A camp fire under the stars,
which hang large and brilliant in the sky. The stillness of the
night hides the overriding features of the Thar Desert that is
primieval, savage, lonely. By day its monotonous regularity lies
broken only by occasional groups of colorful people and welcoming
villages, remnants of wayside forts and palaces, each with a story
of past chivalry and glory of the Rajput era.
The Thar is a world of its own, an unrelieved ocean of sand, dotted
with dunes and scarce xerophic shrubs, with its own distinctive
wild life. Here 
amongst the sun and
the sand you will meet some of the most colorful and courageous
people on earth. They respond to the rigors of life in the desert
with the exuberance of music and songs; their vibrant attire,
the upward twist of mustache almost seem to defy the elements.
The best safaris are in the heart of the Thar, around Jodhpur,
Jaisalmer and Bikaner. Variations from 3 days to 15 days are organized,
though the optimum is a week long safari. We take care not to
pass close to any major towns, camping at small villages and avoiding
any proximity to roads with vehicular traffic. We have attempted
to recreate the atmosphere of the old caravan journeys.
Musicians accompany the caravan, and halts are called outside
villages where the local villagers may be invited to join the
campfire hospitality. Add to this sightseeing tours to Jaipur,
Jodhpur, Bikaner and Jaisalmer and you can look forward to a lifetime
experience of the Royal Rajputana. Our desert hospitality team
will lead you through this exciting desert safari.
