A Simple Jaisalmer Tour Package from Udaipur Itinerary
If you leave Udaipur by car in the morning, keep the arrival evening light rather than promising a full city tour or desert safari after the drive. Check into your hotel, have dinner and explore the nearby streets if you feel up to it. The next morning, visit Jaisalmer Fort and Patwon Ki Haveli before heading towards Sam for sunset and a camp stay.
Arriving early after an overnight bus? You can rest first and choose a desert camp for the first night, keeping the fort, havelis and Gadisar Lake for the following day. A two-night stay works best when arrival and departure timings allow; add a night if you want more rest or a separate day for Tanot Mata Temple and Longewala. Keep the return journey to Udaipur separate from your sightseeing time.
Choose between a short city-and-camp stay or a longer trip with additional sightseeing. Compare the accommodation and activities, then check whether the quote includes the Udaipur transfer or begins with pickup in Jaisalmer.
