Camel
Safari in India 
Deserts
have since long exerted an irresistible charm on the psyche of the humans,
the landscape inspiring different emotions in different people. And what
better way to explore this magical realm than on a camel back, for a camel
safari is one of the most adventurous of experiences, and indeed a novel way
to 'discover' the desert. Camel safaris trace their origins to the time of
trade between India and China, when camel caravans would journey along
established trade routes laden with spices and herbs and jewels. They
provide an opportunity to get a glimpse of traditional Indian life in the
desert, with all the hardships, the beauty and the desolation.
The
accommodation on the way consists of primitive thatched mud huts, and the
way of life-though hospitable-is entirely ethnic.
Camel safaris
generally cover the area around Jaisalmer, Bikaner or Jodhpur, popularly
known as the desert circuit. The duration can vary between one day and two
weeks. Big towns are not usually on the route though there is no definite
route that you have to adopt.
Route
navigation in the desert is an acquired art, and caravans must be manned by
riders who not only know how to study the stars, but also recognise the
shifting sands of the terrain.
A camel safari is exciting, but is
not exactly a relaxing vacation. Unless you are accustomed to horse-riding,
a day-long camel ride will be tiring. Even if you are accustomed to
horse-riding, since the gait of the camel is quite different, it may take
some time to get used to it.
Keeping in your seat as the camel
raises or lowers itself to the ground, can appear at first to be a losing
battle.
However, whether tiring or relaxing, a camel safari is
bound to be a unique experience.
