A candle light dinner in Jaisalmer is one of those things that sounds like a cliché until you actually do it. There's a private table set up on a quiet dune, lanterns and candles all the way around, a small folk troupe if you want one, and a full royal thali brought out course by course. Above you: the Thar sky, uninterrupted.
What's included
Every private dining setup we run is customised, but the standard shape is:
- Pickup and drop from your Jaisalmer hotel or camp.
- A private table and lantern setup on a quiet dune — not shared with any other group.
- A welcome drink and starters.
- A multi-course Rajasthani thali (vegetarian, Jain or non-veg — tell us in advance).
- Optional live folk music and dance.
- Time on the dunes after dinner for stargazing.
Other private experiences in the same family
Along with the classic candlelight dinner, our exotic experiences in the Thar page also covers:
- Private sunset picnics on the dunes.
- Stargazing evenings away from town lights.
- Royal candlelight dinners with a fuller decor and cultural programme.
- Private photography tours for couples and honeymooners.
Best for
- Honeymoons and anniversaries.
- Proposals — we can help with the setup.
- Small family celebrations and birthdays.
- Photographers wanting a controlled, private setup.
How to book
These setups are made-to-order, so we need a little notice — usually 24–48 hours is plenty. Message us on WhatsApp or use the contact page with your date, group size and any preferences (menu, decor, music), and we'll come back with a plan and pricing.
