India’s attractions are vast. Historical monuments, distinct ethnic cultures, vibrant religious life with amazing pilgrimage sites abound. Most tourists arrive to sample the diversity of India inherent in its spectacular temples, fairs and festivals, its decorative arts and variety of landscapes from Himalayas to Thar Desert, Ganges plain, canals of Kerala and jungles of south.
Unquestionably one of India’s most special attractions are its national parks harboring the vanishing population of tigers and Asiatic lion. India tiger tours appear to lure most guests. Ranthambore National Park gets the most arrivals as it is part of a typical tour of Rajasthan, the most favored destination amongst first-time India guests.
If wildlife safari, photographing wildlife and birds is on your list of priorities then you should consider adding two more parks your India wildlife parks tour. Those two parks that will be effortlessly added to Ranthambore are Bandhavgarh and Kanha National Parks. The ideal itinerary to see these three parks would be as follows:
Day 1 Arrive in Delhi
Day 2 Take a train from Delhi to Sawai Madhopur, a little town along with a gateway for the Ranthambore National Park. That afternoon you may already pay a visit to within the wildlife park sanctuary.
Day 3 Full day at Ranthambore with two safaris, one in the morning and one in the late afternoon.
Day 4 In the morning depart by train for Bharatpur to pay a visit to Keoladeo Ghana wildlife sanctuary. This really is another park worth visiting because it lies en route for the other two parks.
Day 5 Obviously coming to this portion of India only tends to make sense that you simply drop in to admire the legendary Taj Mahal in Agra, and at the same time the fortress of Fatehpur Sikri.
Day 6 See Taj at sunrise, an incredible experience, then board an overnight train for Umaria.
Day 7 Upon arrival at Umaria we take you to Bandhavgarh national park where in the late afternoon you can do your first wildlife safari.
Day 8 As in Ranthambore, you’ll have two safaris, morning and late afternoon, to tour Bandhavgarh NP.
Day 9 Time to leave Bandhavgarh and continue to Kanha national park by road to commence your aftyernoon safari as the heat of the day recedes.
Day 10 As within the other parks, two safaris are the staple plan at Kanha on this day.
Day 11 You may remain yet another day at Kanha and do two extra safaris. Kanha has essentially the most tigers of the three parks, said to number close to one hundred, and many visitors favor the opportunity for an added day hoping to take advantage of another encounter with the elusive tiger.
Day 12 Time to leave Kanha; first drive to Jabalpur railway station and from there continue by train to Delhi; this is an overnight train ride.
Day 13 Arrive in Delhi, transfer to airport for the departure from India or continue for your next destination on your India tour.
Remember, these are the parks you can easily visit on a two week tour of India. There are great parks in the north, north-east and south of India, but visiting those will require an itinerary that will focus just on those respective areas.
