Padam, was a gracious and accommodating organizer. He was prompt with his responses and willing to accommodate our special request to visit with village folk and organize our trip to our specifications, flexible all the way.
We were guided into the Thar dessert by Shambu our ever obliging guide. Who was sensitive to our needs and was friendly, polite and attentive to our needs throughout our 2 day, 2 night safari. Though there were some adjustments to riding a camel, we enjoyed our safari through the sand dunes and villages. Resting for a masala chai and snacks under shady trees, communing with goats as we drank our chai.
Shambu made us hot meals from scratch, making sure we had more than enough to eat, and plenty of time to rest and recuperate as we took in the vast dessert. Sleeping under the stars and moon, snuggled in our blankets was a magical experience. The sheets were clean and we had enough blankets and a sleeping bag to ensure we were comfortable even though the temperature dropped to single digits overnight.
Wanderlust offers such value with great service, and flexibility to ensure your trip meets all your expectations.

Definitely would recommend the desert safari with Wanderlust. Despite starting on the regular tourist trail (could do without the oasis and ghost town stops), they differentiate themselves by taking small groups (5-7 travelers vs 20+ for other operators, at fair and similar price) which makes the night in the desert feel even more special and secluded. The dune where we camp out is far from everything, with no one else in sight, offering fantastic star gazing while you sleep in your open air (very comfy bed). Food is good and plentiful, the staff is very nice (thanks to our driver Nabu).

I booked a tour with Padam in 2017 and had such a great experience so I came back in 2023. Me and some friends booked a full day tour (highly recommend starting in the morning!) and Padam organized everything quickly and easily. We had breakfast in town and got driven into the desert where we met Sawai with the camels. I also got to ride the same camel as 6 years ago!! We were completely alone the whole time, also at night we had our own remote spot away from anyone else. The food our guides cooked was awesome, there was plenty of drinking water and the best part was milking a goat on the way for our Masala Chai! Spending the night under the full moon was simply perfect! I would definitely recommend booking with Padam and would go again any time! Great people and very non-touristic. Thank you so much Padam!

Such a cozy guest house!! Our stay here has been flawless, the ventilated terrace was the perfect place to chill out after a long walk around the old part if Jaisalmer. The restaurant also has really tasty dishes, sandwiches, drinks and many other thinks you could imagine.Rooms and restrooms were really clean and taked care of. The "quality of service"/cost ratio was difficult to improve. Last but not least, Padam and the rest of the staff are really nice with guests & I'm possitive you would also get on well with them as I did!! Discover what Jaisalmer and the Wonderlust guest house have awaiting for you!!

We had an excellent stay at Wanderlust Guest House. Padam was a fantastic host and helped us a lot during the crazy times of Covid lockdown.
He organised a great trip to the desert by jeep for us. We spent an incredible night in the Thar desert with him which turned out to be one of the highlights of our Rajasthan trip!

Wanderlust Camel Safari is a superb company who truly cares about their guests. This safari is an amazing value for your money and exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend you request Nabu and Shamhu as your guides, they spoke fluent English and were knowledgeable, organized, patient, and pleasant.
The tour starts at 4 pm. It is an hour drive to the desert in an air conditioned jeep. Upon arrival we were greeted by our two camels. It is a beautiful, secluded, hour camel ride to where you camp for the night. There are no other companies in sight which truly adds to the experience. You set up camp right next to huge sand dunes. Nabu and Shamhu took great pictures of us. We were given chai tea and snacks while enjoying the sunset. Dinner was prepared promptly and was delicious (Indian veg Thali). The cots (with a 4 inch thick foam) were set up right on the sand dunes!! Falling asleep under the stars and moon in the dessert was unforgettable. The breakfast the next morning was mouthwatering (half a watermelon each, porridge with banana, toast, jam, biscuits, chai tea). Shortly after breakfast the guides packed up and we got to enjoy another 1 hour camel ride back to the jeep.
Right from the start we felt welcomed and comfortable. The owner, Padam, has a passion for hospitality. He picked us up from the train station, complimentary, and allowed us to keep our luggage at his hostel (which is should mention is beautiful: exceptionally clean, amazing location & view of fort, delicious food) while we went on the safari. Although he did not come on the safari with us, he left us in the good hands of his tour guides Nabu and Shamhu. I couldn't recommend this tour anymore. Please treat yourself to this unforgettable experience!!

I found Wanderlust Camel Safari on tripadvisor. It hit all the right notes. I didnt want to stay in a fancy resort, meet loads of other tourists and listen to loud party music till late in the night. I wanted the real desert experience.
Padam Singh ji picked us up from our hotel at 2.30pm. After roughly an hour long drive, during which we stopped at the beautiful Khaba fort for a view of the old ruins and at an oasis with a lake, we reached a spot where we met our camels. Its an hour long camel ride, which is quite an experience and shouldnt be missed, but not necessarily the most comfortable one. The highlight for me was getting a front row view of many herds of deer prancing gracefully across the sands.
The main camp site is in the middle of nowhere, sand dunes all around, away from the city, from the roads, from other tourists. Hot tea and pakodas later, we watched the sunset which is quite a sight in an open desert.
Once it was pitch dark, they set up a bonfire next to our charpai and we lounged around, watching the sky light up with stars, having interesting conversations with Padam ji and the camel people while they cooked our dinner. Dinner was simple but hot and sumptuous.
One reason to do this safari is to watch the sky filled with billions of stars, it's a magical sight and something we never get to see otherwise.
When we were finally ready to leave, Padam ji drove us back to our hotel.
There is an option to stay overnight in the desert as well.
The safari is value for money compared to some resorts that charge exorbitant prices, Padam ji is a man of the earth, humble and happy to show you his desert world, the camels seems well treated and healthy, the experience is definitely a memorable one. Would happily recommend it to anyone visiting Jaisalmer.

We took the jeep tour to the desert, visiting the trade center by the silk road and watching over the abandoned village. Had lots of fun at the sand dunes and eating dinner under the stars. Even got a glimpse of the milky way for a few minutes. Enjoy!

Did the Wanderlust Camel Safari after reading numerous reviews and will say it is a must do when you visit Jaisalmer.
Team Padam was absolutely brilliant in organising the whole trip and the experience in the desert was fantastic.
As i am bad at writing long good reviews , few keywords / key phrases will best describe our trip :
- Comfortable Jeep Ride from Fort to Village. Padam was very Punctual at pickup from the Fort. Team Padam was very kind to assist with donning Turbans at the start of the Camel Safari.
- Approx 1.5 hours Camel ride on Well Fed and apparently Happy Camels. Stories of the legends in the desert , Stories of the Ghost town , Kings , Queens , and occasional folk songs by the camel boys kept the mood alive and kicking. The constant ringing of the bells on the Camels was therapeutic.
- Beautiful sunset at the campsite on the dunes.
- Tea and freshly prepared snacks in the evening on campfire
- Freshly prepared dinner onsite. Absolutely delicious.
- Beds and Blankets provided for our stay very clean and comfortable.
- Sleeping in the moonlight under the stars was like a system reboot for the mind and body. Highly Recommend !!
- The Sound of the bells from the Free Roaming camels in the night / dawn.. Pure Music !!
- Delicious Breakfast with Tea in the morning.
- Return Camel Ride to the Village. Alternatively , Jeep Can be taken but Camel Ride is recommended
- Jeep Ride from Village to Fort.
All in all , absolutely fantastic and unique experience , away from the routine humdrum of city life and a simple Non Touristic trip !!
Thanks a ton Padam and Team Wanderlust !! :) God Bless
