Desert Safari
In the far west of Rajasthan lies the
Thar desert. Set amidst endless rocks and sand is
the golden city of Bikaner, once a
stopover for the caravanserais, which travelled
from China to the Middle East along the
Silk Route. This golden citadel with it's many
turrets is where your desert safari
begins.
To experience the unique
atmosphere, beauty and total silence of the desert, we offer you an
unforgettable experience. There are possibilities galore; In villages
nearby Bikaner, we have discovered golden sand dunes , complete with
everything you need for a truly unique experience.
Travel for an hour, an
afternoon, a day, three days or more, with jeep* and/or camel. We
provide camels and english speaking guides. A jeep can be arranged for
those who wish to continue their safari on four wheels instead of four
legs!
Visit the Rajput
villages far out in the desert. Meet with their inhabitants who have
never left the desert, many not ever having visited Bikaner itself.
Their children will welcome you in their unique way with true desert
hospitality, hoping you might have some sweets in your pocket!
Picknick wherever you
like, cook your dinner out in the wilds. Ride up into the dunes and
make yourself comfortable in the sand to watch the sun set over the
desert, drinking tea and listening to the unique sounds of the nature.
An unforgettable
evening awaits you when you return to your camp on camel, your route
lit by starlight. Relax on comfortable Indian style beds named "charpais",
maybe with a chilled glass of beer*. The camp is lit with oil lamps
and in the winter months a bonfire will add to the atmosphere. While
relaxing, dinner will be served, accompanied by music from the rural
folks. Dancers will give a performance like you have never seen
before. With the ever increasing rhythm of the drums, they pirouette
faster and faster around the bonfire, finishing in a climax which has
to be seen to be believed.These dancers are famous all over the region
and are often requested to dance at Royal Weddings.
Stay in the camp, out
in a tent* or sleep in the dunes under the stars. Enjoy the romance
and the mystery of such a night. Skies unlike any in the west, their
brightness only accentuated by the total darkness of your
surroundings.
If you are looking for more comfort, return to Bikaner for your
overnight stay. We have accommodation to suit all tastes and all
budgets - from a clean simple guesthouse to five star luxury. We also
offer unique programmes in and around Bikaner for sightseeing by
camel, jeep or car, always with the services of our local staff to
take the best possible care of you
