Tour to Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve - 23rd November – 28th November, 2010

Discover a magical world set amid the ancient Vindhyan Hills, guarded by an ancient fort, teeming with breathtaking wildlife. The moist deciduous forest of Bandhavgarh, having a core area of 105 sq km and a buffer area of approximately 400 sq km, has varied topography ranging from steep ridges, undulating landscapes, sal forest to open meadows. It houses a healthy population of tigers and is one of the best places to sight wild animals (apart from the tigers) in their natural habitat.

There are more than 22 species of mammals and 250 species of birds including Yellow-wattled Lapwing, Black Stork, Lesser Adjutant, Grey-headed Fishing Eagle, and four species of Vultures. Common Langurs and Rhesus Macaque represent the primate group. Carnivores include the Asiatic Jackal, Bengal Fox, Sloth Bear, Ratel, Grey Mongoose, Wild Dogs, Jungle Cat, Leopard and ofcourse, the Tiger. The artiodactyls frequently sighted are Wild Pigs, Spotted Deer, Sambar and Nilgai.

Land of the Wild brings to you the trip of a lifetime - a Safari ride that promises to go beyond ordinary tourism to entail discussions on the Park, the tigers' Family Trees and Conservation.

COST: Rs. 13,400/- (ex Katni)
