About Osian Desert Safari Jodhpur

Escape the bustling city and venture into the golden sands of the Thar Desert on our private Osian desert safari. Located just 65 kilometers north of the Blue City, the historic oasis of Osian offers travelers the closest and most scenic desert dunes without the five-hour journey to Jaisalmer. Known as the "Khajuraho of Rajasthan", Osian is a remarkable destination where 8th-century architectural heritage meets vast rolling sand dunes and tranquil desert horizons. Our signature Osian desert safari package is thoughtfully designed for travelers seeking cultural richness alongside desert adventure. Mount your decorated camel for an authentic Osian camel safari across peaceful sand ridges as the sun sets in a radiant palette of gold and amber. Beyond the desert sands, explore the intricate sandstone carvings of the 8th-century Mahavira Jain Temple and the sacred Sachiya Mata Temple perched high above the town. Created as a seamless Osian desert safari Jodhpur day excursion, you will travel in private air-conditioned comfort with our courteous local chauffeur, returning to your hotel in time for dinner.
