MUMBAI: Even as the year winds to an end, with the chill of the winter making its way across the country, now is the perfect time to escape routine and become one with nature. This season, plan a holiday with loved ones in the sanctity of India’s leading national parks with Taj Safaris – India’s first luxury wildlife circuit, where you can explore the resplendent biodiversity that India is known for.
Located within the key safari circuits in Madhya Pradesh, the Taj Safaris’ lodges located in the forests of Pench, Kanha, Bandhavgarh and Panna bring alive the concept of glamping, where luxury camping weaves in the local culture and heritage of the forests and their tribes. With the dry winter months known to drive local wildlife to congregate around food and water sources, winter is the perfect time to track the Royal Bengal Tiger in the jungles that they call home.
Not just the big cat, the jungles are also home to a wide variety of wildlife. Be it the Barasingha, which is native to Kanha; or Marsh Crocodile that can be spotted on a boat ride on the river Ken in Panna; sloth bear and leopards at Bandhavgarh; and the wild boar and nilgai at Pench, which inspired The Jungle Book – the forests are teeming with wildlife. They are also home to a vast variety of flora such as the mahua or Butter Tree, Kaithor Wood Apple tree, Kullu or Ghost Tree and more.
Be it embarking on safari drives with Taj Safaris’ expert naturalists or delighting in a number of curated experiences such as nature walks, cozy bush dinners under the starry skies or exploring the rich history and heritage of the local tribes, there is something for everyone seeking adventure at Taj Safaris.
