Camel Safari Rajasthan India


When it comes to exploring the true colors of India, one thing that truly deserves a special mention is the Camel safari in India. Taking a camel safari is a unique deja vu which assures you having a amazing getaway quite different from the other holidays. The very idea of taking a camel ride through the rippling sand dunes and camping under the stars followed by the bonfire can mesmerize you for a moment. Clambering onto the camel and riding through the yellow world of sands will give you the fair idea as why camels are called the ships of the deserts. Besides taking the camel ride you will also get the opportunity to explore the fascinating Thar Desert, spread to the total area of 2,50,000 km.

Camel safari holds an exotic fascination for any traveler to India. Most camel safaris mainly covers the area around Jaisalmer, Bikaner and Jodhpur, popularly known as the desert circuit tour. All these cities are well connected by air, train and road. The duration of the camel safari tour generally rests from one to two weeks. There is no specific route that you will have to follow, but the big cities are usually not covered. Usually the camel safaris are conducted during the winter season, from mid October to February end.

The camel Safari Tour along with giving you the opportunity to enjoy the desert safari will also let you explore the historical and architectural significance of Rajasthan.

While taking the camel ride, we recommend you to stop at the some of the remote villages and discover the true colors of India.
