Camel Safari

There is no better way of experiencing the romance and mystery of Desert than on camel back safari. The adventure trip inside the Thar desert is the one that you won't be able to forget your whole life. Reason being that beside the blurry, savage and extreme image of this desert lies the adventure of exploring the sandy landscape and passage through remote villages. How about camping on small pond sites, experience spending the night under the stars and live on the tunes of the musicians.

The Camel Safaris in Rajasthan traverse along totally rural terrains still ruled by its romantic past of chivalry, love and passion. The camp is around hamlets along the route so that the tourist gets a closer look into the world of the desert inhabitants. The hot Lunch is served under a cluster of trees. The day is rounded up with dinner being served around a roaring campfire under the starlit sky with local folks singing haunting Rajasthani folk music.
Riding a camel is not the easiest thing in the world. Nor is it a great test for endurance. Yet, it most certainly is a great experience. We provide good, trained, riding camels, which can cover upto 60 km a day. Normally the safari moves 30/40 km a day over a span of 5/7 hours, with halts for lunch, tea and photography. The client rides up in the front seat, with the camel rider, taking the pillion seat. This provides clients with better view and opportunity for photography.
