This Camel breeding farm was very spacious,very clean and very well maintained. There was nothing much to do except to look at the camels and perhaps feed them some grass.

Visiting the Research Centre is a nice option when you are in Bikaner. It is something special which is different to most other touristic places.
You can learn a lot about camels and dromedary, try different products made of camel milk (ice cream, coffee, …), do a short camel ride, buy nice souvenirs and gifts in the shops and relax in the small park as it is a quiet and peaceful surrounding.
If you are there, don‘t miss the National Research Centre on Equines which is next door. There are less facilities and less to do but we liked it as we are interested in horses and the donkeys were very cute and cuddly.

This is govt organization which is doing research on camels. There is a small coffee shop which sells camel milk products like flavoured milk, tea, coffee and icecream
There are small dunes at the end of the center so experience desert like environment. They offer camel rides as well
The only negative is that there is no one to explain about the camel research process

We expected much more of this center. The museum tou visit it in literally 5 minutes and there is very little information. When we arrived nobody was avaliable at the place of the Camel milk products. Afterwards we could try them, if we pay for them of course, and again we did not get much information about it. We could see camels but there was no guide, only some information panels. Quite disappointing

We went to offer another unique experience to our kids but there was not much staff to attend tourist like us.
There is an entrance ticket of Rs.50/- for kids above 5 years and adults. Once you enter you are pretty much on you own.
According to staffers we met there, there are around 300 camels in the institute which go for grazing every day in the morning and come back by 3 PM.
So if you want to see the complete lot then you should reach the institute around 3 PM , in case if you have to visit early then you can still see around 50-60 camels in different enclosures.
Camels rides are offered along with some products made of camel milk.
Can visit if you are with kids in Bikaner on a tourist mode.

This is one of a kind place. Check the timings before going. I guess it opens in the afternoon only. I am from Rajasthan and have seen camels before but never have seen so many camels together at one place. It was also reasonably managed inspite of being a government institution. I tasted camel milk, camel milk Lassi and Kulfi. The sweet lassi tasted as if someone had added salt to sweet Lassi. The staff explained that camel milk is quite salty and hence the taste. You must try the products for the experience. The camel ride was the topping on the cake. It's not easy to ride a camel and you will feel afraid of falling down but again you must do it for the experience. All in all a must visit place specially if you have young children.

This place is located on the outskirts of the city and it focuses on research, breeding and development of camels. There are several camels in the complex which is spread over a big area. There is a small museum where products made from camel skin, camel bones are in display. There is also a cafe where tea, coffee, ice-cream and kulfi made of camel milk is available. Visit this unique place if you are in Bikaner.

The entrance is nominal, no more than 250 rupees,you can only go after 4pm ,that is when the camels come in and get fed. I think there are trains from Delhi. Bikaner is on the line to Amritsar. We drove all the way back to Delhi in one day,brutal. Combine a visit to bikaner with a visit to churu orShekwati to break the trip up
