Day 2:                         Delhi Sightseeing (full day)
In the morning, our sightseeing begins. We will visit the walled city of Old Delhi, where every street is buzzing with activity. The influence of the Mughals, who once ruled from the ramparts of the Red Fort, can be seen extensively.

First, we will visit Jama Masjid – the largest mosque in India, built in the 17th century. Later, we will drive past the New Delhi Area to visit Raj Ghat, India Gate, RashtrapatiBhawan (Presidential Palace), the Parliament House, and other colonial buildings. The early 20th-century work of Edwin Lutyens, a British architect, prominently features in the colonial districts.

Finally, visit the famous QutubMinar and Humayun’s Tomb, a marvellous example of Persian-inspired Mughal architecture. Return to Hotel for overnight.

 

Day 03:                       Delhi – Corbett National Park

Morning: Breakfast at hotel. Later, drive down to Corbett National Park and check in to the Resort. Overnight at Resort.

 

Day 04:                       Corbett National Park

Morning depart for Dhikala Forest Rest House. Enter the Dhangarhi gate of Corbett National Park, and your safari of about 30kms, through the forest starts now. En route you will see Sultan, Gairal, Sarpdulli, and Khinanauli Forest rest Houses. Be prepared with your camera as you can encounter practically anything and everything that resides in Corbett. Alne tusker is usually a common sight on this road to Dhikala, and more often than not even Tigers are seen sitting, or crossing this road when you start getting closer to Dhikala. The driver and the guides will start sharing their stories, and sightings, and simultaneously showing you the varied bird and mammal life of Corbett. Reach Dhikala, check in, breakfast, and relax. Walk around the campus, and you will find a peaceful corner in front of the dining area overlooking the Ramgangariver, and the foothills of Himalayas. Post lunch proceed for the afternoon game drive. The famous Sambar road is the beginning of the safari more often than not. It is common to see some big herd of Elephants taking mud baths in the grasslands here. Return to the Dhikalachaur by late afternoon, and you will start seeing some herds of Elephants slowly making their way towards Ramgangariver to quench their thirst, and spend some quality time with their herd in water. As the sun comes down to set in the Ramganga reservoir, the colorful sky will grip your mind, but please keep the ears open as the alarm calls indicating the presence or movement of Tigers usually begins at this time. return to Dhikala for an evening film show on wildlife, followed by dinner, a small stroll on the platform in front to see the night sky, hear some Tiger roaring or alarm calls which is not unusual at this time

Overnight at Resort.

 

Day 05:                       Corbett National Park

Gear up for an enthralling day, as your day begins with an Elephant safari. The big pachyderms take you to the areas which are unsurpassable by the vehicles, the water holes in the interiors. They are also able to track the alarm calls and the Tigers too quite successfully. It is a unique experience to be atop an elephant. Come back to the base camp, and begin your Jeep safari. This time the driver will cross the Ramgangariver on a very beautiful wooden bridge to take you to the other side which is less disturbed by tourists. Return for breakfast by 0930hrs. After breakfast proceed to the watch tower which would be booked for you for next 3-4 hours just for you and the guide. This watch tower is next to a water hole. Your patience, and silence will be put to test, but ably rewarded, when you see various animals gradually step out of some bush, some corner to quench their thirsts. It is best to be silent while in the watch tower, thus you will benefit more. Elephant herds, and Tigers also do pay a visit to the water hole when it starts to get hot. All you need with you is a water bottle, a packet of cookies, and binoculars. Return to Dhikala for Lunch. Relax for an hour, and proceed for the afternoon sojourn with Corbett. Dinner and overnight at Resort.

 

Day 06:                       Corbett National Park – Dudhwa National Park

Morning after breakfast drive to Dudhwa National Park. On arrival, check into Resort.

 

Day 07:                       Dudhwa National Park

Dudhwa is located in the state which has extremely fertile Indo-Gangetic plains, perhaps the most fertile land in the world, and also the most densely populated region of the world. Unarguably the best forests of 'Sal' tree in the world is Dudhwa. Lot of Sal trees here are over 150 years old, and over 100 feet. And unlike, Corbett, Bandhavgarh and Tadoba which are rated as the Superstar parks; Dudhwa is an unexplored paradise. It is not a park for just a Tiger lover, or just a wildlife photographer, but if you love nature, you will enjoy Dudhwa. The bio-diversity of this park is unparalleled. Home to practically half of the world's Barasingha population, it also houses many Tigers, Wild Elephants, Rhinos, Crocodiles breeding population of Gharials, and over 450 birds.

Morning and afternoon game drive to the national park including a Elephant ride during the morning safari to see Rhino in their protected area.

 

Day 08:                       Dudhwa National Park

Morning game drive in the Sathiana range. very good for Leopards, and birds, this was a great range once for Tigers too, but gradually their population reduced due to some disturbances from the villages located on the fringe of this range. But lately the incursions from the village have been reduced, and wildlife is making a comeback. A very beautiful range, not visited by many tourists, hence you will feel as if you own this range. Good sightings of Barasinghas as well, and also wild Elephants. The rest house of Sathiana range is one of the best in the national park as far as location is concerned. We can organise your stay here as well, daily ration is provided by us, and the food is cooked by the forest guards of the rest house. A unique experiene worth every penny.

In the afternoon visit Kishanpur sanctuary located about 30kms from Dudhwa. This is located on the western side of Sharda River, hence it is not a Terai sanctuary. No Elephants in this belt, but very high density of Tigers for sure. It connects internally to PIlibhit Tiger Reserve on one side, and Kheri forest on the other. Has some untouched ranges, like Mailani, which are very picturesque. Kishanpur has a huge waterbody, called Jhadital. Even in peak of summers you will find lot of water here. A good place to sight Barasinghas, Crocoiles, and lots of species of waders and migratory birds. Around this Jhadital there are three watch towers, which you can climb, and enjoy the beautiful views around. Be as silent as possible, as you can be heard by the Tigers in the bush around the waterhole. Around Jhadital is a track which is known as ring road as it goes around the waterhole. Cruise silently on this track as this area has very high Tiger density. The herbivore population in Kishanpur is also good. Road no 17 is also an area which is frequented by Tigers. So overall be prepared for a good outing in this sanctuary. From within this sanctuary there is a road going to PIlibhit too, which is currently closed for tourism purposes. Return to your resort in Dudhwa.
Overnight at Resort in Dudhwa.
