Desert

Are camel safaris in Jaisalmer a good idea?

Quick answer

A short camel ride at the dunes is a normal Jaisalmer activity. A long ride is only a good idea if you already know you like riding and you have asked who owns the animal and where you will sleep. The dunes are outside the town.

Detailed answer

Commercial camps range from quiet to very loud, with music and a buffet. Neither is ‘the real desert’ by default. Ask what is included, how long the ride is, and whether the jeep back is at a fixed time.

Animal welfare is a fair question. If a camp cannot tell you where the camels rest, choose another. Do not ride in the hottest hours of May or June.
