Jaipur With Tiger and Himalaya. |
| Today there are a host of conventional tiger
tours to choose from, but we offer something different for those of you
who expect more than the ordinary and want an insight in to the ongoing
tiger conservation programmes. Based at comfortable lodges in Jim
Corbet, Panna, Bandhavgarh and Kanha national parks you will
have the opportunity to spend days and even the odd night searching for
tigers and other wildlife. Today it is under siege from one fifth of
humanity and yet remarkably it survives in all its diverse forms,
especially the sal and teak forests of Madhya Pradesh, the ‘Tiger
State’. This region will provide the focus of the tour and is home to
most of the remaining tigers in India. During the trip you will cover a range of activities, which often include guided walks with park rangers, animal and pug mark census, meeting local villagers, time with the park elephant team, an evening in a tree hideout and meeting experts behind the research projects in the park. Of course you will also enjoy all that these stunning parks have to offer including over 200 species of bird and a number of other cat species such as leopard and Jungle cat. Wolves, Wild dogs, Sloth bear and numerous species of deer and antelope or ‘tiger food’ also inhabit the forests and plateaus and evidence from rock paintings thousands of years old suggest that human habitation has been here for many centuries One trip to India can never hope to reveal all its natural wealth but here is one that whets the appetite and goes beyond the average trip. In end your trip we give you a chance to see the high snow capped peak in the Indian Himalaya. You can see the highest peak Nanadevi and Trisuli. * Name of Program : Jaipur With Tiger and Himalaya. * Places of Visit :Delhi-Khajuraho-Panna-Bandavgarh-Kanha-Nainital-Kausani-Delhi Departure. * Duration : 14 Nights Hotel/ 2 Nights on Train * Best Time : Oct-March Day 1: Arrival Delhi : Upon arrival meet to representative, met and greet at the airport, drive to pre booked hotel for rest of the night.
