Experiences at Dreamtime
- Live the Desert, Don’t Just Visit It.
Our Activities
The Spirit of the Desert
At Dreamtime Bungalows, we believe that travel should be felt — not rushed.
Here, experiences are slow, sensory, and deeply connected to the land.
From walking through the abandoned lanes of Kuldhara village to sipping tea by the Kak riverside, every moment is designed to let you live the desert like a local, not a tourist.
Come chase stories, not checklists.
Kuldhara Village Tour
Lost Stories | Living History | The Soul of the Desert
Just a few minutes from Dreamtime lies the abandoned Kuldhara Heritage Village, one of Rajasthan’s most mysterious and evocative sites. Once a thriving Paliwal Brahmin settlement, it now stands in quiet dignity — its sandstone ruins, narrow lanes, and ancient homes whispering stories of a time long past.
Join us on a heritage walk in Kuldhara, guided by locals who know the legends, the layout, and the life that once filled these walls. As you wander through the abandoned village, every corner reveals traces of craftsmanship, resilience, and the deep bond between people and the desert they called home.
Evenings here are surreal — when the golden light fades, and the silence feels alive.
For travelers seeking an offbeat Rajasthan experience, the Kuldhara Village Tour offers more than history — it offers presence.
It’s not about visiting ruins.
It’s about standing where stories still breathe.
Jaisalmer City Tour
Golden Fort | Havelis | Markets | Sunset by the Lake
From golden streets to glowing skies — experience Jaisalmer, the Dreamtime way. Spend a day wandering through the golden heart of Rajasthan — Jaisalmer City, where every stone glows with history and every lane hums with life.
Your journey begins at the magnificent Jaisalmer Fort, one of the world’s few living forts, still alive with homes, temples, and rooftop cafés overlooking the desert. Walk through its narrow lanes, visit Patwon ki Haveli with its intricate carvings and stories of trade, and lose yourself in the rhythm of the old city markets, filled with colors, crafts, and the scent of fresh kachoris.
Stop by our favorite street food corners, where the taste of Jaisalmer — from mirchi vadas to kulhad chai — meets the warmth of its people. As the day softens, head to Gadisar Lake for a serene sunset, where golden reflections paint the water in shades of amber and peace.
By evening, return to Dreamtime — where a bonfire, live folk music, and dinner under the stars complete your day.
It’s not just a sightseeing trip — it’s a story of golden walls, desert flavors, and timeless charm.
A journey through Jaisalmer’s living heritage, ending right where it belongs — in the quiet heart of the desert.
Desert Jeep Safari with Meer Khan
Untouched Dunes | Sunset & Chai | Bonfire & Starry Nights
Ride through untouched and unseen dunes with Meer Khan, one of Jaisalmer’s most trusted and beloved guides. His deep connection with the Thar turns every moment into a story — carried by the wind, the sand, and his laughter.
This offbeat desert jeep safari near Kuldhara takes you beyond tourist paths and into the wilderness — through soft rolling dunes, wild desert flora, and the quiet company of chinkaras, foxes, and desert birds.
As the sun dips low, stop for chai and sunset views, watching the desert turn gold and crimson. Then, settle near a bonfire under open skies, where dinner is served fresh and simple — warm bread, smoky curries, and silence between stories.
Spend the night on charpais beneath a blanket of stars, surrounded by the soft hum of the desert. Wake to the sunrise, have breakfast back at Dreamtime, and carry with you a calm that only the Thar can offer.
It’s not just a safari.
It’s a night in the desert’s embrace — a memory written in sand and starlight.
Lodhruva JainTemple Tour
Sacred Stillness | Golden Carvings | Timeless Grace
Just a short drive from Kuldhara, the Lodhruva Jain Temple rises quietly from the desert — carved in golden sandstone and bathed in soft sunlight. Once the ancient capital of Jaisalmer, Lodhruva still holds the spiritual calm of centuries past.
Each pillar and arch tells a story — of devotion, craftsmanship, and patience. The intricate carvings, delicate latticework, and sacred ambiance make this one of the most beautiful Jain temple near Jaisalmer.
