Why Choose Us for Your India Nature Adventure?

  • An All-Encompassing Wildlife Itinerary...in Less-Traveled Parks This is the ultimate India experience for nature lovers. Boost your chances of seeing Bengal tigers—plus a host of other Indian wildlife—on visits to three different national parks that are home to some of India's most concentrated tiger populations. Most travelers go to Ranthambore National Park at peak season, which is heavily advertised and very crowded. We visit equally appealing Bandhavgarh National Park instead, plus Kanha and Kaziranga, which are more remote with far fewer tourists. Kanha also offers some of India's best tiger-viewing possibilities, while Kaziranga offers close encounters with rhinos and wild elephants. We also have a chance to see seven deer species and 600-plus bird species among an impressive diversity of wildlife. 
  • India’s Finest Naturalist Guides Our India Expedition Leaders average more than 15 years' experience—with top-level training including resources from WWF scientists. You won’t find more knowledgeable, personable or enthusiastic guides than those who are proud to work for us. Our philosophy is simple: a nature adventure is only as good as the guide who leads it, so we provide the very best! See Expedition Leader bios with traveler comments regarding the quality of our leaders.
  • A Small Group Means More Authentic Nature Experiences Most visitors to India travel in large groups aboard tour buses, focusing on cities and crowded cultural monuments. But that’s no way to experience India’s rich nature, which is our focus. We take just 11 guests, for a lower impact in nature reserves and more personal encounters with wildlife and local people.
  • Nine Days of Wildlife-Focused Activities in Varied Habitats Spend three days each in three premier wildlife reserves as we explore contrasting Asian habitats: the dry mixed deciduous forests of central India and the moist floodplains and grasslands of the Brahmaputra basin. Morning and afternoon safari outings provide a variety of perspectives. 
  • Distinctive Accommodations Enhance Your Safari When you travel with us to India, our accommodations ensure your every comfort. Environmentally sensitive ecolodges, while secluded, offer exceptional amenities. Each is selected for proximity to wildlife and the high quality of the guest experience. India’s luxury urban hotels are renowned worldwide, and the 5-star hospitality of the landmark Taj Mahal Hotel in Delhi and the Taj City Center New Town Kolkata offer welcome indulgences before and between our safari adventures. 
  • Our Presence Directly Helps to Protect Tigers After years of precipitously declining tiger numbers, India is charting steady increases. Its 2022 quadrennial tiger census counted 3,682 tigers, up from 2,967 in 2018, an annual rise of 6%. Conservation groups attribute a share of the increase to responsible ecotourism. The economic value of visitors to India's tiger reserves benefits local communities, offering people an incentive to protect the wildlife they share the land with. Given that India is home to 75% of the world's remaining wild tigers, our presence here for wildlife tourism here is integral to that continued success. 
  • Our Quality-Value Guarantee Ensures Your Outstanding India Wildlife Safari With Natural Habitat Adventures, you receive our exclusive quality value guarantee that promises we will meet the high expectations we set forth in our promotional materials. To our knowledge, this is the most ambitious guarantee made by any adventure travel company. Read our important promise.
  • Feel Good About Your Carbon-Neutral Journey We care deeply about our planet, as we know you do. When you travel with us, the carbon emissions from your trip are 100% offset—including your round-trip flights from home. Natural Habitat Adventures has been the world’s first carbon-neutral travel company since 2007.

India Tiger Safaris & Cultural EcoTours

The Ultimate Combination of Wildlife Safari & Culture Our award-winning India journeys eliminate the need to choose between India's spiritually rich cultural experiences or its classic wildlife safaris --Wild Planet's Leopards, Tigers and Palaces itineraries provides the very best of both.

Nature's Exotic Jewel Wild Planet offers the most comprehensive 13-day and 19-day multi-safaris available in India. Our wildlife expertise shines at India's top national parks, wildlife reserves and UNESCO World Heritage Sites where you can thrill to the sight of wild leopards, rhinoceros, elephants, tigers and more. Our 19-day program includes safaris in 5 very different National Parks and wildlife reserves, by jeep, elephant-back and camel-back. Only Wild Planet offers a combination of safaris in such a wide variety of eco-systems, for the best wildlife experience possible.

A Cultural and Spiritual Journey In addition to unsurpassed wildlife viewing, you'll immerse yourself in India's cultural and spiritual melange of sights, scents and colors--the brilliant reds and bold saffron of tribal costumes, the rose pink of ancient palaces, the soft indigo rooftops of fabled cities, the tawny browns of vast deserts, and the unforgettable black and orange stripes of the tiger. You'll feel transported back to a romantic era of turbaned warriors, valiant princes, and sultry harems as you explore the golden-hued desert strongholds of Jodhpur and Jaipur, the magnificent Taj Mahal, the remote villages of Rajasthan and off-the-beaten-track Assam, the Bishnois sect of Hindus who revere wildlife as part of their religion, and the contrasting modern bustle of Delhi. No other company offers anything like this!

