SUJÁN The Serai

Golden dunes, beautiful desert trails and a sky slowly changing colour make this sundowner experience one of the most memorable ways to understand Rajasthan. The journey begins with a 4x4 drive through remote villages and stretches of desert landscape, giving you a glimpse into life beyond the usual tourist routes.

From there, swap wheels for a camel and continue across the dunes at a slower pace, enjoying the vastness of the Thar as the sun dips towards the horizon. Settle atop the dunes with refreshing sundowners, good company and uninterrupted views that showcase the beauty and scale of the desert.

Narrow lanes, centuries-old homes and stories around every corner make Jaisalmer Fort one of Rajasthan’s most fascinating places to explore. Accompanied by a knowledgeable guide, wander through this UNESCO World Heritage Site and discover beautifully carved havelis, ancient Jain temples, bustling courtyards and hidden passages that reveal the city's rich past.

Unlike many historic forts, this one remains a living community, where families, artisans and shopkeepers continue old cherished traditions. Conversations, architecture and everyday life come together to offer a perfect understanding of the Golden City and the people who call it home.

Hands-on, personal and grounded in local tradition, this pottery workshop brings you face-to-face with the artisans who keep Rajasthan’s craft heritage alive. Spend time with skilled makers as they demonstrate pottery, wood carving, weaving, and other ancient techniques.

Held on the camp’s sand deck, the experience offers plenty of opportunities to ask questions, hear the stories behind each craft, and understand the patience and skill involved. Roll up your sleeves and try your hand at creating something yourself, guided by the very people who have spent years mastering their craft and preserving these traditions.
