Krishna Jungle Resort

About Krishna Jungle Resort

Close Panel

Krishna Jungle Resort a small wildlife lodge close to the main gate of Kanha National Park at Kisili. It has 31 rooms that are simply furnished. The owners are very happy not to concentrate on abject luxury but on providing a good lodge where the emphasis is on the wildlife viewing. To that end they employ some excellent naturalists who really make a tiger safari a great experience.

I think this is a very good choice if you are looking for mid-range accommodation at Kanha National Park. The food is good, there is a swimming pool and there are evening presentations and film shows about the park and wider issues of tiger conservation. It is a good place to be based for an Indian tiger safari but of course Kanha has a great deal more to see than just tigers. The diversity and numbers of wildlife are extensive.

We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

International flights will add from about £450 to £700 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). India combines well with Nepal.
