Listen to some advice from the Internet as for a camel and answer the questions.
Winters are the best time for a camel safari. Welcome to the desert Rajasthan in India. Rajasthan’s summers are very hot and dry, so going on a camel safari during this time is virtually impossible. November to March, when days are cool (and nights cold!) is when most camel safaris are organized.
Desert nights can get very cold, so it’s essential to take along warm sweaters and jackets. >
