Camel country Bikaner dazzles you with its rustic sand charm. Known for some of the best bred camels in Rajasthan and India, Bikaner is synonymous with the 'ship of the desert'.
A tour of Bikaner will showcase the importance of a camel in this arid desert land. A healthy adult camel has the capacity to carry more than 18 quintals of load for a minimum of 4 hours at a stretch without breaking for water or food.
Camel drawn carts form a major part of the Bikaner traffic and blend in perfectly with craggy brown Bikaner. Ride a camel to the Bikaner tour attractions and experience the 'never say die' Rajasthan spirit.
Visit the camel breeding farms in Bikaner, especially the Government Camel Breeding Farm that is located at Jorbeer, Bikaner. Watch gamboling baby camels and relish a glass of fresh camel milk as you watch rebaris milk camels at the farm.
Camel safaris to the villages located in and around Bikaner give you a glimpse of the vibrant culture of this arid world that comes alive with crafts, art, festivals and customs. The sheer joy of swaying in rhythm with the camel and its tinkling trinkets as you feast your eyes on mud huts decorated with patterns etched with lime paste is beyond comparison.
