The Center has been listed in the tourist guide as one of Bikaner's key tourist destinations. Visitors to the Center can observe many varieties of camels and their behaviour. They can learn more about the camel's evolution and research in the desert ecology by visiting a camel museum. Visitors can use the camel riding, safari, and video/photography facilities. Because it sells distinctive, high-value camel milk goods including ice cream and hot and cold beverages, the camel milk parlour is a unique attraction.
