Since the moment I set foot in Jaisalmer, the warmth and hospitality of the people enveloped me, making me feel cherished and embraced. Attending the wedding of my host's niece was a heartwarming experience, weaving me intricately into the fabric of their family. Every individual extended their arms to me, embracing me as one of their own. Through my two weeks of volunteering, I not only forged meaningful connections but also gleaned invaluable insights and knowledge. My gratitude towards Devi Ji knows no bounds for granting me this unforgettable journey in the city of golden hearts.

Where to start... From the minute we arrived, we were welcomed into the family. Everyone was beyond lovely. The food was amazing, the tasks were short and super simple leaving me plenty of time to go out and explore the beautiful town. The hotel was beautiful with stunning views on the rooftop and the camel safari tour is out of this world <3 I had a great experience! Thank you so much V and Devilal and the entire team 🩷

An absolutely great opportunity to see a beautiful part of India, and meet some great people. I applied here to start my trip into India in a smaller town to get oriented, and Jaisalmer turned out to be beautiful (though often difficult for me), Devilal and the rest of the staff were SO accommodating, and gave me a bunch of memorable experiences, as well as useful help for my future travel. One unusual thing was that there wasn't any work to do, so I felt almost guilty about the immense hospitality, and had more free time than expected. Overall, highly recommend

This was my first volunteering experience in worldpackers with Devilal. He is such a kind, friendly and fun loving person. He took care me a lot. I must say it's not only volunteering job I did lot of things during this period. I have travelled, met new people, enjoyed Rajasthani food , desert Safari and many more things. I felt like I booked trip as he gave me comfort zone to do the job.It was the off season so there was very less work to do. Rest of the time we used to travell and explore the city.I really appreciate for his time, kindness and company . I wish to be there again someday 😊

It was my first Worldpackers experience. When I reached the host Mr. Devilal arrange a car to pick up me from station. He introduced me with locals and gave info about local sightseeing. He is a friendly person. I stayed here in off season so they have less work to do, although he and his staff are very kind, it feels like home. Here I painted some tables and chairs at their another hotel Heera Court (they have total four hotels in Jaisalmer). We usually talks at nights with fellow tourist and local peoples on their rooftop. I stayed there for 16 days and it was great days of my life. Thanku

Jaisalmer is an amazing city; apart from the heat, everything is good. I stayed there for 15 days; because of rich history, I got so much to explore. Since it was my first solo trip, I was a bit nervous regarding place, hosts and people. But the owners and the staff at the guest house made me very comfortable and I left the place with mixed feelings. The owners offered me the complete flexibility to work and helped me whenever needed. Since they've 4 hotels in Jaisalmer itself, you have a variety of tasks to work. The most amazing experience was the Desert Safari and sleeping at terrace.

O senhor Devi e toda a equipe do the guest house Palacr foram muito legais comigo e pude aprender muito sobre a cultura local e como viver no deserto de Thar, Jaisalmer é uma cidade muito interessante pois fez parte da rota da seda. O trabalho é bem tranquilo e te dão liberdade para que faça seus horarios e trabalhe com o que mais goste, a localização é espetacular muito próxima do forte e do rooftop pode vê-lo e aproveitar o maravilhoso pôr do sol. O hotel é lindo e toda a cidade tem uma arquitetura fantástica, realmente recomendo para quem esteja querendo voluntariar em Jaisalmer!

Jaisalmer'deki gönüllülük deneyimim beklentilerimin çok ötesindeydi. Devilal beni ilk günden itibaren büyük bir misafirperverlikle karşıladı. Hem konaklama hem de gönüllülük süreci çok düzenliydi ama aynı zamanda özgür hissettiğim, şehri ve kültürü keşfedebildiğim bir alan da vardı. Yerel yemekler, altın şehirdeki gün batımları ve kurulan dostluklar unutulmazdı. Kendimi burada gerçekten ait hissettim. Her şey için sonsuz teşekkür ederim. Yolu buraya düşen herkese tavsiye ederim!

I giorni trascorsi allo the guest house sono stati davvero piacevoli. È un hotel a conduzione familiare e tutti ti fanno sentire come se fossi parte della famiglia. Lo staff è composto da soli uomini, ma mi sono sempre sentita al sicuro con loro. Gentilezza è la parola chiave. Il lavoro consisteva in qualche ora da trascorrere alla reception la mattina o il pomeriggio e un aiuto al ristorante la sera. Questo si trova su un rooftop fantastico. Consiglio questo host, è stata un'esperienza che rifarei ancora. Grazie, Devilal. Grazie a tutta la famiglia e a tutti voi.
