Walking Safari & Mobile Camping in Satpura



Walking & Mobile Safari

5 Nights / 6 Days

Walking & Mobile Safari
November 16 - November 20, 2023 AND January 21 - January 25, 2024

More than two centuries after the first safari expedition brought the Europeans in direct contacts with the wilds; the lure of the experience endures. Out of the hardship of travel across difficult terrain in colonial Africa and India, came an experience of great luxury and sensuality. This ability to imbue any environment, no matter how alien, with the comfortable elements gave the travelers an exotic travel experience.

OVERVIEW

The National Parks in India are the biggest attraction to the wildlife lovers, but due to the restrictions involved and the immense pressure of tourism the real jungle experience is limited.

Seeing the trend we bring to you the experience, where besides enjoying the national parks traditionally by jeeps, we move on to such many undisturbed areas where wilderness experience is at its very best. Tailor made to start at your desired date of travel – this safari offers high adventure, opportunity to view animals of the Indian jungle, drive through rugged hills, beautiful streams and rivers, tribal villages, ancient temples and forts and home to the Indian Tiger.

There is no electricity at campsites and accommodation is basic in tents with cots. Care is taken to provide personalized service and comforts. Camp cooks turn out delicious fresh meals to be enjoyed in exhilarating surroundings.

The safari operates from November to March and the number of guests is restricted to ten to provide good interaction and minimize pressure on camping out experience. A team of trained experienced naturalist and a camp core team accompany all the safaris.
