Exceptional experience and world-class service!
From the first enthusiastic communications about planning our custom trip, to the recommendations for parks and accommodations, every detail was taken care of and our trip exceeded our expectations. We were greeted at the airport with a warm welcome from Abhishek, had excellent drivers, wonderful places to stay, amazing food and top-notch service. The guides at each park were very knowledgable and happy to accommodate any requests. The wildlife viewing was beyond amazing – saw lots of tigers, elephants, rhinos, birds and much more. Hope to go back and exploring other areas and would only book again with Nature Safari India. HIGHLY recommend this tour company – you will not regret having them arrange your trip!

Dear Sharad ,
We are now home and have had time to reflect on our holiday. We just wanted to let you know how truly spectacular it was . The tiger safari did not disappoint it was truly an amazing experience. Our driver Sanjay went above and beyond to make each day outstanding. Finding Tigers when no one else did , just wonderful. The Treehouse Hideaway was outstanding, accommodation , staff and food . It was a holiday of a life time and definitely worth waiting for .
Our day trip of Delhi was just perfect and we managed to see a good few of the sites of this wonderful city in such a short time.
We thank you and remind ourselves every day how fortunate we were and have great gratitude for our time spent in your wonderful country.
MJ Limond and family
Namaste 🙏🏼

I just wanted to say thank you for arranging my tour. The guide was fantastic and the hotel was great. They have great facilities and staff. And the location was great. Also while a bunch of people told me Pench would be a bust, it was a great place to view Tigers.

Hi Sharad,
I just wanted to thank you for such a great experience of a safari in India. From the communication prior to being picked up at the airport through arrival in Jabalpur, to Bandhav Vila, and the safari drives themselves, it was awesome.
I was disappointed that there weren’t more tiger sightings with Sanjay, however, that is sometimes the luck of the draw. It only takes one up close to make the trip a success though, and I got that!!!! And I keep telling everybody about it every day.
Thanks again for having such a professionally laid-out trip experience. Wishing you much continued success with your endeavors in the future.

Hi Ishana,
Final note from myself to say thank you again to you and wider team. We had a wonderful time and the service you provide from start to finish was absolutely first class. We have left a quick review on TripAdvisor for you I appreciate some people in Europe may be nervous about booking directly with an Indian travel agency so if ever you need a local reference point then I am more than happy to speak to prospective clients for you.
Looking forward to our next trip when we have saved up some more pennies…
Take care.
Iain

Good Afternoon Sharad
Hot hot hot here in Panna.
Our adventure and sightings at Bandhavgargh were brilliant. Sanjay was a most considerate, knowledgeable driver guide. Most probably the best we have ever had.
We saw 11 Tigers and jungle cat along with many of fabulous birds that are to be seen.
Today on our first outing we have seen male and female leopard mating….. amazing

Dear Sharad, Ishana, and all Nature Safari team members,
We would like to thank you all very much for organizing this amazing trip for us to see the beautiful tiger.
It is certainly the most beautiful animal we ever saw and it is one of our dreams come true.
I must admit that we had counted on seeing more tigers than we did. We saw one in Pench and one in Kanha. The one in Kanha we saw very good, from close by when she was on the move. A really exceptional experience. The remembrance only gives me goosebumps again.
But this shows that man cannot control nature, and this is certainly a good thing.
Thank you, India for taking good care of the tigers for the benefit of the whole world.
Thanks to the smooth organization of the trip we only had to enjoy and lookout for the tiger.
We especially enjoyed our stay at Kanja Jungle camp. The “wilderness” atmosphere they succeed to create really made us relax totally.
The staff is very helpful and friendly.
And the bush dinner is the cherry on the pie ….
We will surely recommend nature safari to our friends and family.
Thanks to all the staff for making our trip a wonderful experience.
Kindest Regards
Suzy and Vera

Having had to wait 3 years to be able to take this trip due to COVID travel restrictions, we can certainly say it was very much worth the wait. Sharad and his team couldn’t have been more engaged and professional in both the planning and execution of our two week visit and tour of India. The Jim Corbett National Park is an absolute must for anyone wanting to see tigers in beautiful and natural surroundings. Whilst a tour of the places and temples of Agra and khajuraho leave you in awe. We were also able to spend some time at the Bandhavgarh National Park and we were also treated to incredible tiger sightings there.
This trip was a full experience of India, riding planes, trains and automobiles to explore some wonderful areas of India. India has so much to offer and the whole team at Nature Safari India from Sharad and Abhishek to all of the dedicated guides and drivers we had looking after us, ensured at all times that we had the best of experiences. We certainly did and our thanks to Nature Safari India for truly making this a trip of a lifetime.

