In the 16th century camel
caravans crossed the mountains to the N along well trodden paths, laden with
precious jewels and spices. Todays Camel Safaris attempt to recreate something of
that spirit of adventure. The Thar desert in Rajasthan with its vast stretches of sand,
dotted with dunes and its own specially adapted shrubs and wild life is ideal territory,
Our expert navigator and the villagers on the way add color to an unforgettable experience
if you are prepared to sit out the somewhat uncomfortable but adventurous ride. You would
not only have the thrill but will have opportunity to gain the first hand experience of
rustic environ, to admire the real Rajasthan and an opportunity to mingle with the local
villagers.
