Genuinely well organised. The trip leader had a plan for everything and still left us enough free time. Jaisalmer Dunes & Camel Safari was even better than the photos.

Third trip with Backpackers India and the standard has not dropped. Stays were clean, food was good and the group was fun. Jaisalmer Dunes & Camel Safari is a must do.

Travelled solo and never felt out of place. Only note is that one drive was longer than expected, but Jaisalmer Dunes & Camel Safari made up for it completely.
