JEEP SAFARI AROUND RAJASTHAN

The desert jeep safaris can be arranged with any of your tour of Rajasthan.It can be the addition of one or two days in the original itinerary according to your test. The desert jeep safari is an exposure to the desert and to the philosophy of the people living in their natural environment.

Desert Jeep safari is your window of the Thar desert and its inhabitants. You stop at various places to interact with  the  people  surviving in extreme condition of  whether and  surroundings. Visit to Meghawal ( carpet weaver), Kumhar ( pottery maker),  Chamar ( shoe maker), Raika ( Camel breeder) and Bishnoi ( People who  live with  nature on eco friendly principles) house make your day a life time memory.

The desert tells a story of men living in perfect harmony with a hostile nature. These simple people have evolved a culture which is simple, refreshing and at ease  with  their  surroundings. The manner in which Thar Desert people have survived with dignity on natural resources without any outside aid, serves as  a contrast to many a materialistic modern society.

The Thar  Desert  located in the  western  India, is  a fast  emerging  tourist attraction. Many may not consider largely untouched desert landscapes with thin and scattered vegetation as ideal for tourists.  Its inhabitants, however, make this place different.Unlike the Sahara and Kalahari Deserts, Thar Desert teems with  life, with  color and with  contrast. This unique desert cannot be explained. Only by coming and seeing for oneself  can the stranger absorb its rare beauty.

It boasts a people,fiercely proud of their cultural heritage and traditions;they have  their own  pace of life, their  own  philosophy. The human population is scattered over endless miles. Here and there one can see  small  villages and beside them clusters of houses called  DHANIS. Occasionally the village has a single Dhani(small hut) located miles away.An agricultural society itcontinually struggles for its crops and cattle against  difficult weather conditions, and for water, and for their very survival.

Their houses have become things of beauty. Dhanis (small huts) are very well planned for summer, winter and monsoon seasons as well. Natives use neither cement nor bricks.The walls, instead, are built of wood and  mud, the roofs of thatch.  Interior and  exterior  have  thoughtful  and  elaborate features. The women of the families try their best to decorate them with a skill that cannot be matched  elsewhere.  In ever  season  of the  year their  housesn always appear neat and clean.
