Tiger

India’s rich bio-diversity is unparalleled compared to the world. The green pockets of the nation stretch from the far northeastern states, stretching all through the heart of the country, right to the southwest biosphere carpeted over Kerala and Karnataka. This allows for a number of species of animals to make this their habitat. The warm tropical weather also yields into this. The Jungle Lore trails, especially the one where you can spot tigers, rhinos and elephants are ample in the country.

A robust list of jungles that allow these sightings makes India one of the most loved wildlife destinations in the world. From the one horned rhino sighting in Kaziranga to Ranthambore and Panna’s lure of seeing the tiger, the National Parks and Sanctuaries of India offer ample opportunities. The Asian elephant is yet another draw that takes travellers in the heart of thick forests. In fact, many a times, you can spot elephants on the side of forest flanked roads as well.

These itineraries take you into dense jungles, so you can immerse yourself in the ways of the forests. With birdsong and nature’s bounty for company, there is nothing more that the heart desires. Add to this, the excellent infrastructure in jungle lodges, safaris and naturalists, the trip is sure to be a memorable one.
