By creating pathways for tigers to travel between Bor Wildlife Sanctuary, Nagzira, and Kanha National Park, Pench is gradually recovering its standing as one of the best tiger reserves in India for tiger safaris.
Kanha National Park will host the third and last stop on your Indian tiger safari. This park spans the districts of Mandala and Kalaghat and is tucked away in Madhya Pradesh's Maikal range of Satpuras. When compared to other wildlife reserves in India, the park is a shining example of effective tourism management and conservation activities.
DETAILED ITINERARY
Day 1: Arrival in New Delhi
When you get to the New Delhi Airport, our representative will meet you. He will help you
check in and make sure your transfer to the hotel goes smoothly. You will receive and be given
an explanation of all your travel documents. Stay at the hotel for the night.

It will take you approximately four hours to drive the 210 kilometers. To get a sense of Kanha,
roll down your windows for the final hour of your drive through the forest. You've entered
Rudyard Kipling's world. After checking into your resort, you can relax for the rest of the day.
Day 3 – 4: In Kanha National Park
Enjoy a warming drink and an early wake-up call before embarking on a morning tiger safari
drive through the forest. There is a calm feeling as the sun rises over the hills and breaks through
the thick sal woods. Monkeys chatter, deer graze, and small animals dart through the underbrush
while the park is filled with the sounds of vibrant birds, creating a stunning spectacle.
In addition to India, Kanha Tiger Reserve is among the top areas in the world for protecting
wildlife. It is impossible to believe the captivating magnificence of this park without seeing it.
Listen to Kanha National Park while on a silent safari; it has a lot to say. The core of the Kanha
Tiger Reserve, created in 1974 as part of Project Tiger, is made up of 940 square kilometers of
rolling meadows, running streams, and sal and bamboo forests.
The difficult-to-find hardground Barasingha can only be found in the park. This is the actual
Kipling country that he so eloquently detailed in The Jungle Book. A packed breakfast from the
Lodge is placed on the safari vehicle's bonnet and served at a designated spot. Savor your
morning meal amidst the untamed bush.
Go back to the Lodge to change and have a quick lunch. Take a moonlight tiger safari after lunch
to experience what the forest has to offer.
After dusk, head back to the Lodge for dinner and relax for the remainder of the day.

Day 6 - 7: In Pench National Park
Morning and afternoon jeep safaris to the Pench National Park are planned, and the resort will
host lunches and overnight accommodations. A total of 758 square kilometers are covered by the
tropical dry deciduous teak forest and this tropical wet deciduous forest in Southern India. Only
during specific seasons of the year are most of the region's streams and nallahs active. These
streams cut through the countryside.
Even though the Pench River stops flowing at the end of April, there are still a number of water
pools in the area that are called “dohs” and serve as watering holes for the many wild animals.
During the pinch time, the only significant supply of water is the Pench Reservoir, which is
located in the middle of the park. The watering holes along the Pench River are the greatest
places to watch tigers because there is a significant concentration of prey in that area. This is a
common location for tigers to prowl for their prey. Leopards are typically seen operating in the
more outer sections of the forest, however they can also be spotted in the interior of the forest on
occasion.
In the Pench region, cheetal and sambar are commonly seen grazing in open spaces, such as
along the shorelines of reservoirs, riverbanks, and roadsides. At any time of day, jackals can be
seen wandering about the park looking for food. The Reserve's Chhedia, Jamtara, Bodanala, and
Pyorthadi portions are where packs of up to 15 or more wild dogs can be seen.
It is common to witness herds of gaur among bamboo forests and streams during the summer
months. Sloth bears are usually found on rockier terrain, especially in woods afflicted with
mahul bel. Even though they are extremely rare, Chinkaras can sometimes be found in open,
non-forested areas.
Day 8: Pench – Satpura (210 Kms 5 hrs drive)
