17 days/16 nights
Embark on a 17-days India Wildlife Safari, capturing India’s Big Five—the Royal Bengal Tiger, One-Horned Rhinoceros, Asiatic Elephant, Leopard, and Indian Gaur.
The journey begins in the grasslands of Kaziranga National Park, home to the one-horned rhinoceros. As the morning sun illuminates the wetlands, we will frame these prehistoric giants grazing or wading through shimmering waters.
Next, we head to Rajaji National Park, a rugged sanctuary where the elusive leopard prowls.
At Jim Corbett National Park, India’s oldest wildlife reserve, we will photograph herds of Asiatic elephants and Royal Bengal Tiger, which we will seek along riverbanks and jungle trails.
Our tiger quest continues in Tadoba National Park, known as the “Land of Tigers.” Here, we will photograph these regal felines resting, stalking prey, or making dramatic appearances near waterholes.
The expedition concludes in Kanha National Park, the inspiration for Rudyard Kipling’s Jungle Book. Its vast meadows and towering sal forests provide cinematic backdrops for our final tiger encounters. We will also have a chance to photograph the Indian Gaur, often seen grazing at dusk, completing our Big Five collection.
As per the recent order of the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India, the use of mobile phones for photography and videography is strictly prohibited inside all National Parks and Tiger Reserves across Central India and Maharashtra.
We request all guests to prepare accordingly for their jungle safaris.
To ensure you don’t miss out on capturing your wildlife moments, we can arrange an easy-to-use bridge camera for your safari experience. Please let us know in advance if you would like to reserve one.

I’m a professional wildlife photographer, explorer, and award-winning visual storyteller based in Agra.
When you travel with me, you’re signing up for more than just a wildlife tour—you’re stepping into an immersive journey where every detail is thoughtfully curated and every moment is designed to inspire.
From coordinating safari jeeps and managing logistics seamlessly in the background, to actively tracking elusive tigers and pointing out birds you never knew existed — I’ve got the wilderness covered. But the adventure doesn’t stop there.
The Indispensable Role of a Safari Naturalist/ Tour Co-ordinatorBefore you commit, check which tour fits your interest and schedule.

Early planning ensures you get the dates and itinerary you want without last-minute stress.

The Indian jungles offer far more than just the majestic Royal Bengal Tiger. I firmly believe in exploring the wilderness beyond tigers, appreciating the full spectrum of wildlife these ecosystems sustain. Our focus extends to a variety of other predators and prey species. Additionally, these forests are rich in birdlife, hosting both resident and migratory species, including several impressive birds of prey. Following our often encounters a diverse range of wildlife, with numerous sightings recorded throughout our tours.
When you sign up for a tour with Harsh, you’re not just heading into the wild – you’re stepping into a focused, hands-on photography learning experience.
Alongside unforgettable wildlife encounters, the tour includes-
Photography Fundamentals: Understand the basics of photography and learn how to take control of your camera beyond Auto Mode.
Image Processing: Get introduced to essential post-processing techniques to bring out the best in your photos.
Monochrome Masterclass: Learn how to convert your images into striking black-and-white frames with depth and drama.
Mobile Photography and Video: Master the art of shooting and editing high-quality photos and videos using your smartphone, practical, powerful, and pro-level.
These sessions are exclusive to tours led by Harsh and designed to help you grow as a visual storyteller, whether you’re carrying a DSLR or a phone. It’s a chance to grow as a photographer in the heart of the wild
If you’re new to photography or still finding your rhythm with the camera, this is where it all starts. During the tour, we don’t just go on safaris, we also slow down, observe, and learn. Whether you’re holding a DSLR for the first time or you’ve been dabbling for a while, we’ll walk you through the essential tools and settings that help you take full control of your camera.
Note: This photography session is available exclusively on tours led by Harsh. If your tour is guided by one of our other tour directors, this session will not be part of the itinerary.
Click a shot that stops you in your tracks. Then sit with it—review the frame, the mood, the light. Tweak the tones, bring out the details, make it sing. Share it with your friends and family, and watch their faces light up. That reaction? That’s what makes it worth it. And as you go, start picking your favorites images that deserve more than a screen. The ones you’d proudly print for a coffee table book or hang on your wall. Moments that last.
Note: This photography session is available exclusively on tours led by Harsh. If your tour is guided by one of our other tour directors, this session will not be part of the itinerary.
Black and white photography strips away the noise of colour and brings focus to light, form, and emotion. But to make a black and white image work, you need more than a simple desaturation. That’s where Silver Efex Pro stands out—it’s designed specifically for black and white editing, giving photographers powerful tools to shape tone, contrast, texture, and mood with precision.
Note: These monochrome sessions are available exclusively on tours led by Harsh. If your tour is guided by one of our other tour directors, this session will not be part of the itinerary.
Join us in the heart of nature and capture unforgettable moments. With expert guidance and limited spots, this is your chance to experience the wild like never before.
Hurry – only a few seats left!
If you’re travelling with us, we like to spoil you a little. Every guest on our mentored tours receives a set of useful freebies a high-quality insulated bottle that keeps your water hot or cold, a small pack of dry fruits, a cap, and a stylish buff to handle the dust on safari.

