Good desert experience at Kafila

- Hospitality and friendliness of the owner and his team - Comfort of the tents is great for being in a desert (heater for winter, A/C for summer, good bed and shower) - Package all inclusive with the tent, food, camel/Jeep ride and traditional Rajasthani show. No extra to pay

It was an exceptional desert experience for me and my family!

The camp was located away from the crowded part of the desert giving a very personal experience. The facilities were very well maintained. The food was freshly prepared home style and served with Rajasthani hospitality.

It is a great experience to be in midst of the desert, and Kafila is a good mix of comfortable living and enjoying the sandy surrounds. The camp is spacious, clean and well-maintained. Staff and crew are one of the highlights for the level of attention and individualised service. Food spread is wide and delicious with several Rajasthani specialities. Got the opportunuty to meet the inspirational owner, who shared the background, use of local artisans and local artists to engage the guests. Paramjeet, Deepika,Mool Singh and team made the experience special. Kudos to the behind-the-scenes chef and sous chef for churning out yum food. Thank you!

Highly Recommend

Hospitality at the Kafila was amazing. The team led by Paramjeet was just perfect. They were available when we need and making sure we are comfortable all through the stay. The stay included a clean luxurious tent, big bathroom with hot water. We did an evening safari including a camel ride, tea at the dune along with the beautiful sunset. The camp also has beautiful architecture and peacocks that hang around in the mornings. We celebrated a family member's birthday. At a short notice, the Kafila was able to setup an exclusive celebration with candles, tiki bar, cake and performance. Special shout out for Abrahim for taking great pictures.

When they say make yourself at home, they really mean it.

Our first desert stay turned out to be a delightful surprise, thanks to the amazing staff. Right from helping us with reservations to giving us the lowdown on transportation and activities, they were super helpful and genuinely welcoming. The organized events, like abondoned village tours, sunset watching with camels and stargazing, were unexpectedly cool. We even had the choice of using a professional telescope – a nice touch! And when it came to food, my friend couldn't eat spicy/chilli food, they took this into consideration when preparing her food. What made the stay even better was the friendly atmosphere. It was great seeing women in roles where you don't usually find them. Shoutout to Mr. Mool for being patient with all our questions and making sure we felt at home. This place is a gem, and we'd recommend it in a heartbeat! We stayed 2 days to experience everything and we didn't regret it. A quick note about transportation: We prioritized our safety and asked the camp to arrange a vehicle. The vehicles were comfortable but more expensive than normal. If you want to make transportation cheaper, you can arrange a taxi from the airport.
