You will be escorted from your hotel in Bikaner in a private air conditioned vehicle and start your tour covering the major attractions of this unique city with your English Speaking local Guide.

Start at the 16th century Junagarh Fort, an impressive structure with its imposing bastions, high walls, palaces, courtyards, pavilions and balconies, all carved intricately from stone. Some say the real charm of the Fort lies in the beauty of its painted and embellished interiors. Rich mirror work, enamel work, gold work, shell finish, and lacquer work come together to create impressive art. The palaces also contain royal relics like cannons, thrones, beds, swings, palanquins and even a plane.

Following, your guide will take you to the Old City where you will explore on foot and by tuk-tuk. In the old city, you will see the famous red sandstone havelis, walk through Bada Bazaar market, and visit the Jain temple with its views of the city. We will also take an auto rickshaw (tuk tuk) ride through its narrow streets.

You will have time to break for lunch (Lunch not included).

After that visit the Camel Breeding Farm, a National Research Center for Camels. Here, you can visit the camel pens and camel museum, learn about camel breeding and take a camel ride. You may want to taste the camel-milk kulfi (ice-cream).

To conclude, you will be driven back to your hotel in Bikaner.
