Step beyond the city's magnificent sandstone walls and discover the true soul of Jaisalmer through an intimate culinary experience hosted by a local family whose passion for traditional cooking has been passed down for more than three generations.
Your experience begins with a leisurely walk through the historic lanes of the Golden City, where your local host introduces you to the flavours, spices, and culinary traditions that have shaped the cuisine of the Thar Desert for centuries.
At the family home, you are welcomed with genuine Rajasthani hospitality before joining Chef Gudu and his family, a master of traditional desert cuisine, in preparing an authentic meal using time-honoured techniques. Working with fresh local ingredients, hand-ground spices, and traditional cooking methods, you will learn the secrets behind some of Rajasthan's most cherished recipes. Every dish is prepared by you under the expert guidance of your host, making the experience both personal and rewarding.
As the aromas fill the air, gather with the family on their rooftop terrace to enjoy the meal you have created together. Overlooking the golden rooftops of Jaisalmer and the magnificent fort rising above the city, this memorable dining experience is accompanied by stories, laughter, and conversations that offer a genuine insight into local life.
More than a cooking class, Trek & Cook is an invitation into a family home—a rare opportunity to experience the warmth, traditions, and timeless hospitality that define Rajasthan. It is an authentic cultural encounter that leaves you with lasting memories, meaningful connections, and a deeper appreciation of India's rich culinary heritage.