Hurrah. I saw that leopard and then when our jeep was alone we saw it stalk and try to kill a large deer, then they both ran into the bushes. This morning a mother tiger crossed the road in front of our jeep. Everyone says I am having great luck. The chef is making me a special pizza for dinner because I mentioned to the driver that I liked it. The service here is out of this world great. Thank you so much. Despite my little health hiccups, this trip is really, truly the trip of my lifetime, and I’ve had quite a few good trips.
Thanks again. See you in Delhi.

They planned our complete stay with domestic flights, drivers to/between the parks, great accommodation and food and, not least, the safaris themselves and everything worked exceptionally well. While we were there they called us regularly to ensure we were happy and that was as expected
We are planning another wildlife trip and we will for sure use Nature Safari India again. Cannot recommend them highly enough.
Many thanks to Sharad and the team for an unforgettable experience!

Amazing 19-days Wildlife & Taj Mahal Tour
2 years ago our planned tour with Nature Safari India was cancelled for known reasons.
2 years we stayed in contact with Deepkul and Sharad by email and finally in April 2022 we could leave for our first experience in India.
It became an unforgettable adventure, we visited 4 National Parcs, Pench, Kanha, Bandhavgarh and Panna. In each we saw tigers, 20 in total on 15 safari’s.
Besides we saw leopard, wild elephant,gaur, sloth bear, deer and a wide range of beautiful birds and other wildlife, a paradise for a nature photographer.
Deepkul organised the tour for us perfectly, the naturalists, the drivers, the lodges…all was arranged faultless.
On arrival in Delhi our baggage was delayed and Deepkul arranged that our bags were delivered 3 days later in Pench…
On our way back to Delhi we visited Khajuraho, Orchha and Agra, the temples are impressing and the view of the Taj Mahal by sunset is breathtaking.
We enjoyed very much the whole tour and are planning already for going back to India next year.
Many thanks for the whole Nature Safari India team, for sure the best..

Outstanding service
Sharad and team excel at creating a custom itinerary with smooth hand-offs to guides/drivers/lodges at every stop. We originally had 2 weeks scheduled with Tiger Safari India, but then expanded to 4 weeks when another travel outfit cancelled because of Covid. Sharad was willing to wait it out with us and India reopened for tourists about a week before our trip started. Before the trip, Sharad was patient and timely on email and zoom calls to finalize all the details which included 5 major cities (Delhi, Jaipur, Agra, Varanasi, Kolkata) and 3 national parks (Kanha, Bandhavgarh, Kazaringa). This involved multiple drivers, domestic flights, and hotel/lodge changes (the longest stay was 3 nights in any location). But at each location we were welcomed by excellent guides and drivers. India is bustling and chaotic, especially the cities roads, which at first was a white-knuckle experience for us. So having welcoming guides and skillful drivers was key to our enjoyment of the trip. If you are planning an adventure to India, then I would highly recommend using Tiger Safari.

