Frequently Asked Questions

How far is the desert from Jodhpur?

The nearest sand dunes are at Osian, which is about 65 km (1.5 hours) from Jodhpur. It is perfect for a half-day or evening trip to see the sunset and enjoy a camel ride.

Is the Bishnoi Village Safari safe for children?

Yes, absolutely. Kids love it because they get to see animals like deer and peacocks in the wild. The pottery session is also very fun for children.

Can we drop off in Udaipur after the Ranakpur tour?

Yes! This is a great way to save time. Many guests book a "Jodhpur to Udaipur Transfer" with sightseeing at Ranakpur/Kumbhalgarh on the way. We can drop you at your Udaipur hotel instead of bringing you back to Jodhpur.

Can we do Ranakpur and Kumbhalgarh in one day?

Yes, it is the most popular combination. It is a full-day trip (approx. 10-11 hours). We start early (8:00 AM), visit Ranakpur first, have lunch, and then visit Kumbhalgarh Fort before returning to Jodhpur by evening.

What is the best time for the Osian Desert trip?

We recommend leaving Jodhpur around 2:00 PM or 3:00 PM (depending on the season). This allows you to reach Osian, visit the temple, and then hit the dunes exactly at sunset when the weather is pleasant.

Are there food options on the way to Ranakpur?

Yes, the route has several clean and hygienic midway resorts (like Maharani Bagh) where you can enjoy a fresh buffet lunch. Our driver will guide you to the best trusted spots.