Visit in the early morning or late afternoon when the temple glows gold against the desert light — a photographer’s dream and a pilgrim’s peace.
For travelers seeking offbeat heritage experiences in Rajasthan, Lodhruva is not just a stop — it’s a quiet moment of awe.
Here, even silence feels sacred.
Khaba Fort Tour
Ruins | Desert Views | Forgotten Stories
Perched over a cluster of abandoned villages, Khaba Fort stands as one of Jaisalmer’s most fascinating remnants of history. Once inhabited by the Paliwal Brahmins — the same community that lived in Kuldhara — the fort now watches over empty homes and shifting sands, holding stories only the wind remembers.
Walk through its weathered courtyards and crumbling bastions to feel the desert’s depth and solitude. From the top, the view of the Thar Desert stretches endlessly — dunes, acacia trees, and the echo of a world that once thrived here.
It’s a favorite for history lovers, photographers, and those exploring offbeat Jaisalmer. Visit in the soft light of sunrise or sunset, when the stones glow and the silence deepens.
For those seeking heritage tours near Kuldhara, Khaba offers not just a view of the past, but a quiet dialogue with time itself.
The walls don’t speak — but they remember.
Riverside or Oasis Hi-Tea
Seasonal River | Golden Hour | Peaceful Moments
During the monsoon and early winter, the Kak River flows gently near Kuldhara — a rare desert sight. We host tranquil hi-tea and snack sessions by the riverside, where guests can relax, read, or simply watch the reflection of the sky in the water. When the seasonal river runs dry, we shift the same experience to a nearby cooling oasis. It is an equally breathtaking and a rejuvenating experience.
Morning or evening, the setting is serene — soft winds, tea in hand, and the hum of life in the distance. On request, we can also arrange for a local flute master to fill the silence with soft and soothing desert music, making it one of the most peaceful things to do in Jaisalmer.
Sometimes, the simplest things become your favorite memories.
Live Chulha Dinner & Bonfire Nights
Traditional Cooking | Open-Fire Dining | Desert Evenings
As the sun sinks behind the dunes and the desert air turns cool, Dreamtime transforms into a glowing courtyard of warmth, fragrance, and firelight.
Our chulha dinner is an open-fire culinary experience where food is cooked slowly on traditional clay stoves — just as it’s done in desert homes. Flames flicker, spices bloom, and every dish carries the soul of the Thar.
Set around a bonfire, guests savor authentic Rajasthani flavors, handmade breads, and soulful, home-style meals. The night often fills with the melodies of the alghoza, weaving through the wind — gentle, rhythmic, and deeply moving.
Sometimes there’s song, sometimes silence — but always connection.
This isn’t just dinner — it’s a traditional Rajasthani food experience rooted in community, simplicity, and the timeless beauty of the desert.
For travelers seeking local dining in Kuldhara, our chulha dinners are as authentic as the land itself — slow, warm, and unforgettable.
Mornings at Dreamtime
Sunrise | Stillness | The Sweet Songs of the Desert
At Dreamtime, mornings rise gently — not with alarms, but with birdsong, soft light, and the scent of desert air.
The first rays of the sun spill over the dunes and the oasis, making the fossil rocks glow golden, as if the desert itself is waking slowly with you.
Begin your day on the Machaan, our elevated sit-out surrounded by trees — the perfect place to stretch, breathe, or simply watch the sky unfold. Wander through sandy paths lined with trees, settle into a hammock with a book, or enjoy a quiet session of yoga or meditation under open skies.
At The Fossil Café’s sunrise corner, sip chai or enjoy a peaceful breakfast as the light warms the courtyard. The world here moves unhurried — every sound, every breeze feels like part of a larger rhythm.
For travelers seeking things to do in Kuldhara beyond sightseeing, mornings at Dreamtime are moments of presence — perfect for reflection, creativity, and connection.
Here, you don’t chase the day — you wake with it, slowly and completely.
That’s what makes Dreamtime the most relaxing stay near Jaisalmer, and a true eco resort with experiences that begin in stillness and end in belonging.
At sunrise, even the fossils remember to shine.
