The Great Indian Desert trek.
The Thar Desert, also known as the Great Indian Desert, is a located in western India and southeastern Pakistan, is the world's seventh largest desert.

The desert, and the act of moving through it, is a wonderful place for cleaning the mind of all our daily thoughts and worries. The desert and its dunes stretch for miles and miles. Life settles into a timeless routine of local tea and fresh bread, walking, a lunch stop for fresh salad and a siesta. Then a few more miles before the evening meal, a roaring fire, music, singing and a night under the stars as you have never before seen them. You will return from the desert feeling mentally clean and rested.

The Thar Desert trek programme is an action-packed adventure with a good blend of sightseeing and desert peace.

The introductory desert trek is suitable for all the family. We cross the Thar Desert from the Sam Dunes visiting small beautiful desert villages. We plan to do this trek in the months of November & December 2008 from Jaisalmer, Rajasthan

  • We are very experienced, and we work with the local professionals, to give you a high-quality desert experience.
  • We'll be completely isolated from western civilisation in this remote part of the great Thar Desert.

This is a wonderful experience if you are comfortable camping. We are completely alone and isolated. In true sense a Life away from life experience.
