Tiger Photography Safari Tour, Bandhavgarh & Taj Mahal. India Safari – Tigers, Dholes, Gharials & the Taj Mahal.
This Tiger Photography Safari to India has been designed to provide you with viewings of two of the things that most people wish to see during a visit to India. Tigers in the wild, and the Taj Mahal. The two locations have been seamlessly combined into one safari.
There will be a maximum of three clients per vehicle during any safari. Photographers on Safari have also combined the hustle and bustle of Tiger Safaris with a beautifully relaxing few days on the Chambal River, where you will have the opportunity to photograph some amazing birdlife as well as the critically endangered Gharials.
Less than 4. 00 adults of this spectacular fish- eating Crocodile species remain in the world today. The Best Location to see Tigers in India. Where is the best place to see Tigers in India?
This is a question that is regularly asked of me. There is no definitive answer to this question and the very nature of Tigers’ behaviour makes the answer to this question somewhat unpredictable. Ranthambhore is by far the easiest Tiger park to reach after flying to India. The problem with Ranthambhore is that the zones are allocated randomly on a daily basis. There is very little chance of seeing a tiger in half of the zones. I have also visited Khana twice in the last three years.
It is a beautiful park but you are only likely to expect two reasonable quality sightings during a whole week’s safaris. Bandhavgarh has consistently provided more sightings than any other park, but things have recently become more uncertain there.
The situation regarding the dominant male Tigers has become quite unstable and it lacks a really dominant male. This means that cubs and sometimes even their mothers are killed by the incoming males. This makes the female tigers more wary and more difficult to see. At this moment in time, Tadoba National Park has no such problems and appears to be by far and away the best option in India. The 2. 01. 6 safari provided clients with 1.
Tiger sightings. They saw 9 different animals. They also saw Sloth Bears, Wild Dogs and a Leopard. The Gharials were extremely abundant. Why I recommend Tadoba National Park. I cannot predict how many Tigers you will see in any future trip. What I can do is to tell you what I experienced during my “recce” to Tadoba in 2.
I did eight safaris in Tadoba and saw Tigers four times. It was not the number of sightings that amazed me, but it was the incredible amount of time that we spent with the animals.
There are two females there, “P1” and “P2” that were totally at ease with vehicles and were never in any hurry to disappear deep into the woodland. That is more than the total number of pictures from all of my previous ten Tiger Safari tours to India combined. Quite astounding. About Tadoba National Park. Tadoba Tiger Reserve is one of India’s 4. Project Tiger Reserves and is situated some 1. Nagpur. Tadoba has now been amalgamated with two other reserves which form the Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve.
Our time will be spent solely in the former Tadoba Reserve. Tadoba itself is 1.
The park’s landscape is dominated by teak forest and bamboo. There are also cliffs, caves, marshes, lakes and streams. Tadoba is home to 6.
The Park is closed on Tuesdays, but the buffer zone remains open for jeep safaris on that day. The Mammals and Birds. The species that I photographed were; Bengal Tigers, Asian Leopard, Sloth Bear, Guar (Indian Bison), Nilgai, Dhole (Indian Wild Dogs), Sambar Deer, Spotted Deer, Barking Deer, Wild Boar, Chausingha and Marsh Crocodiles.
I did not spend a great deal of time photographing smaller birds, but was quite successful with raptors. I photographed Crested Serpent Eagle, Changeable Hawk Eagle, Grey Headed Fish Eagle, White Eyed Buzzard, Crested Honey Buzzard, Stork Billed Kingfisher and Shikra.
Tadoba’s Tigers. Whilst there are quite a number of tigers to be seen in Tadoba, I chose to spend the most time with those that would give the best photo opportunities. These were the dominant male Tiger, the pregnant female “P2” plus “P1” and her two 1. I spent in excess of 4 hours in the company of these 5 tigers during my eight safaris in Tadoba.
I was able to photograph them from every angle imaginable and in many varied lighting conditions. It was an unbelievable experience and I had to keep pinching myself to make sure that I wasn’t dreaming. You will note that one of the Tigresses is now pregnant and should have cubs with her that will be less than a year old for our 2. Dholes (Indian Wild Dogs)I have only seen a glimpse of one of these animals prior to my visit to Tadoba. I saw a pack of four on four of my eight safaris here. They are really beautiful animals and were totally oblivious to our presence.
They walked by our vehicle not more than a couple of metres away on several occasions. Once again I was with these animals for much longer than anyone would expect in such a brief visit. I was with them for more than 9. Our first sighting saw them run past the Tigress with her two cubs.
