Frequently asked Questions

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 who 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 high density of tiger population will increase your chances to photograph the royal majestic tiger.

Beginner, amateur, enthusiast and semi-pro photographers and anyone with point and shoot or any mobile with inbuilt camera are most welcome. This wildlife tour is beyond framing the wildlife through gadgets but also to experience the thrill and adventure of Indian wildlife. Unlike a safari in Africa, where there seems to be a cat around every turn, one has to work for the tigers, which creates a deeper level of satisfaction and appreciation for a glimpse or stunning image of a tiger.

A basic knowledge of photography will be like icing on top. For wildlife photography, DSLR/ Mirror less camera with lens 200-400+ is recommended.

You need to arrive in India on or before 22 nd January, 2021. Tour briefing will be at 6:30 am in the hotel, followed by welcome dinner. So 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 because many of the flights arrived and depart around midnight. So please check the dates very carefully and make sure your dates are correct. Drop us a message before confirming your flight.

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.

We will take our meals in the resorts; the menus are designed to celebrate local ingredients and 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-cuisines 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.

The currency used in India is Indian Rupee. Though Exchange rates vary almost every day, this change is marginal.

US$1.00 = INR 68-70.

There will be plenty of options to exchange your money. The airport will be the 1st option but usually their exchange rates are low with added charges. We always advise exchanging through authorized money exchange. For any need feel free to contact your tour leaders.
