TIGER TOURS IN INDIA - Asian Adventures

Tiger, the biggest cat in the big cat family is only found in thirteen countries all around the world. There was a time when the Tigers were close to extinction, but due to the conservation efforts by the governments of India, Nepal and Bhutan and establishment of Tiger Reserves, populations of these majestic creatures are once again starting to bloom. As per the recent survey, more than two-thirds of the total population of Tigers in the world resides in India. So if you are looking forward to having a rendezvous with the fabled feline, India is your best bet. Mid of October to Mid of June is the best time of year to see Tigers in India. If you are willing on taking Tiger tours in India, make sure you include the following destinations:

1) Corbett National Park
Established in 1936 by hunter turned conservationist Jim Corbett, Corbett National Park in
Pangot is India’s first National Park. The park harbours a plethora of animal species, Tiger being
the centre of attraction. The marvellous setting of the park in the backdrop of Nainital hills
definitely makes it worthy of a visit.




2) Ranthambore National Park
One of the largest national parks of Rajasthan, encompassing an area of 1143 sq km,
Ranthambhore is one of the most famous Tiger reserves in India. Tigers can be easily spotted
here on a safari during daytime. In spite of being so close to the urban area Ranthambore has
somehow sustained and retained the Tigers within its premises.




3) Bandhavgarh National Park
Bandhavgarh boasts of having the highest density of Tigers in India. Located amidst Vindhya and Satpura ranges Bandhavgarh National Park is the dwelling ground for more than a hundred
Bengal Tigers which roam around carefree in the dense forests of Satpura.




4) Pench National Park
One of the lesser known Tiger sanctuaries in India, Pench National Park is believed to have
inspired Rudyard Kipling’s Jungle Book. Who knows, you might get a chance to see Sher Khan
lurking in the wild.




Kanha National Park is a unique sanctuary as it protects both prey and the predator. The
endangered Barasingha Deer as well as the Tiger, both are inhabitants of this picturesque park. If you are lucky you might even get to see four to five Tigers in a day.



Sundarbans is the largest mangrove ecosystem in the whole world, and its rather inhospitable
environment has proven to be a boon for Royal Bengal Tigers. But be careful as you step into the wilderness of this enchanted land as the Tigers here are notorious for being maneaters.



Tigers are elusive creatures, always shrouded in mystery, which makes them one of the most sought after animals in the world. India is rife with wildlife sanctuaries and national parks that replete with Tigers, so if you wish to go on a Tiger Safari India is your dream destination.
