Tiger Safari Bharat (India)

Excellent tiger safari and stay at Tuli, Pench. An excellent experience all round. The company were very responsive and flexible when I was organising the trip - I dealt with Deepkul for this and he remained in contact throughout and was very helpful. We flew into Nagpur and the company organised an overnight stay at a hotel and a driver for a day to take us around Nagpur. In the afternoon we had a guide Abhijit who was superb, taking us to the places we wanted to go including Hindu temples and a market - his expertise and local knowledge was invaluable. We then were driven to Pench where we stayed at Tuli in a luxury tent for 4 days. There were some minor problems when we first arrived - including a toilet not working - but these were sorted by the very helpful staff. The food was excellent and the setting around a lake was lovely. We had 6 safari drives over the 4 days (8 drives had been booked but we chose to cancel 2 to allow more time to relax at the resort) and our constant guide, Subash (not sure I’ve spelt the name correctly) was outstanding - his knowledge of the flora and fauna including an amazing variety of birds was exceptional. We saw 3 tigers, 4 leopards, 4 wild dogs with a kill, several jackels, wild boar, deer and over 60 different birds. Overall, the experience met and exceeded our expectations. Well done to all and highly recommended.

ATUL best guide ever 🙏🙌🏻☺️ what an incredible experience! I really loved the 10 safaris with our driver ATUL!!!! He is truly the best driver in India! He will always know how to place you in the best position! ATUL is not only a driver he is also a guide, he knows absolutely everything!!!! But before being a driver and a guide, he is above all a human like you rarely meet…. If you go through there, don’t hesitate, he’s the one you should contact.

Amazing 26 Day 2023/2024 Winter Safari to India My wife and I have just returned from a 26 day wildlife safari arranged for us by Mr. Sharad Vats and his team at Nature Safari India. We have used this company in the past (i.e., 2010 to 2015) for six different wildlife tours/safaris to India, three of these being with groups (numbering from 20 to 30 total people) of students and professors from my university. As was the case then, this most recent wildlife adventure to India wads as amazing as the previous ones, all primarily because of the outstanding services overseen and arranged for by Nature Safari India. Our December - 2023 to January - 2024 adventure began by arriving in New Delhi on 19 December. Having two full free days in this city before our wildlife adventure proper began, Nature Safari India arranged for us an impromptu visit to both the Okhla Bird Sanctuary in Uttarpradesh (an hour long drive from the downtown New Delhi) and, the following day, an excursion to the famous Swaminarayan Akshardham Temple in Delhi. Our guides for both of these were top notch and greatly added to these enjoyable experiences. The attached hawk Owl is a good example of the outstanding quality of bird sightings that we enjoyed at the Okhla Bird Sanctuary. Flying to Leh, Ledakh in northern India and beginning our official safari itinerary, we initially stayed at the Grand Dragon Hotel. With striking views of the Himalayas from the third story room we stayed in, this large marble and wood facility is a very upscale establishment. Our two nights there at about 9,000 feet elevation and were intended to help us become acclimated to the altitude. During the day, our driver took us out in search of wildlife in the nearby countryside. This enables us to see and get some very good video and photographs of Urial, a high altitude sheep native to this area of India. I can only thank Nature Safari India for having gotten us such a good driver and wildlife guide. We then headed off to the Snow leopard Lodge in Ulley, Ledakh. Here we saw another species of wild sheep as well as numerous birds. Again, our guides were absolutely first rate as they proved adept at finding us a number of bird species. With snow being in short supply this winter season (2023 - 2024), it proved very difficult to track the snow leopards and, hence, this season yielded few sightings compared to previous years. But this is no fault of Nature Safari India. indeed, my wife and I are eagerly anticipating returning to Ledakh (under the arrangements of Nature Safari India) in two years to try again try (and perhaps finally be successful!) in seeing this great feline predator of the high altitude. We just hope that snow levels in the Himalayas will have then returned to normal. The remaining 17 days of our Indian wildlife adventure were spent visiting the Bharatapur Bird Santuary in Rajasthan, Manas National Park, Kaziranga National Park, and the Hollongapar Gibbon Sanctuary in Assam, India. The guides and lodging that Nature Safari India had arranged for us were all first rate. Indeed, we have Nature Safari india to therefore thanking in getting us great viewing/photograph/video opportunities for the followin g species: Hoolock gibbon, greater Asiatic one-horned rhinoceros, Asian Elephant, Asiatic wild buffalo, various deer and antelope species, a great range of bird (including six owl species, one of these being the dusky eagle owl), and Bengal tigers (two of these seen in Kaziranga National Park, a tiger reserve known for being very, very difficult in which to get a tiger sighting). Thank you, Nature Safari India, for having phoned us along the way to inquire as to how the safari was progressing. We were always happy to report that it was amazing. The pictures that i add to this review should affirm that.

