Sambar Deer, Spotted Deer and many others Of course, the greatest attraction is
spotting a tiger amongst the dense Woodlands and bamboo trees.
I have
booked very nice luxury hotel in tadoba.
This resort provided all luxury facility like, stay, meal, and also arranged my
jungle safari. They have their own experienced naturalist to whom they sent with
us for jungle safari. This naturalist gives all details to us while doing
safari about plants, trees and jungle animals. That’s why tadoba resorts online booking is always good option but you have to
choose resort carefully before booking resortin tadoba. You can check reviews online and ask them for their resort
pictured and clear first what facility will be provide by them.

I have booked Jharana jungle which is near navegaon gate and they have booke buffer zone safari for me. Jeep was given from them. Their food and hospitality was fantastic and resort had beautiful interior which gives you pleasant feeling of nature touch. We have done morning safari and If you get good driver and guide then sighting a tiger safari will not be a challenging task. I had very good sighting and also saw many other wild animals in jungle.
Few Tips for the visitors:
– Both Summer and winter will be extreme, so wear clothes and carry necessary items depending on the season. When we visited in the end of March, afternoon safari was sunny and hot and morning safari was cold.
– Cover your face and camera gears to protect from dust. It’s a dusty track out there in Tadoba.
– ID proof is required while booking the safari and also while entering they will verify it. So, carry original ID proof.
– If visiting in summer season cover your head with a cap or a hat and drink lots and lots of water to avoid dehydration.
– If visiting in summer season make sure to book your stay which has Air Conditioner.
– During winter carry thermal wear.
– Make sure to book your safari in advance .
– Lenses above 250 mm will be chargeable per ride. So make sure to pay the fee while booking your safari online. If caught without this, there will be legal actions.
– BSNL, Idea and Reliance 2G network were available during our visit. Jio, Vodafone and Airtel was on and off and no guarantee that you will get their network all the time.
– Enjoy the nature to the core by reducing usage of plastics and do not litter anything in the village or in the forest area.
– Avoid talking loudly while you are on safari drive.
Experts says Tadoba never disappoints, in our case it was true and a dream come true kind of experience we had here.
