We had a great jeep safari trip with our guide/driver Deepak. A villager himself he was extremely knowledgeable, interesting to talk to, a lovely man with a good sense of humour; we were able to get many questions about India answered. Deepak's english is perfect too. The tour took us round a potters house, weavers cooperative, a traditional villager's house... More

I had a nice trip with Deepak to the villages around Jodhpur and I can recommend it. We saw a few animals and visited interesting places and people. Deepak didn´t get tired answering 1000 questions about India and explaining the things we have seen. Besides I wanted to see a special place and it was no problem integrating it in... More

A really interesting morning in the villages local to Jodhpur. Our guide Veepee was friendly and informative. We met weavers and potters at work. We saw gazelle in the fields. We weren't pressed to buy anything. And we weren't hassled for tips. Thoroughly recommended.

The open jeep ride through the sprawling "valley of death" was great. Immediately the movie "The Darjeeling Limited" comes to mind and I enjoyed transporting myself to that ha. Deepak has an intimate knowledge of the land as he lives and supports himself on it as you will see when his family whip you up a delish lunch of a... More

We were a group of 14 young travelers, traveling in India during March-Apr 2012. Setting Rajasthan as one of our main destinations, we started looking for a more unconventional experience to enjoy a unique sense of Indian culture and lifestyle. Reading travel testimonias, we were fascinated to join Bishnoi Village safari, and yes, it was an experience like no other!... More

Had a wonderful day on the Bishnoi village safari! A friend and I had only one day to spend in Jodphur, before our departure to Jaisalmer and we spent the day gaining insight into rural India. Our guide had very good eyesight, spotting wildlife at a great distance and we were lucky to see animals including gazelle, camel, mongoose and... More

I visited India with a friend and we had planned to stay a very short time in Jodhpur, whilst on our way to Jaisalmer. We decided to take Bishnoi Village safari to fill the time before our onward train and afterwards wished we had more than one day in Jodhpur! The Safari was a fantastic experience - the jeep ride...

We went on the tour with Deepak. Our two children (10 and 6) were very interested in all he told and showed us. The shopping part of the tour was very minor and when we did not want to buy there was no pressure on us. I can reasly recommend the tour.

One of the most beautiful trips while I was inIndia.Deepak, driver and guide comes from these regions and is full of interesting information and will help. Having already fallen dark, I asked Deepak to drive me to the bus station, he telephoned nephew who took me to the station that I probably never found. I would definitely recommend!

It was a very good experience going for this Village safari. The driver was mild mannered and acted as an on-route guide. He took us inside a potter's house and a typical Bishnoi house in its natural habitat. We had Bajra ki roti and tea and spend some time taking to the family members. Then he took us to Durry... More
