Tells You Some Of The Facts About His Safari ! |
|
What
Type of Safari is it? Where do You Go ?
The
ships of desert, Camels, are marvelous creatures who will transport
our camping equipment, baggage, and enable us to discover some of the
beautiful and relatively unexplored regions of Rajasthan (India). There
are no hard and fast rules regarding your safari as each expedition
is unique in itself.
En
route you and your friends or family are the only ones for miles around
the starting and finishing point. Your safari depends on the season,
days available and personal interests, but for your convenience, the
details will be made available in advance for your approval.You need
not be super fit like "He Man" for this great endeavor but just
a little resilient. You will be provided with expert guides, well versed
in bush lore, botany, Orinthology and take pleasure in sharing their
knowledge with you. Once you are in rhythm with your surroundings, habitat,
that is at your first camp, your expert guide will explain a rough plan
of your expedition. Your camel syces are a source of strength, guiding
by day, and guarding by the night.
Your encounter with the desert !
It
takes one or two days to become tuned to the pace and accustomed to
the desert life. Most of the endeavor is taken as early as possible
in the cool morning hours, (even by moonlight if timed night). Normally
breakfast is served somewhere en route. Riding camels accompany us throughout
The Safari, carrying light refreshments when they are called for. Meanwhile
the camp is loaded on to the camels and they soon catch up. During the
safari, we encounter many of the tribal people (Jasnathi and Bishnoi)
living their traditional lives. The wild life is shy, although we see
a large variety of tracks. Peacocks, WoodPeckers, Deer, Tneelgai (Blue
Bull) are among the attractions.
By
mid day, it is usually time to look for a camp-site, though sometimes
we must be prepared to go for that extra mile to find the ideal spot.
After a good lunch, a siesta is normally called for until the heat of
the day passes. And at the end of the day, while the sleeping arrangements
are organized, we are free to take an evening stroll and absorb the
total tranquility of the bush at dusk. The camels return from their
afternoon browsing to settle in camp. When the safari is over, the memories
of their outstanding experience will remain with you for many years.
Getting prepared for the encounter !
The
Most important thing is a good positive attitude. Cool clothes, a pair
of tough Trousers, Sweaters, Toiletries, Flashlight, Comfortable Walking

Sun Cream all packed into a soft bag.