Stay in Princely Style Wild Planet's India trips allow you to experience the dramatic rivers, fabled jungles and profuse big game of this exotic jewel. You'll stay in princely style at accommodations ranging from 4 & 5 star hotels to top game lodges and classic safari tented camps. You can even choose to stay at a former maharajas' palace which has now been converted into a magnificent hotel! You simply won't find an itinerary as remarkable as ours, or one that so thoroughly explores so many facets of India's wildlife, culture and spirituality. Our 19-day or 13 day Ultimate Wildlife Safari: Leopards, Tigers and Palaces journeys are available in your choice of scheduled group departures or you can go on your own on a date of your own choosing with minimum of 2 people. We also offer custom tours for families, groups and special interests including ashrams and yoga. If you don't see what you're looking for, please give us a call!

Delhi - Agra - Jaipur with Ranthambore Tiger Safari : 6 Days

Our 4 day tour with India Arrival Tours was very professional, pleasant, safe and informative. We did a private tour that included our own vehicle. Our driver, Ravi, was wonderful - we always felt safe with his driving and he spoke the perfect amount of English so we could communicate easily but could also talk freely in the car. Our tour guides in each city were top notch. Traveling in India can be a pretty big surprise for those who don't like getting out of their comfort zones. Fortunately, we enjoy seeing and learning new cultures and this tour helped us better understand a lot of the history in India. We're grateful to Rahis for making sure we were always taken care of and enjoyed our travels. Booking from abroad, it's hard to know which travel agency you can trust and are so glad our experience with India Arrival Tours was a great one!

Local offices & 24x7 support, reviews of bespoke india holidays, fergusthedog,australia.

Myself and family recently used Bespoke India Holidays for a two week vacation across a number of locations and cities in Northern India, and a 2 day visit to Nepal. I was particularly impressed with their level of knowledge and responsiveness to my questions during the preparation phase. All the location tour guides were excellent and all vehicles / drivers were of a high quality. If we had any problems they were quickly resolved by the locally appointed representative. I would happy recommend their services to anyone who wishes to see India at it’s best. As a personal recommendation, be specific as to what you expect from the quality of your hotel and transport arrangements. Don’t assume that your expectations will be met completely unless you detail your specifications exactly – we got caught out a little by this. However it was learning for me and Bespoke. In summary, an all round excellent company to deal with.

Wildlife Holidays in India

Tigers Tiger Shutterstock 775382149

Our holidays to India take the wildlife enthusiast to a diverse and abundant land. The Indian subcontinent encompasses an enormous range of habitats, extending from the spectacular peaks of the Himalayas in the north, through forests, lakes and deserts to the moist Nilgiri hills in the south of the country where the shoreline is lapped by the warm waters of the Indian Ocean. These diverse landscapes support some of the most spectacular profusions of life on Earth.

India is an exciting destination in other respects. The abundant archaeological reminders of the country’s extraordinary history, and the fascination of a completely unique and complex culture are reasons enough to visit India. However, for anyone interested in natural history the attractions of a wildlife holiday to India are simply too great to resist.

India Nature and Wildlife

nature tours india

India is home to a wide array of ecozones including deserts, mountains, tropical and temperate forests, rivers, plains and even an island archipelago. It is therefore not surprising that India hosts 7.6% of the world’s mammal population, 12.6% of all birds, 11.7% of all fish, 4.4% of all amphibians and 6% of all flowering plant species. Recent decades have seen the population of India grow immensely, which has posed a massive threat to India’s wildlife. As a result of this problem, as well as the implications of illegal hunting and poaching, the system of national parks and reserves first established in 1935 has expanded. There are now 87 National Parks, 13 Bio reserves and over 400 wildlife sanctuaries located throughout the country.

Animals like the Asian Elephant, the Bengal Tiger, the Asiatic Lion, the Leopard and the Indian Rhinoceros are very important to Indian culture and are associated with deities. The popularity of such animals aids in conservation efforts and they are increasingly important for wildlife and ecotourism. As a result of this, many national parks and reserves are dedicated to preserving these animals.

Project Tiger was established in India in 1972 to “maintain a visible tiger population in their native environment”. At the turn of the century, the tiger population was estimated to be around 40,000, however, a tiger census conducted in 2008 discovered only 1,411 remained. Project Tiger works to increase this number and had set up thirty-nine wildlife reserves around the country covering more than 37,761 square kilometres. This project is considered by many to be one of the most successful conservation efforts in modern history.

Project Elephant is a lesser-known, but equally important conservation project established in 1992. Its aim is to protect elephants, their habitats and migration corridors to ensure the long-term survival of elephants in India.

Kaziranga National Park  has developed in the Golaghat and Nagaon districts in the state of Assam over one hundred years ago. It has been listed as one of India’s twenty-nine UNESCO World Heritage Sites as it is home to two-thirds of the world’s Great One-horned Rhinoceros population. It is also an important bird sanctuary and tiger reserve and hosts a large breeding population of elephants and wild water buffalos.

