Itinerary idea in detail

Ask us if you would also like us to arrange your international flights at our preferred rates.

  • Take an onward domestic flight to Nagpur. As the flight arrives very early, a room for immediate check-in has been arranged for you at Nagpur so that you can recover from the long journey. After breakfast, you will travel by road to Tadoba National Park. This afternoon you will get your first opportunity to go on safari.

  • Enjoy your first morning and afternoon game drives in Tadoba National Park. With the skills of your naturalist, you have a good chance of seeing one of the park's sloth bears.

  • Today, take another morning and afternoon game drive. Hopefully, if you were lucky enough to spot a sloth bear, you might spot an Indian civet or even an elusive tiger.

  • After enjoying breakfast at Tadoba, you will transfer to Pench National Park and check in to your lodge. Relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings at your lodge. Enjoy dinner at the camp before heading out on a night safari.

  • Today you will enjoy morning and afternoon game drives in search of the elusive tiger. There are also leopards and jungle cats in the area but these are rare.

  • From Pench, you will travel northwest to arrive at a lesser-known Bori Wildlife Sanctuary. On arrival, you will be welcomed at the lodge. This afternoon you will go on a safari to explore one of central India's most exciting wildlife landscapes.

  • Today take another morning and afternoon safari. Your jeep allows you to cover plenty of ground in the jungle to give you a variety of wildlife spotting opportunities, further enhanced by your trained naturalist.

  • The journey from Bori to Satpura becomes even more enjoyable by using a boat transfer as you can spot several bird species and see crocodiles along the Denwa River. On arrival, check in to your lodge. Explore the Satpura National Park on an afternoon safari. It's a great place to see the sloth bear and a good number of sightings have been recorded in recent years. The scenery is beautiful, with the densely forested hills reflecting on the Tawa Reservoir.

  • Being virtually free of visitors, you have the privilege of exploring the Satpura National Park in a way unknown in any other tiger reserve. Enjoy morning and afternoon safaris at Satpura, which supports an array of mammals that include the tiger, leopard, sambar, chital, nilgai, four-horned antelope, chinkara, bison, wild boar and wild dog among others.

  • Early this morning, enjoy exploring the park on foot. Satpura is the only national park where you can take walking safaris. Later in the morning, you will be transferred from your hotel to the airport in Bhopal. Here you will board your domestic flight to Delhi. On arrival, you will check in to your hotel which is near the airport.

  • You will be transferred to the international airport for your onward journey.
