Bengal Tigers of Tadoba Photography Tour

Day 1
At noon we will pick you up from Nagpur Airport or nearby hotels, and transfer you to your luxury lodge on the edge of Tadoba National Park. The route through villages and bushland takes around 5hrs, after which you will be served a delicious dinner at the lodge, followed by a short briefing about what to expect over the coming days in Tadoba.  In the evening you will have plenty of time to prepare cameras, relax at the bar, or stroll through the grounds.

Days 2-5
An early start! After a light pre-breakfast of fruit and tea (tea is a staple in India) you will board your safari jeep and head into the park. The earlier we depart the more likely we are to see tigers on the move, returning from the hunt, so we will arrive at the park gates by 6am. After a couple of hours concentrating on crepuscular wildlife, we will have a more substantial breakfast served in the park to keep you going until lunchtime.

Around 11:30am we will return to the hotel for lunch, then head back into the park for more tiger encounters until sunset. The park is home to a wealth of other animals including leopards, sloth bears, wild dogs, and numerous antelope and deer species; an important part of the tiger’s diet!
Dinner is served in the early evening, allowing plenty of time to download images, charge batteries, and relax before drifting off into dreams filled with tigers.

Days 6
After a final morning safari in Tadoba National Park, we will transfer you back to Nagpur for the flight to Guwahati where you will spend the night in a comfortable hotel.

Days 7
Breakfast in Guwahati, lunch at your luxury lodge at Kaziranga National Park. In the afternoon, you will head into the park for your first encounter with the iconic one horned rhinos and asiatic elephants.

Days 8-9
Two full days in the lush green landscapes of Kaziranga National Park photographing rhinos, elephants, and many other potential species including Indian gaur, swamp deer, barking deer, smoth coated otters, wild water buffalo, jungle cats, bengal tigers, leopards, and sloth bears.

Day 10
After a final immersive morning safari with the abundant wildlife of Kaziranga, we will bring you back to Guwahati Airport in time for an evening flight.

Optional 2 night primate photography extension
Although you will almost certainly see numerous troops of grey langurs during the trip, if you are keen to photograph a wider diversity of primates, we offer an opportunity to extend your stay at the lodge in Kaziranga for a trekking adventure with Hoolock Gibbons, Capped Langurs, Assamese macaques, Stump-tailed Macaques, and Pigtailed Macaques.
