Interessant Jeep Tour - Tour of the steppe with many animals (camels, gazelles, Antilles, birds). Stop in original villages with visit to the potter and weaver. Freshly cooked local lunch. Our nice guide Ashok explained everything very well to us, so you got a good insight into village life.

Delightful Bosnoi village tour. - Our guide, chottoretara Pryapat, made the tour with his patient and calm manner. We were fortunate to spot severally types of gazelle and wild peacocks close to us. The villages were very neat and gave us insight into the daily lives of the villagers. We were warmly welcomed for lunch at his house.

Traditional Village Life - The day with Chhotaram and his family was excellent. We saw various birds and the Blackbuck antelope before stopping off at the local clay pottery. Where we tried our hand at making a traditional clay pot. Then tried the interlock weaving at his family home with a local tasty home cooked vegetable curry. Chhotaram is informative in explaining local Rajasthan customs. Throughly enjoyable day, well worth it.

Definitely recommend - I went on the village safari with Ashok together with my two sisters, it was a really nice experience! Ashok is so kind and can tell you all about the local traditions and culture. We had an amazing time visiting different families and spotting wild animals in the nature around the village. Would really recommend!

The best village safari - Ashok took us on a village safari whish was very nice. We went to see a family that made pottery of clay all by hand. It was really cool to see them do it and they sold some nice craft for a small price. Then we went to a family that showed us how they prepare opium and some other typical food of the region. All the while Ashok told us a lot about the cast system here and other stories of the region. We then went on a safari, ate desert berries from the trees, saw lots of wildlife and went to a natural water well. It was a lovely tour that then ended at a fabric recycling factory where they had the most beautiful scarfs table rugs, bed sheets etc.

Amazing insight into traditional Rajasthani village life,,,, go on this tour - We were very impressed with this tour. My son and I kept in contact with the organiser on the viator message platform after our arrival in India. As our hotel was in the old city and too narrow for the jeep to enter we arranged to meet the tour host at the clocktower. He arrived early and we set off. We saw some animals on the way camels and deer. We saw how the opium ceremony was done, we visited a weaving homestead and a pottery workshop and had a fantastic vegetarian lunch with a local family. The guide was very knowledgable and told us a lot about the local community. It was an amazing experience to find out about Indian rural life within local familes. I would 100 per cent recommend this tour. It is also good value for money. \

Absolute incredibly informative, some of the nicest food served by some beautiful women, and overall fantastic experience, got to see a lot of the local wildlife, and the fact that they maintain the business in the family made it feel even more real and exciting.

Awesome Homestay and Safari - We did a 1/2 day village Safari with Ashok driving a Mahindra Thar. He is smart presentable and communicates well in Hindi and in reasonable English. We saw some Deer, Nilgai and Black bucks on the way. We stopped at a block printer’s and a pottery maker’s place. Wonderful experience. Bought bed sheets. Final stop over at the Prajapat home where he showed us dhurry weaving. We bought that too. Ended with a wonderful home cooked simple meal - bajra roti, sabzi, kadi and rice. The whole experience was extremely warm and hospitable. They have nine cottages at their homestay. Very comfortable and well appointed. I had to use their toilet and trust me it’s Krishna Gopal certified!!! My wife wants to come back and stay here for a day for sure. Strongly recommend this place. I am told they recently won an award for the best Rural Homestay.