The seventeen Biospheres in India protect not only the natural fauna of the country, but they also serve to protect the beautiful flora, many of which are only found in India. The lotus is the national flower of India , while the orchid and marigold plants are plentiful. Many flowers are used for medicinal purposes while bougainvillea, roses and jasmine are popular simply because of their extraordinary beauty. Many trees found in India hold special cultural and religious significance and hundreds of trees are protected as living, natural monuments. The official tree of India is the Banyan, while trees like the Indian rosewood, the Ashwagandha and the Brahmi are all popularly grown.

North india: bharatpur and the chambal river.

Indian Skimmer

A 6-day birding tour that explores the world-famous wetlands of Bharatpur and serene Chambal River, both havens for birds amid the semi-desert of the north Indian plains.

map - South Asia base png_edited.png

Our tour is a thorough exploration of one of India’s finest bird sanctuaries, the vast man-made wetlands of Bharatpur, along with the nearby Chambal River. We begin at Jarar in Uttar Pradesh where dryland species such as Sirkeer Malkoha, Grey Francolin, Brown Rock Chat and Rufous-tailed Lark dominate the avifauna but where parakeets, barbets, Brooks’s Leaf-Warbler and Brown Boobook find refuge in the greenery surrounding our lodge. From here, we explore the Chambal River, where sandbanks host good numbers of Indian Skimmer, and Ganges River Dolphin can be seen breaching the surface. We will also spend time along the riverbank and in flanking mud ravines, looking for Jungle Bush-Quail, Red-headed and Crested Buntings, and Yellow-eyed Babbler. Next, we travel via the Taj Mahal to Bharatpur in Rajasthan to begin birding amidst the wetlands and surrounding acacia scrub. Here we can expect to encounter a good diversity and abundance of waterfowl, various waders, a selection of storks including Black-necked and Painted, Red-naped Ibis, Sarus Crane, Orange-headed Thrush, Siberian Rubythroat, Dusky Eagle-Owl and Indian Scops Owl, often with more than a hundred species in a day.​

Tour highlights:, a diversity of species in contrasting habitats with dryland species of the wider region, such as isabelline and desert wheatears, chestnut-bellied sandgrouse and indian courser, complemented by wetland birds in the roadside marshes of irrigated farmland, along the chambal river and in the vast man-made wetlands of bharatpur., an impressive selection of waterbirds over three days at bharatpur, one of india’s finest bird sanctuaries, including sarus crane, up to six species of stork, three species of ibis, white-tailed lapwing, greater painted-snipe, black bittern, and numerous waterfowl including indian spot-billed and knob-billed ducks and bar-headed goose., excellent chances to see indian skimmer, alongside black-bellied tern, river lapwing, ruddy shelduck, sand lark, brown crake, ganges river dolphin and the curious gharial as we enjoy at least one leisurely boat ride along the serene chambal river., numerous passerines in woodlands and acacia scrub including siberian rubythroat, orange-headed and tickell’s thrushes, eastern orphean warbler and several flycatchers, plus dusky eagle owl, indian scops owl and large-tailed nightjar, and with numerous eagles including eastern imperial and indian spotted eagles drawn to the spectacle., a glimpse of india's rich past at the splendid taj mahal, and an introduction to north india's culture and cuisine., day 1: delhi to jarar.

Arrivals into Delhi airport this morning.  We will spend the rest of the morning driving southeast into Uttar Pradesh to Jarar, a small village close to the Chambal River, where we will spend the night. We should arrive in time to explore surrounding dry fields and arid scrubland, where we can expect to encounter a good selection of dryland species as an introduction to the avifauna of the region. Key among these will be Grey Francolin, Sirkeer Malkoha, Eurasian Hoopoe, Indian Roller, Spotted and Laughing Doves, Rufous-tailed Lark, Brown Rock Chat, Ashy-crowned Sparrow Lark and Bank Myna, with a variety of woodland birds, such as Indian Golden Oriole, Indian Paradise Flycatcher, Brown-headed and Coppersmith Barbets, White-eared Bulbul, Purple Sunbird, Ring-necked and Plum-headed Parakeet, and Indian Grey Hornbill in the comparatively lush grounds of our lodge. We’ll search in particular for the regional speciality Brooks’s Leaf Warbler, and Brown Boobook at dusk, when we will also look for Common Palm Civet and the resident colony of Indian Flying Fox.