Incredible India My husband and I just returned from two weeks in India where we visited two National Parks, Kanha and Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve and had several spectacular tiger sightings among some other animals on both parks which were recommended by the most professional travel agent Mrs. Ishana Vats. The trip was arranged by Nature Safari India and since my first contact, I knew I was dealing with a highly professional agency. It was very well designed, not only we visited the national parks, but we also included cultural places like Delhi, Agra, Rajasthan, Jaipur, and Varanasi, what a beautiful vacation, what a learning experience! We like to express our sincere gratitude to all and every single one of you: guides, drivers, chefs, housekeeping, everybody… some names I won’t be able to remember or might be misspelled, but one more time, a deep thanks to Ishana, Deepkul, Ashuck; Shanu Hussain, our top of the line guide in Agra who is an excellent photographer as well; Kamish; Namreta and Atum for the ability both of you have to position us to have front row seat during the tiger sightings, Dranyavaat; Rahul, Bemol, Neha, Suri, our dear chef Kim and some many more. NATURE SAFARI INDIA what an outstanding team you have! Valerio & Virginia

Four Tiger Reserves of India We went to India with our regular tour company and they did a great job as usual. We then chose an Indian tour company to take us to four tiger reserves. The company we choose was Nature Safari India. We had a guide that me us in each destination, and did the tier reserve tour with the help of a driver. Most of the Time we had jeep like suzuki Gypasi's. And we four four to the vehicle wife and I guide and driver. There are no guarentees when hoping that a tiger will cross the road in front of you,yet we can see that we saw tigers in all the parks we went to. The guide anticipated the tigers' movements and by and large went to where the tiger was to come out of the bush. This was our first time with Nature Safari and we did not know what to expect. We had a great time although we needed to touch base with them on when transportation was coming etc. They use what's app and got back to us quickly. Movig use from park to park was a variety of modes. If by plane then they had someone at the front of the airport exit with our name on a card. Sometimes the transport was ground and I believe they use one company that galve us great service (more on that later). Most of the drives were in comfortable Toyota suvs to handle the 4-6 hour drives. The accomodations were comfortable with the exception of Jim Corbett reserve which has older buildings from the Brtish era. These are located an hour drive inside the park, so it is efficient to stay there but no heat, but they give you hot water bottles for the bed. I would still choose to stay there otherwise to go on the tour you would need to drive at lease an hour in and an hour back. Yes they are pretty spartan but adds to the charm. Our favorite Park was Jim Corbett up northwest of Dehli about 6 hr drive and in the foothills of the Himilayas. The guide, Bhuppi Mehra was really top notch. We also found that the driver assigned to get us there and back was an interesting entrepreneur who owns the transport company. His name is Parveen Pritampura. I would highly recommend him and his company for any transport needs in or near Dehli. He certainly does transport of at least 6 hrs out of Dehli/ His mobile is9650046035, and he can handle everything soup to nuts . Great service and does what you ask.

Tigers mean Nature Safari India From the initial contact, through the booking procedure to finally the actual Safaris at Kanha and Bandhavgerh my experience with Nature Safari India couldn’t have been bettered. I travel regularly with companies specialising and Nature Safari India are clearly the best I have ever dealt with. Every member of Staff that I dealt with were superb and those 6 tigers, I can’t stop smiling

Superb service and guide Nature Safari really made our Indian safari experience a great success. From helping us navigate which National Park to go and the best way to visit it, how to get in and out of the park, taking care of all the accommodation, every detail was spot on. And our guide in Bandhavgarh National Park Sanjay Gupta was just the absolute best. His driving, his knowledge, his friendliness, his instincts and his drive to help us find tigers (and other animals) were outstanding and we couldn't have been happier to have him for the entire duration of our safari in Bandhavgarh.

Excellent tiger safari An excellent and well organised trip to tiger safari. Very good communication from the beginning when I booked and all the way throughout the trip. Parveen drove me from Delhi to Ranthambore- very curtious and good driving. Stayed at the tigress which was lovely and was lucky on 3 of my safaris. Recommend

Exceptional experience and world-class service! From the first enthusiastic communications about planning our custom trip, to the recommendations for parks and accommodations, every detail was taken care of and our trip exceeded our expectations. We were greeted at the airport with a warm welcome from Abhishek, had excellent drivers, wonderful places to stay, amazing food and top-notch service. The guides at each park were very knowledgable and happy to accommodate any requests. The wildlife viewing was beyond amazing - saw lots of tigers, elephants, rhinos, birds and much more. Hope to go back and exploring other areas and would only book again with Nature Safari India. HIGHLY recommend this tour company - you will not regret having them arrange your trip!

A magnificent adventure! I am so glad you arranged my trip it was wonderful. Thank you Ishana for your input and your patience to make this trip amazing. The hotels were really beautiful and special. The guides you chose for us were very kind, knowledgeable and made sure we felt safe and had amazing sightings. Your colleges were also very attentive and efficient. I would use your services again in a heartbeat and hopefully will in the near future. Thank you again we had a wonderful time, always felt taken care of and safe.
