Bandhavgarh Experience: We went to see the Bandhavgarh National Park in Madhya Pradesh after our visit to Khajuraho Temples.We spent about three days in Bandhavgarh taking four jeep safaris to visit the park to see the wild life. Safaris are in the morning, 7AM to 10 AM and in the afternoon 2 PM to 5 PM. The park is very big and there are several entrances to the park taking you to different areas of the park. The park is fabulous to say the least and there is a rich wild life of tigers, deer, cheetals, wild boars, monkeys, langoors, cranes, blue jays, neelkanths, green pigeons, kingfishers, etc. You won't be disappointed and would want to go there again and again. Additionally, the natural scenery is superb and sunrise and sunsets are a beauty to watch.

Food, sight-seeing and shopping: For most of the time we stayed in the park and the rest of the time was spent at the resort where we were staying. There was no time to look around for shopping etc. It is not the place for shopping - you go there to see the wild life and tigers in the park.

Bandhavgarh Experience: Myself and my wife went on MP tour beginning with Bandhavgarh on 28.02.2011 morning and fortunately and very quickly arranged a shared tiger safari with a British couple, Bruce and Carol Forbes and for the first time in my life we saw the real one, the wild and beautiful about 100 feet away taking dip in the pond and thereafter moving upward for taking rest for about 10 minutes. I could not believe that the tiger could be spotted after two hours of ride. I booked online my morning safari for Tala-1 on 1st March 2011. The Gypsy Driver, Tek Chand (09425344610) is middle aged having vast experience on the tiger trails and he knows to spot tiger. The jungle safari was for nearly four hours and we were about to end our safari around 0930 in the morning we came to know near Tridhara that a tiger has been spotted by the Forest officials and there were three elephants (Rs. 200/- per person for elephant ride) with mahouts helping us climb on the elephant back we had seen the beautiful animal moving and thereafter taking rest . Initially my wife did not want to go for a jungle safari. But, after seeing the real wild tiger hardly 30 feet away and unnerving roars made her so happy which I will never forget. Seeing a tiger so close will ever remain in my memory.
