TATR or Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve lies in Chandrapur district of Maharastra in Central India. It is the largest and the oldest national park of Maharastra. Tadoba is a name of the God praised by the forest dwellers and Andhari is the river that meanders through the forest. TATR is very unique that the other forests I have seen cos a road runs across the entire stretch of the jungle and it is a very highly commuted one. Buses ply, villagers use other modes of transport to go to their places, but they peacefully co-exist with the wildlife. The forests are on both the sides of this road. On numerous occasions’ tigers, wild dogs, leopards are sighted on the road and the vehicular movement stops till they get inside the jungle!

Early mornings are cold and late evenings are chilled!! This means the cats have to move during the mid afternoons. We will be the only jeeps present inside and we will have the best chance to click images of the Big Cats. We would have also got a clear information of any cat movement during the morning drives and to wild be very easy for us to go to that particular zone and sight the animals.
The animals are very confident and move around when there is little disturbance, so Full Day Game Drives are highly recommended by us at Ranthabore.
Gaurav will accompany the guests ( only three in a jeep including him!! ) . This gives enough and more space for the guests to carry long lenses and comfortably click images. He would share his experiences of wildlife photography and assist you to make award winning images.
Hot lunch would be served at the gates, Lunch is freshly prepared by the restaurant and would be brought to the gates for the guests to relish. Evenings snacks and hot beverages would be served. This is to keep you fresh all day and enjoy the jungle.

An apt example of an Oasis is the Keoladeo Bird Sanctuary in Rajasthan. Keoladeo, in the city of Bharatpur has a very rich history dating back a few hundred years. Approximately 250 years ago, the Maharajas built bunds to create Wetlands which in due course of time became a magnet for a plethora of migratory and resident birds. Over the years, kings, viceroys and their guests enjoyed sport hunting of ducks and other birds.
But after 1982, wildlife laws were brought in and the sanctuary was declared a National Park. It was named Keoladeo Ghana; later in 1985, Keoladeo was declared a UNESCO world Heritage site.
Measuring just about 30 sq. Km. in size, the park is home to wide variety of avian fauna. Almost 400 species of birds call this heaven their home. With the arrival of winters, the migratory birds arrive on their southern sojurn. The mist rising up from the water and the golden light with a flock of ducks amidst is any photographer's dream.
Not to forget, there are mammals too in the park and on any given day, you are bound to chance up on Nilgai, Jungle cats, Jackals and deer. Occasionally, you could see an Indian Rock Python basking in the sun.
The winters are coming! This is your chance to experience the bounties of this Heritage site. Don't waste time and shoot an email to ck@travelunbounded.com
