“India 🇮🇳 Tala ~Tiger Safari in Bandhavgar National Park”
This would be our second Tiger Safari. The first location we chose was a beautiful place and we had a wonderful Safari with plenty of indigenous Wildlife (Chitwan Nation Park in Nepal), but the chances of seeing a wild Tiger there is rare, but we were not told this during our inquiry. We had even hired a zoologist, in hope of upping our chances of seeing the Tiger in the wild. But, it wasn’t meant to be, though we saw a lot of sign, Tigers were, indeed, in this park, and we learned a lot about tracking.
I set my sights on another Tiger Safari, after doing even more research.
This next Tiger Safari would be in India. We would fly north out of Mumbai for 1.5 hours, then ride by car for about 5 hours. It would be a long trip, to reach Bandhavgar National Park in the Madhya Pradesh Provence. It would also be so interesting, and be well worth the effort and expense, because we had the best tour lined up; the guides and location could not have been better!
We would end out five-day Safari making 11 Tiger sightings and 9 different Tigers! WOW!
The Wild Bengal Tiger in the Wild is really something to see! We were so close to them many times, and they would look right at us in the eyes! Having seen many wild Lions on Safari, I noted a big difference between the two cat species. Lions do not look at you, directly.
Thanks to “A Little Monkey Business Safari,” we had the perfect Tiger Safari. We absolutely recommend them! Varun Mani was our representative and now the owner, who became our friend. He really cares about his customers.
