Thar Expedition – Bikaner and Jaisalmer Trip

Our Bollywood movies have shown culture, tradition, and people of Rajasthan in various movies. It has created a bit real and a bit fake image of Rajasthan. These movies have depicted that the whole area of the state is desert, but a part of it yes whereas another of it no. Movies showcased that all the buses are overcrowded, and all Rajasthani wear Dhoti, Kurta and Pagdi with long mustaches. All of it is not true but not entirely false too. It seems that Rajasthan is muddled somewhere in between the modern and traditional outlook of India. Believe me that it would not really scare you but rather presence of traditional values with modern outlook provides enigmatic charisma to Rajasthan.
We do not want to break the fake identity that has been settled in your mind. We want you to take to far end of Rajasthan where customs and rituals are still stronger than modern society. At this land, guest is still welcomed with the tradition welcome song i.e. “Padharo Mhare Desh” which literally means that you are welcome to my state. You have seen this land with the eye of directors who could not do justice to warmth of Rajasthani people and beauty of Rajasthan.
Why should you not backpack your luggage and feel the calmness, serenity, and welcome of people of Rajasthan. We want you to experience the Rajasthan in the best possible time of year.
In this trip we will explore the palaces and places in Bikaner and Jaisalmer from Jan 24 to Jan 27. We will spend one day in Bikaner and remaining three days in Jaisalmer.