Day 2: The Chambal River to Bharatpur via Agra and the Taj Mahal

This morning we will explore a section of the serene Chambal River, one of north India’s least polluted waterways.  By boat we will go in search of flocks of the elegant Indian Skimmer on sandbanks midstream, accompanied by Black-bellied and River Terns, River Lapwing, Indian and Great Thick-knees, Ruddy Shelduck, Brown Crake and Egyptian Vulture. We’ll no doubt see several Mugger Crocodiles and curious Gharials, with the chance of Ganges River Dolphin, and Indian Wolf in adjacent farmland. We will also explore the sandy riverbank and flanking mud ravines looking for Sand Lark, Isabelline and Desert Wheatears, Yellow-eyed Babbler and Red-headed and Crested Buntings, Rufous-fronted Prinia, Yellow-legged and Barred Buttonquails and Jungle Bush Quail.  By late morning we will leave to drive to Bharatpur for a four-night stay, travelling via Agra where we will stop for a brief visit to India’s most iconic monument, the Taj Mahal.

Day 3-5: Bharatpur

We have three full days to thoroughly explore the extensive man-made shallow wetlands of Bharatpur, undoubtedly among India’s finest bird reserves, on foot and by the park’s unique bicycle-rickshaws. This is a haven for resident and migratory waterfowl, and many of the birds we will find are conspicuous, numerous and easily seen. With more than 100 species in a day not uncommon here, birding is both highly enjoyable and immensely rewarding. Among Sarus Crane, Bar-headed and Greylag Geese, Black-necked, Painted and Woolly-necked Storks, Eurasian Spoonbill, Black-headed and Red-naped Ibis, White-throated and Pied Kingfishers, various egrets, waders, and huge congregations of waterfowl we’ll look for scarcer Knob-billed and Ferruginous Ducks, Red-crested Pochard, Black Bittern and White-tailed Lapwing. In patches of trailside woodland and acacia we’ll look for Common and White-tailed Ioras, Eastern Orphean Warbler, White-browed Fantail, Taiga and Ultramarine Flycatchers, Eurasian Wryneck, Yellow-crowned Woodpecker and skulkers such as Orange-headed and Tickell’s Thrushes, and Siberian Rubythroat. We can also expect to come across Indian Scops Owl, Dusky Eagle Owl and Large-tailed Nightjar at day roosts, and a superb assortment of raptors including Eastern Imperial, Indian Spotted and Steppe Eagles. We will also explore the surrounding farmland and roadside marshes, looking for Indian Courser, Chestnut-bellied Sandgrouse, Black-breasted, Streaked and Baya Weavers, White-capped and Grey-necked Buntings, the delightful Red Avadavat, Indian Silverbill, Baillon’s Crake and Greater Painted Snipe.

The 15 Best Places to Visit in India for Nature Lovers

Valley of flowers Uttarakhand trek

Disclaimer: This post may contain affiliate links. All hosted affiliate links follow our editorial policies .

Though India’s natural beauty is often overshadowed by her architecture , history and culture , the real gem of the subcontinent is arguably her remarkable array of flora and fauna. It’s a little known fact, but India is home to a whopping 7% of the world’s biodiversity!

Few places in the world offer the broad range of wildlife viewing opportunities that India does, from legendary megafauna such as the Bengal Tiger and Asian Elephant to the equally delightful 1300+ bird species that call the country home.

India is also home to an ever-changing landscape that veers from  deserts  and wild grasslands to the Himalayan foothills and tropical jungles. Jungles and forests cover over 20% of the country.

If you’re a nature lover, India is arguably one of the top destinations in the world. But choosing the right spot to start can be a little overwhelming. The country is, after all, a sub-continent, and planning a trip to India can take a little time. 

You can travel independently to India’s national parks and tiger reserves, although some are harder to reach by public transport than others.

But there are also many different  group tours of India that include a visit to one or more of these parks. There also companies that can help you get an Indian e-Visa online, before you arrive in the country. 

Here’s an overview of some of the best places to visit in India for nature and wildlife.

When is the Best Time to Visit India?

Weather-wise, the best time to visit India is in the winter, between the end of October and the end of February.

This is the most pleasant time of year to take a wildlife safari. However your chances of spotting animals are statistically better during March, April, and May, when they tend to gather around watering holes.

If you can handle the extreme heat during these month, you’ll also benefit from fewer visitors and better deals on accommodation as well. But weather in India from March through May can get extremely hot.

It sometimes reaches 50º Celsius/122º Fahrenheit in Rajasthan before the monsoon rains begin, starting some time in June and lasting until October. But the seasons and weather patterns are becoming more unpredictable recently due to climate change .

One exception to this is the mountainous region of Ladakh , which is covered with snow for much of the year and is open for trekking between June and September (there are some lower trekking routes that open in May).

Himachal Pradesh, in the Himalayan foothills, is best visited between March and May as a cool retreat from the hot, dusty plains.

November through February is also high tourism season here. So if you’re traveling to India during these months, try to make your travel arrangements and bookings well in advance.

National Parks in India

Originally established in 1936 as Hailey National Park, Jim Corbett National Park forms part of the larger Corbett Tiger Reserve, although the names are often used interchangeably.

Set in the region of Naintal, Uttarakhand, Corbett is India’s oldest national park, as well as its most prestigious. It is naturally one of the most sought-after destinations in India for animal enthusiasts, with over 650 species of wildlife recorded there. 

