Four Wheel Drive in Rajasthan ( 13 Days)
Contrary
to the swaying moments of camel you may enjoy a desert safari in India on a
jeep. Discover the royal land of Rajasthan in a jeep. The travel destination
of the Thar Desert in Rajasthan beckons all adventure seekers to the jeep safari.
Check out the stretches of sand dunes. The jeep safari in Indian desert will
captivate you in the charming culture of the Rajasthan.
Most jeep safari operators route journeys through the desert so you are close
to villages, but remain hidden from them. In the afternoons, trips to the
villages can be planned. An advance group moves ahead to set the evening's
camp-usually self-sustained, with its own kitchen (food is cooked over wood
fire), and tented accommodation. Baths are prepared for the travelers, and
kerosene lamps used for lighting. A bonfire is organized around which evening
cocktails and dinner is served. Here, in this enchanted setting with the stars
looming large under the dark sky, village balladeers and minstrels are invited
to sing, dance, play a musical instrument or two.
Most meals will be Rajasthani cuisine with vegetables and, usually, chicken
and mutton cooked in fiery spices (after a while you get addicted to the chillies).
Buttermilk and yogurt accompaniments are best to cool (and calm) the palate.
However, on request and with advance notice, simple Western pasta and salads
can be prepared. Don't ask for sandwiches, however, for bread is an unknown
factor in the villages, and you'll have to get by on the more-than-sufficient
Indian varieties that will be served before you.
It goes without saying that winter is the season for such jeep safaris (October
to March) and to attempt it in summer would be impossible. In the cold months,
the dry climate and the reflection of the sun's heats on the sand can make
the day under the sun warm, and the nights bitterly cold. It is advisable,
therefore, to carry a mix of woolens and lighter clothing, and to have suntan
lotions and moisturizers for the skin.

tourists. We at touristplacesinindia Pvt. Ltd. Have experienced conducting
