HORSE SAFARI
Like
Camel Safari, Horse Safari in Rajasthan is one of the best ways to
experience the royal grandeur of Rajasthan during your travel. Rajasthan’
- the land of the Rajputs, is known for its kings, fearless warriors and
beautiful women. It’s also known for its forts, palaces, and temples which
are a reminder of t he glorious past. Kingdoms were carved and established
by the Rajputs on horseback, while swords were stained with enemy blood.
Horses were highly priced and a Rajput warrior would give anything to own
a good horse. Great care was taken to breed horses and to keep a clean and
pure lineage. The result of many years of dedication and hardwork helped
create breeds like the Marwari, Kathiawadi and the Sindhi, each having its
own distinct characteristics and bred solely for the purpose of war. These
horses were noted for their stamina and fierce loyalty to their masters.
With these gallant steeds, the Rajputs became famous worldwide. There is
an old saying:
"If God
didn’t create the horse, He wouldn’t have created the Rajputs"
In
Rajasthan, the tourist can today have the pleasure of riding through
trails dotted and marked with cenotaphs and tombstones of many brave and
valiant. Rajput warriors. Trails which take them through villages, pass
huge and ancient forts and temples. Nights can be spent in ancient palaces
and Garhs (small forts) now owned by the descendants of those glorious
Rajput rulers. These palaces not only provide modern amenities but
cultural programmes and entertainment is also available. Evenings are
spent at campsites which are splashed with colour in the form of local
folk dance and music. Tourists can have the pleasure of being escorted by
a English speaking ‘trial guide’.
Riders
are advised to wear boots and a hard hat. Breeches or jeans are
comfortable. Evenings are cold and pullovers and jackets are essential.
Sun glasses are required to avoid the glare of the sun. Beds, linen,
towels etc. are all provided by the organisers. All meals are inclusive in
the package. This includes an English breakfast and Indian lunch and
dinner. Liquor or aerated soft drinks are chargeable extra. In Jaipur,
