Khuri Sand Dunes
खुड़ी
A dune camp beyond Sam, with fewer visitors, traditional mud-hut villages and quieter desert nights.
Khuri lies about 45 km southwest of the town. The village has traditional round mud huts, and the surrounding dunes are smaller than those at Sam but much quieter, which suits travelers who want to avoid large tour groups. The activities are the same as at Sam: camel rides at sunset, camp dinners with folk music and dance, and overnight stays in tents or mud huts. You can reach Khuri by private car or join a camel trip run by a local guesthouse. Camp quality varies, so check reviews before booking. The area borders the Desert National Park, and antelope are sometimes spotted here.
