Rural Rajasthan, India
SUJÁN JAWAI
Explore this remote corner of Rajasthan
In the middle of wide open wilderness between the cities of Jodhpur and Udaipur, JAWAI is an intimate safari camp surrounded by arid scrubland and towering granite kopjes that numerous leopards and nomadic Rabari herdsmen call home.
There are just nine luxurious canvas tents, including a family suite, each airy and spacious with en suite bathrooms and a private veranda. A writing desk and seating area looks onto unobstructed views of the wilds around.
Explore this remote corner of Rajasthan on a variety of beguiling activities, from game drives out to spot leopards and other wildlife, to birdwatching walks (there are 170 species of birds here including flamingos), strolls with the local shepherds or more challenging treks. You can also visit nearby temples and forts, take mountain bikes out to discover the landscape or relax with yoga sessions in wonderfully secluded locations.
End your day with sundowners before congregating in the dining tent or around the fire to see meals cooked right in front of you in the live kitchen. Dinner in a more private setting can also be arranged. Part of a commitment to the conservation of local cultures and wildlife, meals are created using home-grown produce from the kitchen garden or fresh ingredients sourced from local farmers.