You’ll also get our pocket brochures featuring the popular birds and animals you’re likely to see, a bird checklist to track your sightings, and personalised bag tags to round it off.
These sightings are real moments from our escorted wildlife tours, recorded as they happened in the field. No staged encounters, no guarantees just time, patience, and being in the right place with the right team.

We update this space regularly, tour by tour, so you can follow the rhythm of the jungle as it unfolds season after season.

Safari vehicles play a pivotal role in capturing great photographs during jungle safaris. In India, the Maruti Gypsy 4×4 is commonly used for this purpose. These vehicles are designed with three rows of seats, accommodating up to eight passengers. Their open structure and elevated seating arrangement offer excellent visibility, enabling photographers to get clear, unobstructed shots of wildlife and landscapes. The 4×4 capability ensures that the vehicles can navigate through diverse and challenging terrains, bringing photographers closer to nature’s wonders. The front row is reserved for the park driver and park guide or naturalist. The center and back seats are occupied by guests or photographers.
We provide seating just two passengers per row for best comfort and convenience. This layout gives your gadgets more room and freedom to move about, so improving your photography experience. This arrangement guarantees enough room and flexibility for capturing the ideal view of the surroundings’ wildlife and landscape.
These pictures help you to get an impression of your safari vehicles:
Below we have addressed many of the questions and concerns you may have.
A Tour is a big investment. It is important that you match your expectations. Our tours, for now, are confined to Asia only. India has more than a hundred national parks, covering over 15,600 square miles of protected land. Many of the country’s wildlife sanctuaries once were hunting reserves of the maharajas, and more than 50 have been designated as tiger reserves. This wildlife tour is designed to focus on the wildlife but you will also experience some of India’s cultural marvels.
This tour is a wildlife tour with a touch of culture and photography. So nature and wildlife lovers want to see the iconic Royal Bengal tiger—India’s national animal—the top attraction for safari-goers, as well as India’s unique wildlife and varied exotic fauna. Visiting three of India’s top wildlife national parks with a high-density tiger population will increase your chances of photographing the royal majestic tiger.
This price is all-inclusive. You don’t have to pay for anything, except for personal expenses like shopping, laundry, and tips for porters, waiters, drivers, tour guides, etc.
You need to arrive in India on Day 1. Anytime after 14:00 hrs, you can check in at the hotel. Usually,
rooms are available after 14:00 hrs. Sometimes it can be very confusing flying in and out of India

Yes, you can arrive 1 or 2 days prior. We can take care of all the extra accommodation on payment
basis. Also you can add a pre or post extension to this tour. You can visit Delhi, Jaipur and other cities of
Rajasthan. You can add a week to relax in Kerala as well.
Yes I do (Harsh) because I am a passionate photographer and it is second nature for me to
instinctively have my camera in hand, but my first priority is to be available to you as a resource. The
areas we are visiting are already well scouted by us. We have spent quality time doing our research.
That’s why I don’t need a camera for my personal work. My camera is usually the last up and the first
down. When I am looking through my camera, I will be seeing things as a professional photographer.
The purpose will be just to check that we are at the right position or need to re-position the vehicle or
background is not distracting.
The best time to visit India for a tiger safari tour is from October to March. It gets really cold in the early morning in the months of November – March, so extra layers are advisable. April to June is the summer season. The probability of rain is almost negligible to very low rain with 7-8 hours of sunshine each day.

vegetables and are a delight to your senses. Fresh, Simple, Locally grown, and Seasonal foods will be
served as per the taste buds of foreign (western) tourists. During safaris, packed breakfast will be
served. In Agra and Delhi, we will take our meals in well-appointed multi-cuisine restaurants. Our
coaches and safari vehicles will be well-stocked with water bottles and snacks. Contact us if you have
any dietary needs or restrictions.