Corbett can be explored by Jeep safari, and is also one of the few parks in India that allows visitors to overnight within the park boundaries (in the government-run Dhikala Forest Eco Lodge ).

Corbett National Park was the launching ground for the original Project Tiger, a wildlife conservation program  launched in 1973.

Some of Corbett’s zones are open all year round, and spring is a popular time to visit, with temperatures lower than you’ll encounter across India’s plains.

Wildife safari Kaziranga national park

Established in 1908, Kaziranga is one of the top national parks in Eastern India, famed for its Indian Rhinoceros population.

This UNESCO World Heritage Site is thought to be home to two-thirds of the world’s Greater One-horned Rhino population. It was also declared a Tiger reserve in 2006, and is currently home to one of the highest densities of Bengal Tigers within a protected area. 

Kaziranga’s topography is unique and spans the floodplains of the Brahmaputra River , grasslands, forest, and wetlands .

During some monsoons, Kaziranga has seen extensive flooding, including a major one in 2019. It caused devastation for much of the park’s wildlife, which tried to flee in order to reach higher grounds. 

Kaziranga has traditionally been explored on Elephant back (which is not considered responsible travel ) due to its tall grasses and lack of roads. But these days Jeep safaris are also possible.

The best time to visit Kaziranga is between November and May. Note that the park closes between July and October each year in case of flood warnings.

Best Places to visit in India for Nature Lovers - Nagarhole National Park

With fewer visitors venturing to southwest India, Nagarhole (which is also written as Nagahole) is something of a hidden ecotourism gem.

The name originally comes  nagarahole, meaning “cobra river” in Kannada, the local language. But don’t worry: The name is in reference to the number of curving streams, rivers , and waterfalls that fill the park than the fearsome reptiles themselves. 

Nagarhole is a beautiful place that’s widely recognized as one of the best national parks in India. It adjoins the Bandipur Tiger Reserve and forms part of the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve.

Nagarhole is a sanctuary for Asian Elephants, Leopards, Tigers, Black Panthers, Dholes , S loth Bears, Crocodiles, and many other creatures, including wide insect biodiversity. 

Nagarhole is most easily accessed from northern Kerala or from Mysore in Karnataka. The best time to visit is between October and May, because the park often closes during the monsoon season.

Deer in the Sundarbans National Park

Spanning eastern India and into Bangladesh, the Sundarbans is the world’s largest mangrove forest . It’s also one of the few places in the world where you have a chance of seeing swimming Tigers!

Most of the impressive population growth seen in the 2019 Tiger census (which happily saw a 33% increase in Bengal Tigers in India ) was in the Indian Sundarbans. 

The Sundarbans were declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987 and are not only important as a Tiger reserve, but they’re integral to the protection of the entire delta region.

Despite the healthy population here, Tiger sightings are rare, as most of them choose to retreat to the inaccessible interiors of the mangrove systems.

Although there have been rare occasions where Tigers have attacked humans in local villages as human populations increasingly encroach on their territory, the animals are generally fairly timid. 

Going on a safari in the Sundarbans is unique in that you travel by boat. Given the high humidity, the best time to take a trip to the region is during the winter months (November through February), when early morning mists add to the atmospheric experience.

Safaris do not run at all during summer, which is monsoon season.

Every time monsoon season arrives (usually around June), the Valley of the Flowers near Chamoli in Uttarakhand comes to life.

Its vibrant, bursting displays of color are a wonderful reward for those travelers willing to make the effort required in getting there. 

The starting point for the trek to reach the Valley of Flowers is from Joshimath, which is accessible by road from Haridwar, Rishikesh or Dehradun. From Joshimath, Pulna village can be reached by road in about one hour.

From the village, it’s a 16-kilometer trek to the “base camp” of Ghangaria. From there, it’s an additional 3 kilometers to the beginning of the main valley, where the flowers are. 

There are both government-run and private tours to the Valley of the Flowers. Or, if you are traveling in India independently, we recommend hiring a local guide for the trek.

Places to travel in india to see Wildlife - Mudumalai National Park

Mudumalai National Park is located in the northwestern corner of Tamil Nadu, which borders the states of Kerala and Karnataka.

This protected area is home to Asian Elephants, Tigers, Guar, and Leopards , as well as over 266 species of birds (which represents 8% of the different bird species in India). 

Mudumalai is part of the same biosphere area as Nagarhole, the Nilgiri Biosphere reserve. The best time to visit Mudumalai is between March and June or September and October.

Where to visit in India to see Animals -Satpura National Park

Although this national park is also referred to as Satpura Tiger Reserve, the chances of seeing a Tiger here are relatively low, especially compared to some of the other Madhya Pradesh reserves.

The park is better known for other wildlife species, such as Sambar Deer, Antelope, Chinkara, Indian Leopard, and the weird-looking  Indian Giant Squirrel ! Satpura is also home to 1300 species of plants.

