Overnight stay at Sam Sand Dunes Desert Camp.

Return from the golden sands to the Blue City of Jodhpur, where indigo-painted lanes wind beneath the towering walls of Mehrangarh Fort.

Mehrangarh Fort

Rising 122 metres above the city on a sheer rock face, this 15th-century fort is among the largest in India — its palaces, carved windows, and heritage museum are extraordinary.
