Welcome to Shiv Tara Desert Camp, a desert camp located in the most hidden area of the Thar Desert of Jaisalmer, in Rajasthan. Shiv Tara Desert Camp replicates the original nomadic tents from the marwar families. It seamlessly blends into the landscape of this Natural Area. At the heart of the Thar Desert of Jaisalmer, the traveller is immersed in a stunning natural landscape.

My friend and i cam here with the expectations of having a good time, instead we had the best expressions of our trip!! An amazing camel ride in the sand dunes with an incredible sunset followed up with warm welcome, live local music and dancing with others from our camp. A wonderful time that wont forget anytime soon.

Well my friend, we have something in the desert and that is called services and affordability of those services. I have been to many camps but quality and hygiene is very hard to find. But here you got to try... It's good out here.. be sure to bring your hookah... Night is full of stars and with bong and fire you can feel it too... Tag me there in your story... And let other enjoy night in the desert with stars and bongs...🐙🐙🐙 Love.. White Beard...

We had a truly wonderful experience at Shiv Tara Desert Camp, every part of our stay was special. The cultural show performers were outstanding much better than others we had come across, the food was also some of the best we have had during our stay. Finally the service was brilliant every request was greeted with smile and willingly carried out.

I am a tour operator and i planned to visit Jaisalmer and i booked shiv tara desert camp. As i used to make rajasthan trips for my traveler and i heard a lot about this place. And shiv tara place was up to the mark according to my expectations and the best part of the package is the cultural and folk program and the camel safari too. It is a completely new experience of staying in a tent and great hospitality.

Very good place to stay, Service is the best. Food also of good quality. I went there by looking at review and now once i visited this place i am giving 5 star. Specially the owner there Mr. Tarun, he is so helpful and polite he alone can bring tourist to this place with his nature. Very helpful and good person. I will definitely visit again.
