Dive into Wild India

India is a favorite of ours at Dive & Africa Discovery travel for wildlife as well as culture. These programs we offer are for Wildlife Lovers that cannot get enough! India’s wildlife is subtler than Africa, you won’t always have the animals waiting for you around the corner.

However Kaziranga, Satpura and Jawai offer a great opportunity to photograph India’s megafauna, especially wild elephants, rhinos, tigers, leopards, sloth bears and hillock gibbons. The habitats in each of these parks /conservatories, are wildly different and provides a fantastic opportunity to photograph these rare species.

March is a great time for wildlife safaris, as it is spring, with great temperatures and the forests in different hues of their blooms. The migratory birds are beginning their return migration and thus it is great for birding in Satpura and Kaziranga!
