|
Deserts always have an unique magical charm since a long time, and the

villages, varied wildlife and the mystic desert sands. Camel Safaris

Safari would remind you of Lawrence of Arabia on his epic journey across
the Sahara Desert, or of Marco Polo, on the historic silk route or a
medieval trader leading his caravan through the spice route or a royal
caravan serai moving to the medieval kingdoms of Thar Desert.
Camel Safari through Great Indian Desert

Great Indian Desert offers a variety of safaris, which includes short
range treks around Jaisalmer to extensive treks. These treks provide an
opportunity to get a close look of Indian traditional life in the desert,
their hardships and the beauty. In comparison to the African deserts, the
Great Indian Desert may not have large expanses of sand dunes and
incredible spaces of wilderness, but it has some glorious citadels and
colourful unspoilt villages. The sand dunes of the Great Indian Desert are
much easily reachable from air or rail than those of many African deserts.