Bandhavgarh/Kaziranga/Agra Tour
We did a 10 days tour visiting Bandhavgarh and Kaziranga National Park as well as Agra. We originally wanted to go in 2020 but had to postpone until 2022 due to the Covid pandemic. The trip was amazing and exceeded our expectations by far! On 11 safaris we saw 19 tigers, countless rhinos, elephants including a new born as well as so many other kinds of animals. The lodges and hotel were great, the hospitality was amazing and the food delicious. The tour guides were excellent and had great knowledge and experience. Furthermore, they took into account to all our wishes during the drives.
The whole tour was organzied by Deepkul and his colleagues from Nature Safari India perfectly from the beginning until the end! Only a few hours after contacting and giving a rough plan what we had in mind, we received a full itinerary reflecting our suggestions. Any additional wishes from our side were considered to our fullest satisfaction. Also, when we had some technical problems with the money transfer from Germany to India every possible assistance was provided. Due to to the Covid pandemic, we had to make four attempts to find a time frame in which it was possible to travel from Germany to India until it finally worked out. In each case Deepkul arranged everything on short notice.
Additional charges were made to a minimum extent, e.g. as park fees had been increased. It was possible to keep the hotel/lodge rates for a time for over two years (and would also have been possible for a period thereafter)!
When another friend of us decided to join us on our trip only a month before going, this was no problem and arranged perfectly. All communication was fast and smoothly. When one of us had trouble flying to India (various flight cancellations and delays), Deepkul was there 24/7 to assist us in any way and find the best solution for the situation which he did!
Nature Safari India can be recommended to the fullest extent! Thank you so much for the wonderful experience!

Amazing experience
Took 2 solo custom safaris with Tiger Safaris in Mar2022. 4 days in Kanha and 4 days in Bandavgargh.
I could not have asked for better experiences. Having been on 10+ safaris in 5 countries in Africa previously, I had high expectations. And they did not disappoint.
Seeing a tiger in the wild was high on my bucket list. And Sharad’s guides (Narain and Sanjay – more on them later) were fantastic in making sure I saw several. From mere feet away.
Trip was very well planned – to maximize safari time. And the stays were in great resorts, close to the safari gates – so we didn’t waste time every day driving to the safari gates. And his drivers worked with the hotels to make sure all breakfasts were packed and loaded each morning.
Jeeps were comfortable (if a little small).
On the ground execution was flawless – from airport pickups to daily drives to driving between parks. All done with polite drivers willing to go the extra mile – stop whenever I wanted it, help buying me an Indian SIM, finding the kinds of food I wanted to eat. And speaking very good English. Special shoutout to Durgesh – who drive me from Raipur to Kanha, and then Kanha to Bandhavgarth.
In Kanha – my guide/driver Narain was great. Made sure we were perfectly positioned on several occasions to have a full-frontal view of a tiger walking towards us. And he took the time to explain what we has listening/looking for: alarm calls, pug marks. And he had an encyclopedic knowledge of birds. Thanks Narain for an amazing experience.
In Bandhavgarh – Sanjay, my driver and guide was just as good. Getting a good view of tigers in the dense brush, I discovered, is as much luck (right time, right place) as good tracking. And I had both here. He made sure I got some amazing views of tigers up close.
Sharad (the owner) runs a great company. He is understanding and flexible. Checks in almost daily to make sure everything is going well. And his drivers/guides are wonderful.
Thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Can’t wait to go back and do more with this company.

A Grand Adventure
This trip was a wonderful experience, partly because India is fascinating, culturally challenging, physically both ugly and beautiful and because Sharad, with his able assistant Abhishek, made it absolutely stress free. With the help of his network of people all over India, we were met us at every airport to transfer us to our hotel, guided expertly through the National Parks and in the cities we visited and driven expertly through streets crowded with traffic, speed bumps, pot holes and cows. The parks we visited were Kanha, Bandvangarh and Kazaringa. All uniquely different and teaming with wildlife. Although we had only two tiger sightings, one very brief, the other wildlife and birds made up for that. And the lodges at the National Parks are so unique and comfortable, good food, beautiful settings and more than attentive staff. We also did several days of culture outings, seeing the Gandhi Museum, the Taj Mahal, the Red Fort and many beautiful tombs, temples. We visited Varanasi, the place where Hindus travel to wash in the sacred river, the Ganges and cremate their deceased loved ones. We were even invited to celebrate the Holi Festival at the home of one of the agents that met the flight. That was the highlight of the trip… the people are warm, welcoming and delighted to meet foreigners.
All this would not have been possible without Sharad and his team all over India. Even though it is, crowded, noisy and there is the fear of getting a little sick from the change of diet, none of those factors got in the way. And it’s also a bargain, no where have I had everything literally organized and taken care of so all I had to do was show up in the hotel lobby or the safari parking lot and my whole day way taken care of! I can’t recommend Nature Safaris enough!
