Summary: It was our first visit to Jaisalmer and Marvin was the best. Already before the tour started we were talking several times because of diet restrictions (due to not being used to Indian spices). Marvin was quickly responding and ensuring the would adopt the food choice to our needs. After a pickup from the hotel the unthinkable happened. During a short fuel stop, the gas station personal filled diesel into our petrol car. We were a little worried how we could continue, but it took Marvin about 10 minutes to organize a backup car for the day so the catastrophy was swiftly averted 😁. The tour itself was really nice. Camel ride & jeep safari were really fun. The weather made it impossible to see the real sunset or stars at night but it was still an awesome experience and view in the desert. Finishing up with local entertainment while enjoying one of the best Indian buffets made the package complete. During the whole day Marvin was there to answer any questions we had, even though he was sometimes busy keeping up with answering other customers inquiries. Thanks again for the really nice time.
