricity as well. But the best part is it...
toonhut Says: If after your overnight stay in the dunes you suddenly notice a sense of invincibility come over you, why not return back to town seated on the thin back door beam of an open, crowded, zipping, taxi pickup truck. It will be unforgettable, if nothing else. Be sure to have...
lynnehamman Says: Jaisalmer can be reached quite easily from Jodhpur by bus, train or hire carWe had a car & driver, and the trip took about 4.5 hours. We left Jodhpur at 7.30 am and reached Jaisalmer in time for lunch. The road is not too bad- although it usually has a strange assortment of...
Sushil Barsa's Jaisalgear: Pashmina & Silk stuff
ulric Says: This is tucked in a small shopfront you go downstairs to what could be likened to an Alladin's cave of shawls and scarves. In no particular order:- There is a great assortment of shawls; scarves and stoles available to look at- The prices are very reasonable- What you are...
Jewel Caravan: Gem in Golden city
JenCWu Says: For once, a shop where it is not JUST about getting your money. I actually learned a lot about Indian art while shopping. The guy has very nice printed information cards about everything he sells (and it is really well researched and well presented), and has travelled quite...
Jewel Caravan: Jewellery shopping
Biscotte Says: Incredible choice. Their collection is unbelievable. My personal favorite was the tibetan jewellery collection. But you can also find lovely Rajasthani silver tribal jewellery. They also have more classical pieces, mostly in silver with or without gemstones. Prices are...
toonhut Says: Might not seem like much of a warning but just to keep in mind. Although all towns that have the original old markets (the original ''inner town'' I suppose) have narrow lanes that all vehicles, people, and animals negotiate through, Jaisalmer's is different. It's old market...
Sam Sand Dunes - DON'T expect much
krescent78 Says: The Sam sand dunes are made out to be these amazing sand dunes which will make you feel like you are in the middle of the sahara desert. But it's far from it. Also, don't waste any money on taking a camel ride to the place. From all the tent accomodations there, or from the...
alexandria08 Says: Its necessary to carry a pair of sunglasses and sunscreen lotion. Additionally, I managed well with a Rajasthani 'Bandhni' dupatta or scarf. It gave me the traditional look as well saved me from the sun. Even in Jan-Feb, the days can be real hot. But then the nights are...
RAJASTHANBYCAR Says: Drive 18 km west of Jaisalmer and you will come upon the village of Kuldhara.Looks like the royalty of Rajasthan had made an art of killing the geese that laid golden eggs for them.The ruins of Kuldhara exhibit the architectural, excellence of those times, which was buried...
sonusingh Says: Hello friend, This is the best time to visit Rajasthan especially Jaisalmer. There are number of options available from Jaisalmer to Jodhpur and from Jaipur or Jodhpur to Jaisalmer. It is always advisable to travel by Rajasthan Roadways buses which offer excellent services...

Jaisalmer - Beautiful Oasis in the Sand
I had heard about Jaisalmer from a fellow traveler at a small restaurant in Agra. He described it so beautifully and he had my heart pounding with excitement as he told stories about this place that I...
Jaisalmer is the last frontier before hitting the Pakistan border in western Rajasthan. It springs up like a mirage in the surrounding Great Thar Desert like something from a romantic fairytale and is...
This small peaceful town in the Thar dessert is one of my favourite places in Rajasthan. The 'living' fort with its narrow streets, friendly inhabitants and beautiful havelis is the main...

A Giant Glittering Desert Sandcastle
After a 4 hour car journey from Jodhpur, we arrived at Jaisalmer. It was midday, and the magnificent 12th Fort was glittering in the noonday sun. In our usual mad fashion, we had not booked anywhere...
