Additional Information

Our Thar safari covers three major cities of Rajasthan: Bikaner, Jaisalmer, and Jodhpur (Osian), surrounded by vast and endless sand dunes. Thar is not just a place, it’s a culture, a habitat for numerous tribes, animals, and bird species. The resilience of this unique ecosystem, where flowers bloom (a species of cactus) and reptiles emerge from the soil despite the harsh, water-scarce summer conditions, will astonish you. Evenings are unexpectedly cooler, providing a picturesque setting for relaxing among the dunes with a warm campfire and melodious folk music under the innumerable stars in the sky. Our camel safari, aptly named THAR CAMEL SAFARI, reflects the essence of this region, embodying local traditions and the vibrant earth tones. The iconic desert ship, the CAMEL, is an indispensable part of life in this part of the world.

  • Vegetarian option is available, please advise at time of booking if required

A great experience - We did the camel tour on my birthday with the whole family, six of us. Chhotaram was very nice and speaks very good English, which he taught himself as an autodidact. He first showed us around the very impressive temple. Then we went through the picturesque and amazingly green desert. There were six camels waiting for us. I was a bit nervous about how easy it would be to ride the camels. My worries were unfounded, the saddles were very comfortable and safe, most of the camels were very tame and relaxed. It was beautiful to ride through the desert. There were also downhill and uphill sections, which was fun. We saw antelopes, peacocks and large lizards. There are apparently lots of snakes too, but we didn't see any. I felt like an adventurer from the 19th century. đŸ˜‚ The food was delicious and the village was very well kept and it was interesting to see life in the countryside. The ride in the Jeep was an experience in itself (especially at night!), the back seat was relatively tight with six people. Overall a great experience!

Truly authentic camel safari. If you can’t make it to Jaisalmer make this your desert experience - Highly recommend! Especially if you can’t make it to Jaisalmer. Chhotoram’s service and company were excellent. He has a relaxed manor and is engaging to chat with on your drive to the desert (about an hour from Johdpur). The camel safari was a once in a lifetime experience. The camels and the guide were fabulous. It is something we will never forget. We visited a small village which was welcoming and so beautiful. It felt like a once in a lifetime experience.

Unmatched camel ride experience - My visit to Jodhpur was unplanned. I visited silawas and met Chottaram ji. He told about this Camel safari that they offer. We were 3 people and words cannot match the experience that we had. We had Camel ride of almost 1.5 hrs and home made food in some village khetasar where he took us by camels. It was unexpected and unmatched experience of Camel ride.

Amazing experience - We loved our camel safari, the tour was well organised and communication was great. The journey to Osian is about 70-80 minutes from Jodhpur and even this was enjoyable as Chhotu was so friendly and informative on life in India and his village that this was just as fun as the camel safari. The camel ride in the desert was brilliant and we got some lovely chai and met the camel tour guides family in his home before travelling back with Chhotu to Jodhpur. Would 100% recommend.
