Indian Wildlife Tour
Back
If you have a passion to see the very best wildlife in India then this trip is for you. We cover two distinctly different areas in this trip to give you a diverse view of India wildlife. In the northern state of Assam we visit Kazaringa National Park, known amongst other things for its population of one-horned rhinos. Then we move on to what is arguable India’s best tiger park –Kanha National Park. We should see an extraordinary biodiversity on this trip, including tigers and rhinos and a vast array of birdlife, deer, monkeys and reptiles to complete the range of India wildlife.

Is it for you?
This is an easy trip that does not require any particular special fitness. You stay in good hotels and jungle lodges and should find there is plenty of time for wildlife viewing. Due to the distances involved there is a lot of time spent travelling to the parks. Overnight trains in India add an extra dimension to your trip.
Best times to go
The best time for India wildlife is in the hotter months between March and June when animals are using regular watering spots. It can be very hot and if this is a problem for you then you should stick to the cooler months prior to this, when wildlife viewing is still extremely good. At Kanha It is cool from mid-October to the end of February and hot from the middle of April to middle of June. Kanha closes on 30th June for the monsoon season.
