Wild Tigers Safari

Mar 22-Apr 4, 2027 - 14 Days - 2 Spots Left!!

Join us in India during the prime season for Bengal tiger activity. With temperatures still moderate, tigers are on the move—roaming, hunting, and interacting—giving you the best opportunities to capture unforgettable images. We’ve secured 6 full-day and 2 half-day safaris in Tadoba and Kanha National Parks. Full-day permits allow early entry, flexible zone selection, and the ability to stay out from dawn to dusk—dramatically increasing your chances of extraordinary encounters. Then, we’ll head to either Jawai or Pench National Parks for 3.5 days of wildlife-rich exploration, with strong chances to photograph Bengal tigers, Indian leopards, bison, wild dogs, and more. With only two participants per jeep, you'll have plenty of space and the freedom to shoot from both sides. This 14-day, all-inclusive adventure is led by world-renowned tiger photographer Nitish Madan—don’t miss your chance to learn from the best and come home with portfolio-worthy images.
