Tiger Safari Tour - Corbett, Kanha & Bandhavgarh
13 Nights/14 Days
Tour of Corbett, Kanha, and Bandhavgarh National park
Learn about the wild animals that call the Indian jungle home on a Tiger Safari. Corbett National Park in the north, Kanha National Park in the south, and Bandhavgarh National Park in the centre are all included.
Corbett has earned its moniker as the “land of the roar, trumpet, and song” with good reason: the park is home to a wide variety of animals, including the Royal Bengal Tiger, the Asian elephant, and about 600 different species of birds. What’s more, the Himalayan Foothills and the Ramganga River, with their crystal-clear waters, serve as a magnet for all of this diverse wildlife. In addition, the 100-year-old forest rest home is located in the Dhikala Zone, one of the most sacred parts of the forest, so you may enjoy your stay in a truly wild setting.
The sights of Central India are there for the taking after you’ve seen Corbett. Bandhavgarh boasts one of the greatest Tiger densities, while Kanha is home to some of the largest Tigers in India. Join us on our private tour of Corbett, Kanha, and Bandhavgarh to see this breathtaking scene for yourself.

Corbett National Park was the delighted recipient of the honour of hosting the launch of Project Tiger in India. The range of ecosystems in the Reserve contributes to the Reserve’s remarkable biodiversity. The Reserve contains both Himalayan and peninsular flora and wildlife due to its location in the central Himalayan foothills.
Established on August 8, 1936, as Hailey National Park in honour of Sir Malcolm Hailey, the then-governor of the United Provinces, the park’s name was later changed to Ramganga National Park in 1952, and then to Corbett National Park in honour and memory of the late Jim Corbett, the legendary hunter, naturalist-turned-author and photographer who assisted in the establishment and demarcation of the park’s boundaries.

The tiger population in Bandhavgarh National Park is very large and well-known. The legendary White Tigers of Rewa were found in this region. The park is home to a wide variety of wild animals, such as leopards, blue bulls, Indian bison, chausinghas (four-horned antelopes), spotted deer, sambar deer, wild pigs, sloth bears, foxes, jackals, and wild dogs, among others. The Park is home to over 250 different kinds of birds and at least 22 different types of mammals. Cobras, Kraits, Vipers, Rat snakes, Pythons, Monitor Lizards, and turtles are just few of the reptile species that call this park home. Bandhavgarh is home to two types of primates: rhesus macaques and Hanuman langurs. For over two millennia, the park has served as a thriving community hub. Ancient texts like the Narad-Panch Ratra and the Shiva Purana both make mention to it.
The caves hewn into the sandstone to the north of the fort are the oldest evidence of human occupation in the park. Many of them have Brahmi inscriptions from the 1st century BCE. The fort has changed hands between several dynasties over the centuries, including the Maghas in the 1st century CE and the Vakatakas in the 3rd century CE. The Chandela dynasty was one of many that followed to rule Bandhavgarh. Bandhavgarh was the private property of the Maharaja of Rewa after India gained independence from Britain, but he donated it to the state in 1968 so that it could be turned into a national park. The park’s establishment led to a significant increase in wildlife numbers as poaching and hunting were curbed. In particular, tigers thrived when the 1986 addition supplied additional forest.

The 940 square kilometres of Kanha’s ssal and bamboo forests, rolling grasslands, and flowing streams make up the reserve’s spectacular natural grandeur. The park, established in 1974 as part of Project Tiger, is home to the critically endangered hardground Barasingha (Cervus Duvaceli Branderi).
This is the land that inspired Rudyard Kipling to create his evocative depiction of the jungle in The Jungle Book. The Lodge provides a packed breakfast, which is put out on the safari vehicle’s bonnet and eaten at a predetermined location. In the early morning, you can enjoy the wilds of Kanha while having breakfast.
If you haven’t seen the rare tiger yet, keep looking while taking in the revitalising atmosphere. We recommend getting back from your safari no later than 11:30. Get cleaned up while I make lunch.
After lunch, head out to Kanha National Park for an afternoon jeep safari to spot tigers. Kanha National Park was established in 1955 under a special statute. Since then, numerous comprehensive conservation initiatives have been implemented to ensure the long-term safety of the park’s wildlife and plants. Nearly 38 animal species have been spotted in Kanha. The largest bovine in the world, the largest Indian deer, and the only four-horned antelope in the world all make their homes in this park. Nilgai antelope, sloth bears, dholes (Indian wild dogs), and even the rare Leopard are also regular visitors. Storks, egrets, black ibis, raptors, owls, and nightjars are just a few of the more than 300 bird species that call this park home.