So if you’re not 100% focused on seeing a Tiger, Satpura National Park can be a great option to visit in north India, with fewer visitors than some of the neighboring parks. 

Satpura Tiger Reserve is important from an archaeological perspective, too. There are more than 50 Rock Shelters here that have ancient paintings depicting various animals, including Elephants, Tigers, Deer, and Porcupines. These paintings are estimated to be 1,500 to 10,000 years old.

The best time to visit Satpura is between November and May.

Asiatic Lions in India

Located away from the main North India tourist trail, Gir is enough reason to make a diversion to Gujarat. This national park is the only home in India of the Asiatic Lion.

Sasan Gir (as it is also known) is located in southwestern Gujarat, in the Junagadh region, and is home to upwards of 500 Lions. 

Hunting  brought the Asiatic Lion to the brink of extinction in the mid 20th century, before conservationists stepped in in the ’60s to protect the dwindling population. In recent censuses, the number of Lions in the park has been climbing steadily. 

The rangers in Gir National Park are just as famous as its Lions: This is the first park in India to have female forest rangers. 

The park is open from November to June each year and closes during monsoon season. Check the Gujarat Tourism website in advance for exact dates.

Top places to visit in india to see wildlife - Sanjay Gandhi National Park

Encircled by Mumbai, Sanjay Gandhi is the only national park in India that’s located within a city.

But that doesn’t mean it’s small: Sanjay Gandhi National Park covers 87 square kilometres, jostling for space alongside some of India’s most expensive real estate. 

Largely bordering the northern areas of the mega-city, this Mumbai park is home to many species of endangered flora and fauna.

Animals that call the national park home include Leopard, Spotted Deer, and Hanuman Langur Monkeys. Leopards are known to wander into neighboring areas of metropolitan Mumbai and Thane city under the cover of darkness. 

This is one of the most-visited national parks in India: It’s popular with rock climbers, hikers , and those who want to visit the well-known Kanheri caves .

Winter temperatures are quite cool here, providing relief from the often-humid air of Mumbai. The park is open all year-round.

Best places in India for nature lovers

Periyar National Park (Kerala)

Set in the Western Ghats (hills) of Kerala, Periyar is one of the most popular national parks in South India to visit.

Although its wildlife offerings are less spectacular than most of the other parks featured here, many visitors come for the dramatic scenery.

Don’t miss the boat trip across Periyar Lake, which offers the chance to watch wildlife from the water. During our time in the park we were lucky enough to see Elephants along the banks of the lake . 

Fair warning: The boat trip is far from serene, and can be quite a crowded affair. Even India guidebooks warn that the experience can be awfully Disneyland-esque.

For those visitors seeking some peace and tranquility, there are alternative options for rafting on the Periyar Lake. It’s also one of the last Indian parks you can actually walk into, which makes for a great opportunity to observe the flora and fauna with a naturalist. 

The best time to visit Periyar is November through May.

Tiger Reserves in India

By far your best chances of seeing a Tiger in India are at the Tiger reserves, some of which now have booming, high-density populations!

The best time of year to see a Tiger is in the height of summer, from March through May, when they tend to gather around watering holes in the parks.

However, be aware that this is the hottest time of year in India. Many people choose to visit in November through February, which offers more comfortable weather, but slightly lower chances of Tiger sightings. 

We personally recommend taking Jeep safaris over Cantor safaris (which have up to 16 seats and are more bus-like) for a more intimate experience, with fewer elbows jostling for photos. And remember, it’s more about savoring the wonder of being in nature than just seeing a Tiger.

Holiday destinations in India to see Tigers -Bandipur Tiger Reserve

Adjoining neighboring Nagarhole, the Bandipur Tiger Reserve boasts the second highest density of Tigers in India. So it’s an excellent place to look for Tigers!

Bandipur was established in 1974 under Project Tiger , and was once the private hunting reserve of the Maharaja of Mysore. 

In addition to its big cats, Bandipur supports a sizable population of endangered and vulnerable species such as Indian Elephants, Gaurs, Sloth Bears, Muggers, Indian Rock Pythons, Four-horned Antelopes, Jackals, and Dholes (a.k.a. Indian wild dogs).

The best way to see Tigers in the park is on a Jeep safari .

Places to travel in India to see Tigers - Bandhavgarh national park India

Bandhavgarh National Park (Madhya Pradesh)

You don’t have a better chance of seeing a Tiger anywhere in India than you do at Bandhavgarh National Park in Madhya Pradesh.

Spanning some 105 square kilometers, Bandhavgarh has the happy problem of trying to find more space for its Tigers. These massive cats require large territories to hunt, and the population has grown here considerably in recent years. 

Get up early for a morning Jeep safari for your best chances of seeing a Tiger here. Sightings aren’t guaranteed, but with a bit of luck (and keeping quiet) you’ll get a great Tiger sighting, like we did! 

