Moving to India and Camel Safaris in Rajasthan

When you move to India with IntlMOVE, you will get to experience a whole new world.

One adventure that you can experience is to go on a camel safari.

The best time to take a camel safari is in the winter, when the weather cooperates.

November to April is usually the best time to take this adventure in Rajasthan.

Taking a camel safari will give you a glimpse into the culture and life of different people in India.

India is such a large country, that you can have completely different experiences throughout the country.

Desert life, rural life and city life are much different, so learning about all nuances will give you an experience that can enrich your life. 

Camels are often called the ships of the dessert.

These animals are built for dessert living, so they are an integral part of your explorative journey.

When living in Rajasthan, India, you can take camel safaris in the desert of Thar.

The sand dunes and the sites and sounds are unique to anywhere else in the world. 

Although the safaris vary, there are many things you will likely see while on this adventure.

You will be able to see the small villages and experience the culture of desert living.

You might visit Lodurva, which are architectural ruins in the famous desert.

The sand dunes of Samm and the water source of Mools are magnificent sites you will be able to enjoy.

There are also temples, palaces and other attractions that draw many people to take these tours annually. 

Camel safaris can range from a couple days to several weeks.

There are even day-long trips available if the overnight stays are too daunting for you.

When you take a camel safari, you will be provided with a camel, food, water, a tent and some other necessary items for your trip.

Each safari varies, so check with your guide beforehand and get a list of items you will need to bring.

While on the journey, the camps are usually set up in villages.

During the evenings you can learn about local cultures.

You can gain insights into the traditional life of desert living in India, which will give you a new appreciation for your country. 

When you take a camel safari, there are many things you need to remember.

The nights can be very cold, so make sure you pack sweaters, jackets and other warm clothes.

The days can be very warm, so you will also need to bring clothes that are suitable for hotter temperatures.

Sunscreen, hats and sunglasses can also help protect you from the daytime weather and sun exposure.

Many people choose to wear scarves around their necks and head to avoid sun damage.

Sleeping bags and warm blankets are also a necessity for the trip.

These are things you will need to provide yourself.

When you move to India, IntlMOVE can ship all of your safari gear to your new home along with the rest of your household goods. 

If water is not part of your safari package, make sure you have enough water to avoid dehydration.

You will also want to bring a first aid kit for emergencies.

Carry a lighter and knife just in case you need these items.

You will be traveling through the desert, so you will not have any access to stores.

Come prepared and your camel safari will be much more enjoyable. 

Most camel tours in this area of India begin in Jaisalmer or Jaipur.

You can travel to both of these cities by plane, train or road.

When you move to the state of Rajasthan, IntlMOVE can ship all of your household goods and personal effects to India.

After you arrive and get settled, you can start to enjoy all the adventures that India offers.

Camel safaris are just one of the many things you can do to learn about India and its unique culture.
