The name Jaisalmer is an addiction in itself. You can see the long stretches of sand dunes as far as your eyes can go. The golden crests and troughs provide you with the sense of limitlessness. It is said while in Rome do as the Romans do. Take a camel safari to experience the limitless Thar Desert.
The majority of camel safaris start from the desert fort town of Jaisalmer. In most cases, one camel is provided per person and a camel cart accompanies the entourage, laden with food, utensils and other supplies; it's also an option for anyone who gets sick of sitting on a lurching camel. Tents, food, mineral water, mattresses and an escort are invariably provided, and most operators will also make sure that you get a full dose of local entertainment in the evenings. For longer camel safaris, which are spread over a few days, camps are usually set up at night in the vicinity of villages.
About Camel Safari It's impossible to explain the magic of a Camel Safari. To know it best you have ride a camel in the deserts of Thar in the north Indian state of Rajasthan. Camel Safari's are such animal rides that need both skill and imagination to explore the mirages of desert. Even though camel safaris are also available in Gujarat, the state of Rajasthan attracts the largest chunk of visitors for its well-organised and exciting range of safaris.
Camel Safaris are certainly the ideal way to spend time exploring the rustic and royal Rajasthan. One can ride or walk along leisurely with the safari and enjoy the desertscape. The camel carts are fully equipped and tourists need not bother about comfort in the desert. The camel safari routes takes you to the remote villages, modern cities, ancient temples, magnificent palaces, abandoned fortresses and exotic wildlife of the sandy wilderness and through the expanse of Thar Desert.
Camel Safaris can be tailored to suit every modern traveler. You can opt for a safari that takes only a few hours or one that is perfect for a weekend or a longer one that takes you through the medieval cities and would take a month or so.
Feel the adventure of a Camel Safari, which takes you through the golden sands of the vast Thar Desert. Ride through sandy terrains, taking glimpse of the desert lifestyle through remote villages. The special cultural performances on the sand dunes, the camps set up for the travelers, the traditional Rajasthani meals and the picturesque hamlets with friendly folks, all together make Thar Desert Camel Safaris the fastest selling adventure holidays of Asia.
The ship of the desert, the camel, was domesticated thousands of years ago primarily for the purpose of making tedious journeys through the unrelenting Thar Desert. You may go for a short safari through a typical Rajasthani village or a long-distance expedition lasting a few days. The best times for travelling are the cooler parts of the day, the mornings and evenings. The sights en route will captivate you and become a part of your most treasured memories. There may be barren land for as far as the eyes can see. The sea of yellow shimmering sand looks extraordinary.
Best time to visit The ideal time to visit Jaisalmer is from October to the month of March, although the city remains bustling with tourists through out the year. If you are here not for mere fun but to try for adventures then Jaisalmer is worth visiting round the year. Nevertheless, in summers there are chances you might get affected with heat stroke.