Bandhavgarh is home to many eco-friendly lodges, in particular the Tree House Hideaway .

Famous tourist places in India - Kanha Tiger Reserve

Kanha National Park (Madhya Pradesh)

The largest national park in Madhya Pradesh, Kanha is divided into two sanctuary areas– Hallon and Banjar– which respectively encompass 250 and 300 square kilometers.

But more worthy of note is Kanha’s true claim to fame. The park is thought to be the original “jungle” from Rudyard Kipling’s Jungle Book .  If you’re intent on living out your own Mowgli fantasy, Kanha would seem like the natural place to start. 

So perhaps it’s no surprise that Kanha National Park gets busy and books up quickly. If you’re planning on visiting Kanha, we recommend booking your accommodation and safaris several months in advance. Many of the area’s lodges can help with booking your safaris directly. 

The park is open from mid-October to June each year, and then closes for monsoon season. November through February are the busiest times to visit.

Places to go in India to see Tigers -Pench Tiger Reserve

Pench National Park (Madhya Pradesh / Maharashtra)

Located on the border of southern Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra, Pench National Park is a lesser-known alternative to the big-hitters of Bandhavgarh and Kanha.

Made up mostly of teak trees, Pench has a very different feel from the more popular parks. There are fewer tourists and Tigers, providing nature lovers with that feeling of serene solitude so many crave. 

Pench’s sprawling 1900 square kilometers is 60% in Madhya Pradesh and the remainder in Maharashtra. Located on the Jbalpur to Nagpur highway, the Turia Gate is relatively easy to reach, and the park is most frequently accessed from here. 

Pench National Park is the perfect place to forget the goal of “seeing a Tiger” and appreciate India’s national parks for what they are: Invaluable havens of peace, tranquility, and biodiversity.

As with the other parks in Madhya Pradesh, Pench is closed from June through mid-October.

Tourist places in India - Ranthambore safari

Ranthambore National Park (Rajasthan)

The most visited Tiger reserve in India is not without its vocal critics.

Recent complaints of overtourism and land loss to the overdevelopment of resorts here have made headlines. But that negative press doesn’t seem to have had much impact on visitor numbers. People still seem as keen as ever to catch sight of a Tiger here. 

Located south of Jaipur and within easy reach of Agra and Delhi, Ranthambore is one of the top tourist attractions in Rajasthan . 

It’s Ranthambore’s location that makes it so popular: It’s an easy stop for anyone on a Golden Triangle tour . It’s also unique for the ancient ruins dotted around the park, making a captivating backdrop for Tiger viewings (which are relatively frequent). 

If you do have time to go elsewhere to see Tigers in India, you may enjoy it more. We also recommend avoiding the large canters and busses , which can be noisy, in favor of a Jeep safari if you can.

Most of Ranthambore closes between July and October 1st due to the monsoon, however the buffer zone stays open all year round.

Tourist places in India that need more tourists - Sariska Tiger Reserve

Sariska National Park (Rajasthan)

Located to the northwest of Jaipur and far larger than the more famous Ranthambore, Sariska National Park is best known for the scandal that unfolded there.

In the ’90s and early 2000s, all of the park’s Tigers somehow disappeared! It was suspected that they were taken by poachers. By 2004, Sariska was completely tigerless.

The park administration tried to cover it up for a long time. But after years went by without a single Tiger being seen, eventually detectives were brought in to solve the mystery. 

In subsequent years, the park’s corruption was cleaned up, and Tigers were eventually reintroduced to Sariska from Ranthambore from 2008.

In 2019, there are still only 15 Tigers left in the park, with only one lone male. This is causing great concern to conservationists as a further barrier to protecting the delicate population there.

According to local sources, the problem is twofold. The first is a lack of investment into tourism in Sariska. The second issue is the presence of villagers within the wildlife reserve itself. 

Staying in resorts like the Sariska Retreat and the  Sterling Sariska  does help, and having tourists take more safaris and guided trips could provide an economic incentive for the Tigers’ protection. 

So we’re recommending visiting Sariska National Park as a chance to make a genuine difference with your money. The more international visitors travel to Sariska, the more interest the government and tourism business will have in protecting the park in the future.  – Ellie Cleary

Best Tiger Safari Reserves in India

Top destinations to catch the big cat in action...

There are over 600 national parks in India which are home to close to 200 endangered mammal species. The Royal Bengal Tiger is one of the flagship species as not only is it the apex predator of the very forests that thrive here, but it is also the biggest cat among its brothers. National Parks in India varies with varying tropics and landscapes. We have the dry deciduous forest of Ranthambore National Park in the western part of India while the evergreen Sal forest of Kanha National Park thrives in Central India. Corbett National Park is unique as it rests in the foothills of the Great Himalayan Range, making it an awe-stunning frame to capture. India has some of the most biodiverse lands making it a hotspot for wildlife and tiger safaris and nature enthusiasts.

Tiger Safari India FAQs

Frequently asked questions.

