Unforgettable experiences in the desert - As the sun slanted, our shadows on the camels grew longer. The bells rang gently as the camels walked. It was a strange feeling to think that this vast desert would continue on into the future. The show had wonderful music and dancing. It was a peaceful and happy moment to dance with travelers from all over the world. Under the starry sky, my husband and I were able to see a shooting star. I will never forget this wonderful night we spent in the desert.

Ꭲhe Golden experiences - The drive to the camp, the friendly guide who was fluent in the language, and the many dilapidated historical buildings we visited along the way made it a wonderful journey so far. The time between arriving at camp and going to bed at night is truly a magic hour. Amazing shows by artists living in the desert of Rajasthan, exceptional food, a starry sky, and the longest shooting star you've ever seen! All of them were great memories. It's a golden time in my life, something I'll treasure for the rest of my life.

Memorable experience - Great hospitality and luck of private driver who spoke English fluently. Beautiful private tent with clean bathroom and good food for dinner. We had a nice guide during the camelride which was great at taking pictures. In the morning we had time to go into the desert and look for the sunrise with a cup of tea.

Lovely night in the Thar - We have recently returned from our trip with Fifu Camel Safaris. Even before we booked Fifu was so helpful in answering my many queries. Does who was our guide for the duration was lovely, very polite and informative thought our time out in the desert. He really looked after us and nothing was to much trouble. The camp is lovely, the camels seem very well looked after and the food and entertainment was great. On our return we had time before catching our bus out of Jaislmer and Fifu kindly let us sit in hotel and enjoy a coffee. We would definitely recommend you booking your trip with them.

Fifu Camps was the best experience! - We really loved our safari with Fifu! At 2pm we left out hotel by jeep to see Kuldara, an abandoned, some say, haunted village, then to a lake oasis and last a small fort…then to the camp in the khouri section of the desert, where the camels were waiting. We rode the camels a short way into the desert sand dunes to watch the sunset, and then back to the camp for the cultural show. There were musicians singing and playing traditional instruments and music, but my favorite was the dancing. The two dancers were really incredible and mesmorizing. We also had a buffet dinner with traditional Ragisthani food while we watched the show. Afterwards we went to our tents, swiss tents which were really nice…with a king bed, full bathroom with hot water, AC, a heater, and all amenities. In the morning we got up early to watch the sunrise, breakfast and then drove back to our hotel, Meri Haveli. I had the best night sleep I’ve had in 10 years and would be happy to stay at the camp forever! Our driver, the camp staff, food, and accomodations were all really nice and we will definitely do it again next time we visit.

A wonderful taste of Rajasthani culture! - A really wonderful experience managed and hosted by a great team! We had a great time during the camel safari during sunset, made even better by the cultural show afterwards followed by a yummy Rajasthani dinner. The luxury tents were really clean and very comfortable, and the staff were always around to help if needed. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a safe and authentic experience in Rajasthan! :)

Amazing Desert Safari in quite place - This is my 3rd Visit to Jaisalmer. Earlier, I stayed at Fifu Hotel owned them. This time, I stayed in Meri Haveli. I have booked Desert Safari with Fifu-ji. They arranged Mahinda Jeep which started around 2PM. Bhojaraj Soda did job driver, guide and host at desert camp. He has working with them since 20007.On the way to Khuri, they stopped at small lake called Jaseri Talab and Khaba fort. There is restoration work going on in Khabha Though it was year end, crowd was less which is unexpected. They organized an evening camel ride to dune for viewing sunset, morning 1.5 hours camel ride to sun rise point along with campfire. There was cultural program in the evening with bon fire. Food was vegetarian with dal-bhati churma and ker sangri with rooti/naan ..etc. It was delicious. Our desert safari driver Bhojaraj Soda took good care of us. We started around 9:30 AM after breakfast and reached hotel around 10:15 AM There is a drastic increase in domestic tourists in Jaisalmer compared to 2009 & 2010. In 2009, people were telling Sam dunes were having more touristic crowd. I was skeptical this time and expecting same crowd in Khuri also. I was surprised see less crowd during year end at Fifu Desert Camp. Fifu-Ji had assured me before going that it will be quite place. This is the place for people who wanted to go quite place with no touristic crowd

Great experience in the desert - Very cool overnight experience in the desert! The camp is quite well laid out, it’s even surprising in the middle of the desert. Water and electricity available. Very comfortable “deluxe tent”, private bathroom. A little difficult to get hot water but quite normal in the middle of a desert. Possibility of taking a camel ride at sunset. Indian music and dance by the fire during dinner (buffet). In the morning, breakfast (buffet) before returning to Jaisalmer (about 30’ drive). Soda accompanied us throughout this experience, he took great care of our well-being!

Good views of the sun set, very poor service - The sun set views were amazing, we made excellent photos. We expected a longer ride on the camel 😌 The accommodation was basic, nothing luxury. Take care of the food, it was fully vegan and rather poor quality. A special bad note to the service: the waiter behaved in a typical local way. No menu with the prices, I asked the price of a beer by word of mouth. When I paid, I was asked to pay more. This behavior was in line with what one foreign tourist experience every day there: we are perceived as walking wallets.
