Experience India's village people and excellent craftsmanship - I would highly recommend this tour. We had a wonderful and informative afternoon with Devi Singh. The company was flexible in agreeing to meet near the villages instead of in town because it was on our from our previous destination. The tour is an excellent chance to see how the people live and work in the villages. At each of the stops, the locals will share their crafts and you will be able to purchase them at wholesale, but a firm "no" is received well. It is an opportunity for the craftsmen to benefit the most from their work. We saw many of the very same crafts in town for higher prices. The quality is of the crafts is outstanding and the people could not be more gracious. Devi was an excellent guide.

Authentic village tour at your own pace! - This tour was AWESOME. We had a young guide called Suryaveer who lives locally and he was able to show us around Bishnoi. So many of the places we saw were special and different from things we have experienced before. It was super fun to watch ceramics being made from scratch and even got to give it a go ourselves. It was overall relaxing as well and we did not feel rushed at all. We ended up at Suryaveer’s family home for a meal which was a highlight. Thank you!!

Recommended!! - Our guide, Ray, was full of fascinating facts about the Bishnoi people’s culture and history. Besides that, he was extremely kind too! Because it is a private tour, we never felt rushed and could visit the places he brought us at our own pace.

Village tour - The tour was very different from a normal tours. It was a very interesting experience. Salawas durry udyog was one of the most excellent experiences - learning and watching the weaving experience is something I have never done before. The food served in the house of one of the villagers is home cooked organic food which tastes lovely and is a must do. It is a part of jodhpur which most people do not know of. Ray is an excellent guide who provides you some good recommendations.
