A glamping experience, like nowhere else!  Dera Amer is a secluded wilderness camp situated above the city of Jaipur. There is a heart warming story behind this camp and the Singh family has committed to returning this stretch of land to its natural beauty.  Over the past 30 years, the 180 acres of scrubland is now a sanctuary for animals, and perfect for an escape from city life.

Community and environment are at the core of everything at Dera Amer, so your experience will be memorable. Stay in one of the six luxury tents, with the décor resembling the original Raj-era colonial furniture.

Sitting around the bonfire by night, watch a folk artist or dance performance whilst you enjoy a barbeque, before retiring to bed. The tents are heat-controlled, and you may even find a hot water bottle tucked under the linen sheets.

The stars of the show are Laxmi and Rangmala, two elephants. On waking up, the elephants like nothing more than to take a bath. Grab a hose and shower them down, it is so much fun. Join the walking safari in the company of your two new friends before returning to camp for a hearty lunch.

Close by to camp is the Meena tribe community, which provides an authentic interaction for guests. Witness a different pace of life from the city, visit the nearby school and sample some local delicacies.

Whilst the heat of the day sees the elephants take a rest, why not use the sustainable natural swimming pool to cool off and relax, in the heart of the Aravali forest.

Dera Amer also supports a local school, so by choosing to stay here, you can sleep well in the knowledge that you are investing in a child’s future.
