Camel Safari in Rajasthan

Take the road less travelled by exploring the best camel safari tours in Rajasthan while riding through the golden desert and witnessing the rural and rustic desert lifestyle of India. The Great Indian Desert of Rajasthan can be discovered navigating while sitting on the camels which allow you to have one great and memorable experience. The Aravalli Range is one of the world's oldest mountain ranges and boasts of sandy fields, small dunes, beautiful hills and mesmerizing sunrises and sunsets. A camel safari in Rajasthan is the perfect approach to invest energy appreciating the natural and imperial Rajasthan. Camel Safari is a unique adventure experience, which takes you through the brilliant sands of the tremendous Thar Desert.

The unique cultural performances on the sand dunes, the camps set up for the explorers, the conventional Rajasthani dinners and the pleasant villages with inviting people, all together make Camel Safaris one of the most exceptional experiences. If you are looking to enjoy a camel safari in Rajasthan, your best bet would be to head over to Jaisalmer, Bikaner or Oisan. Located in the Thar desert, these towns provide a lovely space for some adventurous camel safaris.Gliding atop a colourfully decorated camel through the stark sand dunes of the desert feels fantastic; it is a unique way of experiencing the locality and interacting with the residents of the desert. The long hours spent with the camel also give you a unique perspective on the animal itself, making for an altogether wonderful, comprehensive experience.

The cooler months are a better option for enjoying such safaris since the softer rays of the sun make travelling across the desert a better experience at this time. Camping in the chilly desert at night is also a fascinating aspect of a camel safari in Rajasthan. To name a few highlights, a camel safari offers astonishing desert sceneries, flavors of traditional Rajasthan, incredible star gazing and the most memorable experience of riding a camel. Though there are many other means of touring, Camel safari tours in Rajasthan is the best way to explore this mighty desert and historically rich state of India.