Among the many national parks in India’s golden Triangle Zone, Kanha National Park and Ranthambore National Park offer incredibly fulfilling tiger tours. You get to visit many breathtaking locations and can embark on numerous types of tiger safaris. Read our blog on the best tiger reserves in India for tiger safaris .

The Jim Corbett National Park currently houses over 350 tigers of varying species. It is one of the largest and most densely populated tiger reserves in India . The park is frequented by tourists and is a major attraction among wildlife enthusiasts.

To know more about tiger tours in Jim Corbett National Park, contact Tiger Safari India.

Tiger safaris in India actually happen throughout the year, but it is recommended to plan a safari tour between the cooler months of October and March. Each and every National Park in India has dedicated tiger safari zones that remain open to the public in longer durations.

It is important to plan your tiger safaris in India a good five months in advance, as it will give top tiger tour operators, like Tiger Safari India , ample time to prepare the best possible trip for you.

The Kanha National Park, Bandhavgarh National Park, Ranthambore National Park and Jim Corbett National Park are the four most visited and most popular tiger reserves. Each park also brings with it a unique tiger safari experience. Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve has the maximum tiger population and hence the chances of sighting increases. 

Avoid bright colors and instead, pick a wardrobe of nature-inspired shades like greens and browns. Camouflage printed outfits are also a good option. Heavy jackets for winters as the temperature is lower in the jungle.

The Corbett Tiger Reserve is considered the best place to visit for a tiger safari experience as it accounts for the most number of tigers by population (over 252 tigers and counting) as of 2022.

The state of Madhya Pradesh is home to the most number of tigers. On the other hand, Corbett National Park & Tiger Reserve ranks the top with tiger count of 252 as of 2022. Read our blog on the Top 5 Tiger Reserves with the Highest Tiger Population in India .

Mr. Jan Kozlowski & Ms. Elizabeth Jeffery Country : UK March,2023 A heartfelt thank you Mr Rathore of Indian Heritage and Nature Tours for their great work and experience in providing a tailor- made tour and a first class service for our time in the Himalayan foothills. My partner and I recently returned from visiting India and where we had a fabulous tour north from New Delhi into the foothills organised by Indian Heritage and Nature Tours. Our trip took us from our hotel in New Delhi to Kalka, then onto Shimla via the Himalayan Queen Toy Train, to Manali, Dharamshala/McLeod Ganj, Dalhousie then to Amritsar from where we caught a flight to Kolkata. In total 12 days/11 nights. We had a fabulous time and for our comfort and seeing the various sites easily, were provided with our own driver, Mr Hari Krishan, who was truly excellent. The planning and arrangements put into our tour were exemplary, and our travel arrangements went extremely smoothly - trains/tickets and transfers, car and driver provision, as well as onward flights/tickets from Amritsar. The hotels at all the various locations exceeded our expectations, and our excursions en route and our sight-seeing days were very well organised. India and the Himalayan foothills were amazing. Thank you, India & Team Indian Heritage Nature Tours. Look forward to seeing you again. Read more Mr. Jaysurya Gollamudi & Family Country : USA August,2022 Are you traveling? Especially to India? If you want the best experience of your travel look no further, think no further. Just pick up the phone and call +919414042905 Mr. Satya of “Indian Heritage and Nature Tours” We did. They are very competitive. Best in the Indian tour operators. Very pleasant, friendly and very affordable and competitive rates. We wanted to go to India with our daughter and two grandchildren in the month of August 2022. We googled and inquired with several travel agents and somehow, we picked Indian Heritage & Nature Tours. Read more Mr. Vendesan Somo & Family Country : Singapore July,2022 Mr. Satya Tour Coordinator of Indian Heritage & Nature Tours not only received us at Delhi Airport, he accompanied us together with the driver to Shimla, Manali and Chandigarh. He ensured our Trip was carefully and safety managed because of the difficult terrains. Furthermore, he managed to book us to reasonably good hotels and brought us to places of interests etc. This was our third Trip organized him and we were very pleased with his services and the attention given the details We are certainly engaging our next trip with Indian Heritage & Nature Tours.

Nature Expeditions India

WELCOME TO INDIA & BEYOND

The Great Mughals called it “Hindostan” and to the British it was the “Jewel” in the imperial “Crown” and from the Latin “Indus” is derived the name that the world knows it by. India – an ancient land where age-old traditions rub shoulders with modernity; a land with an astounding array of natural wonders; an incredible history dating back thousands of years; and a cultural backdrop that never fails to dazzle.

In India a guest is considered blessed, and we at Nature Expeditions India treat your needs with holy reverence. We understand your time is at a premium and want to help you capitalise on your visit with absolutely no compromise on the quality of your experience.

Nature Expeditions was established  about two decades back by passionate explorers , to share travel knowledge and offer top quality services using their many years of experience in organising and leading tours, challenges, treks and wildlife holidays across India, and beyond.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.
