Camel Safari
A camel safari is indeed a distinct experience, as you will definitely feel a sense of immense thrill while riding it. If you're doing it the first time, try a one day safari only. It was the Rajasthan Tourism Development Corporation (RTDC), in Jaisalmer who first came up with the camel safari idea and it soon caught on in other areas like Pushkar, Bikaner and Shekhawati.


Elephant Safari
Elephant safaris are popular in Kerala and some other sanctuaries in the country. It is true that the rider sits rather high from the ground and you may feel a little uncomfortable at first.
