The main attraction of our horse safaris is the joy of riding good and well-trained horses from indigenous breeds over superb open country, rich in wildlife and cultural attractions. The riding routes can be according to your choice – quietly walking and trotting in the countryside, galloping across open desert plains, watching birds and wildlife from horseback in the Little Rann of Kutch, or visiting villages off the main road. You can ride alongside the wild ass or antelopes, stop to watch birds and even look for other wildlife like gazelle, wolf, fox and jackal.

Our guides will share with you their intimate knowledge of the terrain and wildlife habitat, using the horses to best effect to bring you closer to birds and mammals.

Non-riders can travel in open vehicles/jeeps to view wildlife/birds and experience local culture, joining the safari participants for meals or at their resting spots.

Rann Riders belongs to the Malik family that has a deep-rooted heritage of keeping horses. In medieval times, the Maliks of Dasada led the huge cavalry of the Sultans of Gujarat in the battlefield.
