Itinerary
Dive into the wild heart of India with the "India Tiger Safari," a 15-day wildlife tour designed for seasoned explorers. Beginning and ending in New Delhi, this journey leads you through five national parks—Bandhavgarh, Kanha, Panna, Sariska, and Chambal—in search of the elusive Royal Bengal Tiger and a host of other remarkable wildlife. Picture yourself on 4WD safaris, boat trips, and forest drives, encountering everything from dolphins to sambar deer amidst breathtaking scenery. The trip’s USP? Access to Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve, famed for the highest density of tigers worldwide, plus the chance to trace the landscapes that inspired Kipling’s 'Jungle Book.' This is a tour package that promises both suspense and awe at every turn.
day 1Join trip in Delhi. Evening prayer ceremony at Hanuman Temple
Arrive in New Delhi, the capital of India and the colourful, bustling centre of the nation. The city has been at the heart of numerous empires and dynasties over time from the Mughals to the British Raj, with each one having left its own unique mark on the city, resulting in the rich patchwork that is modern-day Delhi.
For those arriving on time today, our tour leader plans to meet you in the hotel reception at 5pm for a welcome meeting. We'll then make our way out into the city on foot, arriving at Hanuman's Temple in time to witness the evening prayer rituals. Hanuman's Temple is a living temple and an active place of worship, and as such it can be busy and crowded, particularly at weekends. If possible, we will try to enter. Afterwards, we'll explore the bustling hub of Connaught Place - a colonial-era circus of shops, bars, restaurants and street vendors.
If you'd like an airport transfer today, you'll need to arrive into New Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL), which is around 45 minutes from our hotel.
Please note, that if you'd like to join the city tour today, you'll need to arrive at the hotel by 4pm. If you're booking your own flights, we recommend giving yourself at least one hour to clear the airport. The drive from the airport to the hotel is then around 45 minutes, therefore the latest your flight can arrive is 2pm. If you miss the welcome meeting, your tour leader will inform you of any essential information as soon as you catch up.
