Key Tips For Tadoba Visitors

• Guide/Tiger Tracker 

If you go by yourself without a good tiger tracker, then you can end up spending more time wandering in the jungle than actually enjoying the true purpose of your safari. Generally, when you get the safari vehicle, you have the guide that is allocated by the forest department or hotel that you have booked but touring around with someone at random will not support your purpose.

There are a lot of trackers who will be promising you for a good tiger sighting. Here we would like to suggest that – trackers who are well experienced – over a decade in the same area will know a lot more than just a newbie that is recruited by the forest department. A lot of guides just have a tendency to drive around the park halting here and there for a bit, with no judgment or any information about where the tigers were sighted before.

• Pick your tour operator wisely

In recent years, many tour operators have emerged in the market that are providing wildlife trips. There are many con operators in the market that you should not fall for.  Checking the operator’s website is the easiest way to assess its credentials but sometimes you don’t get to know about the operator just by looking at their website.

• Book multiple Jungle Safaris

If you are really determined to spot tigers in the wild, then you need to take some extra steps for it. There are chances that you can spot many tigers during one safari while in your next safari, you see only a few or nothing. Please remember that you are visiting the forest not a zoo; tigers will not appear just because you have paid for the safari. Plan a minimum of two safaris or more at a stretch as it increases the chances of spotting tigers in the wild.
