An incredible night under the desert stars
My husband and I went on the overnight camel safari 4A and had the best time. Our guide Dilbagh and his assistant were incredibly kind and we learnt a lot about camels and life in the desert. The meals (2x breakfast, 1x lunch, 1x dinner) were cooked right there in the desert on a fire and were super delicious and generous portions. Our camels were well treated, calm and kind. After the tour we were given a full hostel room with a shower to clean up (definitely necessary after a night in the dunes) and rest. We were even dropped at the train station. The real highlight was sleeping under the stars though: the beds were comfy and the blankets nice and thick, so that we could enjoy the desert aircon without feeling cold. Thanks Trotters for this incredible experience!

Sleeping under stars
We had a fantastic overnight experience in the Desert. Trotters looked after us well and were very attentive. Our bed was up on a sand dune snd the expanse of stars was incredible, the experience fed our souls. We felt honoured that our guide took us to meet his lovely family in the village and have chai. It really does feel that Trotters value their guests.

Non-Tourstic Safari Camp
I had one of the most memorable experiences of my life. I never thought I’d get the chance to sleep in the desert under the open sky—it was truly unforgettable. The Trotters staff were wonderful; they shared their stories and experiences, which made the journey even more special. Bhati Sahab was incredibly humble and modest, personally taking us around and explaining every sightseeing spot. An experience I’ll always remember.

Overnight Camel Safari - Sleeping under the Stars: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Jaisalmer.
How much does Overnight Camel Safari - Sleeping under the Stars cost?
+
Prices start at $41 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Jaisalmer usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Overnight Camel Safari - Sleeping under the Stars take?
+
Plan for about 20 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 Jaisalmer is not rushed.
Is Overnight Camel Safari - Sleeping under the Stars worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 95 out of 100, which we label "Peak Performance". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 416 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Jaisalmer, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Overnight Camel Safari - Sleeping under the Stars?
+
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 Overnight Camel Safari - Sleeping under the Stars suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 20-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Overnight Camel Safari - Sleeping under the Stars?
+
Around 146 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 Jaisalmer 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 Jaisalmer and add a light layer if any part of the 20-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Overnight Camel Safari - Sleeping under the Stars 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 Jaisalmer 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 Jaisalmer?
+
On Outty we rank every Jaisalmer experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Adventure non touristic camel safari, Overnight Desert Safari Tour Package, Pleasant Non-Touristic Overnight Camel Safari (From 2:00 PM to Approx. 10:30AM). 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 Jaisalmer?
+
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 Jaisalmer?
+
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.
