Escapes of the World" (Harpers Aboard - June 2002, pg-10)
The Osian camel camp is the first of its kind in Rajasthan, India.
This ancient village is the gateway into the merciless Thar Desert
and is legendary for its mesmerizing 6th and 8th century temples,
sand-dunes and diversity of Rajasthani culture and tradition. Besides
the comfortable camel safari one also gets to see proud local tribes
Bishnois, Bhils, shepherds, potters, weavers etc. In their natural
surroundings one cannot miss the various varieties of desert wildlife
- the likes of bluebulls, gazelles, foxes, peacocks and partridges.
Once at the camp nestled in the dunes your host Reggie Singh, grandson

evening of splendour with cocktails, folk entertainment and a semi
formal candle lit dinner.
