The Pushkar Camel Market is not a mere market. It is now considered one of the greatest travel experiences possible. Here are the details of our group tour including our luxury tented camp. This is a market you will wander into solo!
Pushkar is a huge gathering of tribal peoples from all over Rajasthan. The market is one of the last great traditional gatherings globally and because it is in India, it is particularly spectacular and colorful.
Here is what you will see: Camel Races and performances: ever see a dancing camel? Camels are dressed and be-jeweled and their bells ring from ankles as well as from their colorful headdresses.
There are stalls selling local jewelry, textiles, beads, etc. Pushkar is a trading and selling market as well. It is also where tribes arrange marriages and dowries. We will go with one family as they do this for their daughter.
There temple dedications, and at night, you will see candlelit ceremonies and hear the prayers. The religious part of the festival is equally fascinating with pilgrims praying and bathing in the local lake.
There is traditional music and dancing done by tribal people in exotic costumes. And competitions for wedding clothing, games, beauty contests and more. Don’t miss this event with our group.
Pushkar is a once in a lifetime experience. You will rest at night in luxury tented camps. Tours for women do not usually go to Pushkar! Avoid the single supplement and we will arrange a share for you. UPDATE SHARES GUARANTEED ON THIS TRIP
