Jaisalmer at Night Walking Tour

Discover a new side of Jaisalmer, seeing the beautiful monuments of the Golden City illuminated against the night sky on this evening walking tour.

Itinerary

After meeting your professional English-speaking guide at the scheduled time, you'll begin your walking tour of Jaisalmer at night. Explore its yellow sandstone fortress, one of the world's few living forts, which houses a quarter of the city's population. This 12th century citadel is particularly striking at night, when its walls are illuminated, radiating the golden hue of the city.

Your guide will share stories about the various sites you visit. Learn about the history of the Rani Ka Mahal and Raja Ka Mahal, the queen's and king's palaces, as well as Surya Mandir, a 500-year-old temple dedicated to the Hindu sun god.

Next, you'll visit the Jain Temples within the ancient fortress. This network of seven intricately carved shrines dates back to the 15th and 16th centuries and is made from the same soft golden stone. Your evening walking tour of Jaisalmer will conclude with a visit to a viewpoint, offering one of the best views over the city.
