The experience of actually going to a place which is where others cannot go is the epitome of luxury travel in India and makes it very special.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dine amongst the dunes in Jaisalmer<\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10399 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-Indian-man-plays-traditional-musical-instrument-in-Jaipur-Rajasthan-India-699054368.jpg\" alt=\"Man in a colourful turban playing traditional musical instrument in Rajasthan\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-Indian-man-plays-traditional-musical-instrument-in-Jaipur-Rajasthan-India-699054368.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-Indian-man-plays-traditional-musical-instrument-in-Jaipur-Rajasthan-India-699054368-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-Indian-man-plays-traditional-musical-instrument-in-Jaipur-Rajasthan-India-699054368-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-Indian-man-plays-traditional-musical-instrument-in-Jaipur-Rajasthan-India-699054368-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-Indian-man-plays-traditional-musical-instrument-in-Jaipur-Rajasthan-India-699054368-255x170.jpg 255w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-Indian-man-plays-traditional-musical-instrument-in-Jaipur-Rajasthan-India-699054368-345x230.jpg 345w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>Exquisite cuisine is a hallmark of all Luxury Gold tours. With many great culinary experiences to choose from, one of the most sublime on Imperial Rajasthan is dining among the dunes in Jaisalmer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOne of the Imperial Desert cities, Jaisalmer is a very unique place,\u201d says Viren. \u201cIt used to be part of the Silk Road. Everything in the city is yellow in colour because of the local yellow sandstone. The honey-coloured Fort has actually got 2000 people living inside.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is in this city that you will experience a truly unique dinner as the sun sets over the sand dunes. A sumptuous nomadic banquet is served under the desert stars as local musicians play traditional tunes into the gentle breeze of the night. \u201cYou&#8217;re sitting under the stars and it&#8217;s quiet and suddenly you hear the sounds coming from the background and there&#8217;s a musician playing here,\u201d says Viren. \u201cIt\u2019s an unforgettable moment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>\u00a0<\/em><em>Read more about this experience: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/experience-private-live-music\/\">For Your Ears Only: Experience the Privilege of Private Live Music<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No ask too great<\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10400 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-0472WWLG2018.jpg\" alt=\"Luxury Gold guest at a restaurant table with a lobster dish\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-0472WWLG2018.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-0472WWLG2018-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-0472WWLG2018-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-0472WWLG2018-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-0472WWLG2018-255x170.jpg 255w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Medium-0472WWLG2018-345x230.jpg 345w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>Whilst following an expertly crafted itinerary, the tour allows plenty of time to tailor to your individual preferences. And your Travel Concierge is on hand to help with that in any way possible. \u201cSome people choose to get up early to see sights not scheduled in the tour. I help with research, planning and arranging transport, there is nothing I do not know about the area. I also know the best spots that you may not find in a guidebook, for tailored experiences and special occasions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI\u2019m also your expert for dinner reservations and recommendations during your free time. If you like food with flavours, there&#8217;s there&#8217;s nothing better than India and the vegetarian food is wonderful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Hear from another Luxury Gold Travel Concierge: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/travel-concierge-jameel-south-africa\/\">Cape expectations: how Travel Concierge Jameel makes South Africa sing<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Elevating the everyday<\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cEvery step of the way we look to do that extra something,\u201d says Viren. \u201cI really get to know my guests be able to shape ideas and suggestions.
