On a professionally designed tiger safari tour, Bandhavgarh and Corbett national parks provide you the best blend of wildlife and landscape to see the majestic white tusks and the national animal of India.

James Edward Corbett, or Jim Corbett if you prefer, was the mastermind behind the development of Corbett National Park and everything that surrounds it. For decades, millions of readers have been enthralled by his enthralling tales of shikars in the foothills of the Himalayas. In this wonderful park, wildlife photography in India also had its start. From the time of FW Champion until the present, Corbett has been a photographer’s Mecca. Visit Corbett because of its incredible diversity, beauty, and mystique if you want to understand Indian wildlife.
Bandhavgarh is without a doubt one of India’s best parks for seeing the biggest cat. It’s not the first time this has happened; for almost 25 years, Bandhavgarh has continuously ranked first in rankings of the best and most Tiger sightings. The foundation of Indian wildlife tourism was this National Park. It was the sole cause of the sector’s extraordinary early growth in terms of wildlife tourism.

Bandhavgarh National Park

However, if more than the jungles, it is the stealth and gait of the tiger that tempts you more, then you may come visiting in April-May where the vegetation is spare and so you will be able to view the tigers out in the open.
The four zones of this park- Magadhi, Khitauli, Tala, and Panpatta-are said to be the hub of Royal Bengal tigers. Visitors also come here for sightseeing as the park has several historical monuments and remains of caves that are nearly 2000 years old.
