Camel Safari |
Quite the most unusual outdoors activity in
Rajasthan is to take a camel safari for some of the
entire duration of your trip. While the experience
can be memorable. It provides an alternative way of
exploring this desert state. About the only thing
you will have to get used to, when you plan a camel
safari, is the ungainly movement of the ship of the
desert. The camel may look aloof, but is the
lifeline for the people of the desert whose
communication needs depend on this vital beast for
their very survival. Most journeys into the
hinterlands are still made on camel-back, or in
camel carts, and the camel is also used for
ploughing the arid fields of the desert. A saddle is
mounted across the camel's hump, providing
comfortable seating for two, legs astride.

embarking on a Jeep Safari you are provided with a
lifetime's opportunity to explore the hidden charms
of some of India's most remote and colorful
villages. Rajasthan is replete with ruins of forts,
temples, wildlife and tribal dominated areas all of
which can be explored through a Jeep Safari.

clean and pure lineage.
