Just imagine, you are on an adventure trip to the arid desert of Rajasthan, and, after all you have enjoyed and cherished in the colourful state, now you are set for a safari on a beautifully clad elephant. Seeing you, the elephant just bows his head and then gives you way to comfortably rest on its cushioned back. And then with its undulating motion, it takes you on a ride through the broad aisle of The Amer Fort that sits atop a hill, to show you the majesty and splendour of this stupendous fort. As you ascend the slope you can look down and see a steep drop of a few hundred feet, and the magnificent views like the dips and curves of the surrounding hills and valleys of the Aravali range, the clear and still waters of the Maota Lake and the sheer size and magnitude of the fort up above. Terrific!! but hold on its only an imagination. But it would not take much to turn this imagination in to reality. The magnetic beauty of Rajasthan and its adventurous trails like elephant safari, jeep safari ,camel safari would attract you to come and visit this magical state.
The Elephant Safari takes one to the dense and rugged terrains, which are not easily reachable by jeeps or other vehicles. Besides getting a chance to sit on elephant's back, Elephant Safari gives one a regal feel, that is very exhilarating. The slow and steady movement of this massive animal provides the fascinating experience. The Elephant Safari is the best and safest way option to visit the wild regions and the wildlife sanctuaries. The adventure lovers can capture the scenic beauty of the forest in their cameras, as well as closely observe the wildlife with their own eyes. In addition one can well experience the fun and frolic of the animals in the wild regions. The Elephant Safari not only takes one to royal era, when elephants were used by Maharajas, but it provides the opportunity to view the far-flung areas of the forest from higher altitude. The howdah on the back of the elephant is the luxurious seat for riders, while the umbrella provide shelter from the sun light. In addition to the national parks and wildlife sanctuaries, the Elephant Safari is best to climb difficult and long destinations.
Elephant safari helps the visitor to travel through such difficult terrains where even jeeps cannot venture. And why not, riding an elephant takes you back to the royal era, when only the kings use to ride on these majestic beasts, since nothing can even compare with the majesty of the Pachyderm.
Equipped with a howdah, a large seat on which they would sit, complete with soft silk cushions, and with a ceremonial umbrella over the riders head, modern day elephant safaris may lack in comparison with the ones that use to be done by the kings, but are no less regal on that account.
The elephant moves slowly and steadily, that's why this type of safari is ideal in and around the wild regions or within the vicinity of the wildlife sanctuaries, where riding the elephant can give you an easy excess for viewing the wildlife. More of all a elephant safari tour in the tropical wildlife sanctuaries of India gets you up, close and personal with these majestic animals.
