Tour Profile
It is believed that there are two kinds of tourists – tiger tourists and other wildlife tourists. According to the common belief Bandhavgarh National Park has the distinction of having satiated both kinds of tourists over the years. It is not only sighting these majestic animals in the park, but its natural and archaeological splendor – something unexpected and beyond imagination - that attracts thousands of wildlife lovers to this park every year. Bandhavgarh National Park, one the most popular national parks in India is located in the Vindhya Hills of the Umaria district of Madhya Pradesh. Declared as a National Park in 1968, this Park is spread across 105 kms. The area of Bandhavgarh is blessed with large biodiversity, and therefore, an appropriate place for the highest density of tiger population in India. Similarly, the park also holds the largest breeding population of leopards and various species of deer and other animals including the Indian Gaur. Continuing our journey further, we end this tour with our visit to one of the Seven Wonders of the World - The Taj Mahal, in Agra.
