Tiger watching is a thrilling experience many people enjoy. But there are a few things to keep in mind before you plan your trip.
Watching an animal in their
natural habitat is an experience you should try and explore at least once in your lifetime. Here are some useful tips for tiger watching in India.
Choose the right location
You can also spot tigers in many destinations like China, Siberia, Indonesia, Bangladesh, and Nepal. However, India is one of the most popular places to see tigers. While safari operators cannot guarantee tiger sightings, there are a few ways to maximize your chances. Make sure to choose the best park. Bandhavgarh, Ranthambore, Kanha, Pench, Satpura, and Corbett are some of the best national parks where you just might spot a tiger.
Pick the right time for your trip
It is important to take your trip at the right time of the year. During the months between November and January, tigers are more active as the weather is cooler. Meanwhile, they may not be wandering around so much during the monsoon. Do a little research to find out which is the best month to spot them in various national parks.
Choose the best vehicle
Make sure to book a vehicle that is suitable for the conditions you will be in while you are searching for tigers, especially if you are not going on this trip with a tour guide. A gypsy jeep or larger canter trucks are popular vehicles for these kinds of trips. The most important thing to remember is to be safe and practical.
Put the camera
In this digital age, we are so used to taking a picture of almost everything we do, from the cafe where we are enjoying our coffee to our outfit for the day. While this trip will surely be a memorable one, it will be even better if you take this time to enjoy the moment.
Explore everything your trip has to offer
You have travelled so far to get a closer look at tigers. Hours can go by before you spot a tiger if you are lucky. However, there is plenty more to see around you. These national parks are also home to wild cats, leopards, sloth bears, wolves, and jackals. You can also spot beautiful birds, especially when the season is warm.
