EXPERIENCE RATING
New on Evynx

Fort, carved havelis, Gadisar Lake and the Kuldhara ghost village over two guided days.

About this experience

Two private guided days across Jaisalmer's heritage core, for travellers arranging their own city stay. One day is spent entirely inside the living fort - its seven-storey Raj Mahal, the resident Jain temples, and the carved facades of Patwon Ki, Salim Singh Ki, and Nathmal Ki havelis in the old merchant quarter. The other turns outward to a rowboat on Gadisar Lake, the royal cenotaphs of Bada Bagh, and Kuldhara, the Paliwal Brahmin village abandoned since the 1800s and now a quiet, sand-swept ruin on the desert edge. The same guide and vehicle cover both days, with no re-briefing between them.

Highlights

  • Jaisalmer Fort - living Bhati stronghold raised in 1156, its Raj Mahal rising seven storeys
  • Patwon Ki Haveli - five interlinked 1805 mansions built by merchant Guman Chand Patwa
  • Salim Singh Ki Haveli - 1815 haveli with a peacock-shaped roof and 38 carved balconies
  • Gadisar Lake - the desert city's water source since Rawal Jaisal's 12th-century founding
  • Kuldhara - Paliwal Brahmin village first recorded in the 1230s, abandoned by the 1800s
