Khuri or Sam

I heard there are two camel safari places in Jaisalmer,Khuri sand dunes and Sam sand dunes. Could you let me know your opinion on the difference between the two and which one you feel is more worth going.

I'd go to Khuri . . . actually, I DID go to Khuri. Great places. Less mob-ized than Sam. One of the most peaceful places I found in India. The camels and drivers provided to me by Mr. Singh were the best. Hands down, Khuri. (A several hour bus ride from Jaiselmer)

Yes there is a public bus and I think only one that goes to Khuri from Jaisalmer and return in the after noon.
Khuri is about 40 kms from Jaisalmer so the bus should take maximum 2 hours.
This is a sensitive border area so some restrictions may be in place.