The Tigress was not pleased and chased one of them deep into the woods. The others dashed back and forth giving animated alarm calls. Then the Tiger cubs emerged and gave chase to the other three.
Our third sighting saw the Dholes eating a Sambar Deer carcass within 3 metres of the road. A Leopard had killed the Sambar Deer and had been chased off by the Dogs. One was eating and the other three were keeping watch at all times. They took turns to eat or to be on guard duty. This pack has puppies that are hidden away at this moment in time. They should, hopefully, be regularly seen in 2. Asian Leopard. Leopards are usually seen only for brief moments and they are, more often than not, partially obscured by trees and grasses.
Once again I was amazed at the amount of time spent with this gorgeous creature. She was with us for more than 3. As mentioned before, the Leopard had been driven off from her kill by the Wild Dogs. Twice she circled round to see if the Dogs had finished eating.
Within minutes of the Dogs disappearing she was back near the carcass. She carefully approached from several different directions before shooting back into the undergrowth. Finally, once that she was sure that it was safe, she went back to the Sambar and had her fill. Svasara Jungle Lodge, Tadoba.
Svasara Jungle Lodge is the premier luxury destination at Tadoba and is situated just 3. It is set in 1. 0 acres and has 1. Each room has air conditioning, a fridge, colour tv, a fan plus an en- suite shower and toilet. The fixtures and fittings are not dissimilar to those found in any European hotel. The food is excellent and quite varied. Rooms are on a twin- share basis but single rooms are available at extra cost.
The hotel will provide the services of an English speaking naturalist guide during our safaris. The Taj Mahal. No visit to India would be complete without a visit to the world- famous Taj Mahal. What is even more fortuitous is that we are due to arrive in Agra at 5. That means that we can do an early morning visit, which is always the best time, and also our afternoon boat safari on the Chambal River. The Taj Mahal is one of the “Seven Wonders of the World” and is a truly spectacular monument. You will be shown the best vantage points from where to take some stunning photographs that you will treasure forever.
The National Chambal Sanctuary. This sanctuary was created in 1. Gharial. It has been a huge success and the species has been brought back from the brink of extinction. It consists of a 4. Fishing has been totally banned and all wildlife, shrubs and trees in this area are protected.
This provides a safe habitat and a plentiful supply of fish for the Gharials. The Gharials are similar to crocodiles but uniquely have a long slender snout with a large bulbous tip. This sanctuary is the only place in the world where Gharials can be found, and the numbers have now risen to around one thousand.
There are also around 3. Marsh Crocodiles here –another critically endangered species, and a number of Gangetic Dolphin in the river. The stretch of river that we use is between one and two kilometers wide. It is often flat calm with mirror- like reflections but there can also sometimes be ripples across parts of the river. Gharials. Whereas Crocodiles are often described as prehistoric or ugly, the Gharials are stunningly beautiful. Their long snout is packed with rows of much smaller razor- like teeth than the Crocodile, and their unique profile makes them much more appealing than it’s counterpart. They also have a much brighter and smoother skin, which gives them some amazing colours in the early morning or late evening light.
Some of the Gharials are very nervous and disappear into the water when our boat is quite a distance away. Others stay much longer and will allow us to get within a few metres of them. The Chambal River is not considered to be a “holy river” and does not attract the constant washing and bathing by the local people. This means that the water is crystal clear and almost without pollution. The Gharials live for up to 6. I photographed one of these giants here in 2. River Dolphins and various Mammals.
You will have the opportunity see the highly endangered Gangetic Dolphin while on the river. They show themselves from time to time as they breach the water’s surface, showing about half of their body. This is extremely brief and virtually impossible to photograph. You will see lots of Red Crowned Roof Turtles from our small private boats. I also photographed a number of Jackals, Rhesus Macaques, Nilgai, a Bengal Monitor Lizard and a Jungle Cat. A large number of Indian Flying Foxes and the occasional Owl roost in trees in the grounds of our lodge and can easily be photographed most times throughout the day.
The Birdlife. The Chambal River is a bird watcher’s paradise and the sanctuary currently boasts 3. These include the rare Indian Skimmer, Greater Thick- Knees and Small Pranticoles.

It is therefore advised that you are always polite but firm in your refus.* The street vendors are frequently relentless and even a casual inquiry about their ware can result in a vicious chase.* Be cautious about fake articles, particularly the marble mementos, which could be cheap articles made up of chalk. Be extremely cautious about the road side food, as it might easily land you up with a bout of diarrhea.* It is always advisable to source your water bottles only from your hotel and carry them with you.* When hiring a rickshaw, or planning a camel ride, try to drive a hard bargain for the best possible price.
