    Horrible driver, great sites

    This review is about the driver provided not the sites. The purpose of this booking was to get an older American travelling couple from Jodhpur to Jaisalmer with stops along the way in Osian to see the ancient temples and in Khichan to see the demoiselle cranes. The driver provided drove us from Udaipur to Jodphur three days earlier and so had dropped us at our hotel in Jodphur and knew where to find us. In both places, the night before pickup, the driver was provided a dropped pin on a Google map and a confirmation of the agreed pick up time. Both in Udaipur and Jodphur the driver was late picking us up, costing us 30 minutes on our day of activities each time, vacation time I would have preferred to use doing coffee or sleeping rather than standing on the curb waiting. In Udaipur I walked 10 minutes to his parked car and had him drive back to the pick up point with the other passenger and luggage. Picking up on time and driving safely are the two basic requirements of this job. Here are the other points I found lacking in this driver service: 1. Traveling in 90F heat on trip between Udaipur and Jodhpur, driver did not use the a/c during the 5.5+ hours of driving time and so we were exhausted on arrival. He did use the a/c on the Jodhpur to Jaisalmer journey. 2. Driver accepted and spent much time on video calls while driving. 3. Driver called an English speaker and had me talk to that person who instructed us to “be quick” at Osian. Interesting given he cost us 30 minutes in the late pickup. 4. As we approached Khichan, driver asked at least 4 other motorists etc how to get there. Driver had GPS on his phone. 5. Driver stopped for gas shortly before Khichan and filled the tank with us sitting in the car and the engine running. This made me very uncomfortable as it is a known safety/explosion hazard. 6. We spent 90 minutes at Osian and 20 minutes at Khichan. This entire journey from Jodhpur to Jaisalmer requires 5.5 hours of driving. After those two hours of stops, when the driver had no responsibilities, we headed directly to our destination, Jaisalmer. An hour before destination, driver stopped because “he was hungry”. We were not consulted as to if we wanted to stop or where. We stayed in the car, interested in getting to Jaisalmer quickly. Driver spent 50 minutes in the restaurant while we sat in car in 90+ heat. This time he did turn the car off and took the keys. This clocks in at 80 minutes of our time wasted by the driver and a lack of sensitivity to passenger comfort. We very much enjoyed the sites along the way. This driver succeeded in delivering us to our two destinations but is a very poor example of someone interested in their work. We have had other excellent drivers with Viator. This driver is not one of them. The WhatsApp name associated with the person who drove us is Himanshu Tak and his number ended in 341.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review. First of all, we are glad to hear that you enjoyed the sites along the route, especially Osian and Khichan. These are truly unique places in Rajasthan and we are happy they were part of your journey. At the same time, we sincerely apologize for the experience you had with the driver service. The issues you mentioned — late pickup, lack of proper air-conditioning use, phone calls while driving, unnecessary delays, and lack of attention to passenger comfort — are not acceptable according to our company standards. Punctuality, safety, and guest comfort are the most basic expectations we set for all drivers working with us. After carefully reviewing your feedback, we took this matter very seriously and the driver involved has been immediately removed from our team. We do not tolerate behavior that compromises the comfort or safety of our guests. For future guests reading this review, we want to assure you that we work hard to maintain high service standards and the vast majority of our travelers have very positive experiences while touring Rajasthan with us. Situations like this are taken seriously and corrective action is implemented immediately. Once again, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused during your journey and we truly appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention.

    Drop Jaisalmer with Visit Osian and Khichan from Jodhpur: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Jodhpur.

    How much does Drop Jaisalmer with Visit Osian and Khichan from Jodhpur cost?

    +

    Prices start at $59 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Jodhpur usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Drop Jaisalmer with Visit Osian and Khichan from Jodhpur take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Jodhpur is not rushed.

    Is Drop Jaisalmer with Visit Osian and Khichan from Jodhpur worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Jodhpur, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Drop Jaisalmer with Visit Osian and Khichan from Jodhpur?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Drop Jaisalmer with Visit Osian and Khichan from Jodhpur suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Drop Jaisalmer with Visit Osian and Khichan from Jodhpur?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Jodhpur can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Jodhpur and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Drop Jaisalmer with Visit Osian and Khichan from Jodhpur start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Jodhpur within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Jodhpur?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Jodhpur experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Jodhpur Blue City Walking Tour with Guide, Private Jodhpur Blue City Tour with Hotel Pickup and Drop-off, Private Jodhpur Full Day City Sightseeing Tour By Tuk Tuk. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Jodhpur?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Jodhpur?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Drop Jaisalmer with Visit Osian and Khichan from Jodhpur?
