This ₹25,000 tiger safari itinerary is built for a November long weekend: arrive Day 0 evening, safari on Days 1–2 (morning and afternoon), depart Day 3 after breakfast. It targets central Indian parks where permits and lodges stay within a mid-range budget.
Day 0 — Reach Nagpur (Pench/Tadoba) or Umaria (Bandhavgarh) by train or flight. Pre-book a lodge within 5–8 km of your safari gate; shared hotel jeeps to the gate save taxi costs. Dinner at the lodge; lights out early.
Day 1 — Morning and afternoon jeep safaris in the same zone if rules allow, or split across two zones in parks like Tadoba. November mornings can be cool — carry layers. Afternoon drives often produce tiger movement near water as the day warms.
Day 2 — Repeat two safaris; ask your naturalist to focus on quieter routes if your first day was crowded. Budget ₹2,000–₹3,500 per shared jeep safari all-in (varies by state and zone).
Day 3 — Optional buffer: one more morning drive if budget allows, else checkout and return train. Total near ₹22,000–₹25,000 per person sharing a twin room, excluding long-distance flights from Delhi or Mumbai.
