Udaipur to Jaisalmer by road
The first two hours cross the Aravalli hills past Ranakpur. After Pali the land goes flat and dry, and from Jodhpur it is a straight desert highway to Jaisalmer.
| Leg | Distance | Drive time | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Udaipur → Ranakpur | ~95 km | 2 hr | NH-27 to Gogunda, then a winding forest road down the hills |
| Ranakpur → Jodhpur | ~160 km | 2 hr 40 min | Through Sadri and Pali; we use the Jodhpur bypass |
| Jodhpur → Pokhran | ~170 km | 2 hr 30 min | Straight desert highway, few places to stop |
| Pokhran → Jaisalmer | ~110 km | 1 hr 30 min | Wind turbines and open desert; watch for animals on the road |
After Jodhpur there are long stretches without a good restaurant or washroom. We stop at Jodhpur and Pokhran; tell the driver if you need a halt in between.

Which car should you book?
1 to 3 people with cabin bags: a sedan is the cheapest way to go.
4 adults with big suitcases: take the Ertiga. Four people and four suitcases do not fit in a sedan.
Family of 5–6: the Ertiga, or an Innova Crysta if you want more leg room on a long drive.
8 to 12 people: one Tempo Traveller costs less than two cars and keeps the group together.
How the drive goes
This plan follows the booking box at the top. Change the pickup time or add a stop there and the timings here change with it.
- Hotel pickup in Udaipur
The driver calls you the evening before and reaches 10 minutes early.
- Lunch on the Jodhpur bypass
About halfway.
- Drop at your hotel or camp
In Jaisalmer city, at the fort gate, or at your desert camp at Sam.
Before you go
Start early: leave by 6 AM on the one-day trip. You reach Jaisalmer before sunset, and the desert road is safer in daylight.
Two days is easier: a night in Jodhpur breaks the drive in half and gives you Ranakpur and Mehrangarh on the way.
Hotels inside Jaisalmer fort: cars cannot enter the fort. The driver drops you at the main gate and your hotel sends someone for the bags.
Summer: from April to June the afternoon heat on the desert stretch is severe. Start even earlier and carry water.
Drop points in and around Jaisalmer
The fare covers any address in Jaisalmer city. Desert camps are further out, so add the Sam drop in the booking box.
