There is nothing more spectatular for an adventure seeking soul than a thrilling experience in the desert that brings you up close and personal with this barren and remote terrain. Become a desert nomad for one day and night, discover how to ride a camel, be amazed by breathtaking sunset from the dunes, learn to cook an authentic meal on an open fire and get overwhelmed by stargazing in the sky.

    With an exciting jeep ride you'll reach a point from where your two hours camel safari starts. Every participant will have a one camel to fully enjoy the ride and unobstructed views of the desert. You will ride for couple kilometers and enter beautiful sand dunes. Going up and down through the sand will be great fun! We choose less traveled routes to give you a real taste of the solitude of the desert. Finally you will reach a stop to watch an unforgettable sunset from the dunes. As the sun sets, the sky and sands change colours to create one brilliant spectacle creating a golden sea beneath you. The air becomes chillier and it seems as if the whole desert is preparing for the night. Sipping hot chai take some time to fully appreciate this beautiful performance. In the meantime the desert nomad in you would crave for a delicious, authentic desert food. Watch and learn as local people prepare an open fire and an exquisite Indian meal for you. This is the perfect opportunity to learn some Indian cooking techniques and recipes. You can also get involved in the food preparation and cooking if you wish. By then, the sky displays a mesmerizing performance without any light pollution. To end the night enjoy a cup of chai, relax on a simple bed while stargazing and sit around bonfire for a chat with local people or some games. You can decide to sleep outside beneath the twinkling stars or inside a tent. The choice is yours.
