Indian Tiger Safari & Khajuraho Temples

Delhi to Mumbai – 15 days

Track a sweeping 15-day arc from Mughal capitals to temple towns, tiger forests and India’s west-coast skyline—paced for comfort and depth. Start in Delhi’s old lanes and grand boulevards, then Jaipur’s Amer Fort, City Palace and artisan quarters. Continue via Abhaneri’s Chand Baori and Fatehpur Sikri to Agra for Agra Fort and a golden-hour Taj view, before the Vande Bharat whisks you to Khajuraho’s Jain and Hindu masterpieces, with an optional Panna riverine safari.

Pivot to central India’s big-cat heartlands: Bandhavgarh’s meadows and fort-topped hills, then Kanha’s sal forests where barasingha herds share tiger country. Close in Mumbai with the Gateway of India, Mani Bhavan and the Art Deco sweep of Marine Drive. Travelling in a small group on scheduled departures, you’re led by Asian Geographical’s local expert guides; we sequence trains, road legs and safari permits to cut backtracking and queues, place you in well-located stays, and steer you to reputable workshops and tastings—for richer days and smoother joins.
 


Highlights

GOLDEN TRIANGLE HIGHLIGHTS: Old Delhi rickshaw lanes, Jama Masjid and Raj Ghat; Amber Fort by jeep, Hawa Mahal and City Palace; Agra Fort context with a sunset Taj view. Timings are tuned to soften crowds, with expert guidance on etiquette, photography spots and reliable tastings.

KHAJURAHO TEMPLES AND PANNA SAFARI: Western and Eastern Groups reveal superb Nagara architecture, Jain serenity and Chandela sculpture. Add an afternoon drive in Panna Tiger Reserve along the Ken River—gharial, deer and rich birdlife—linking heritage with wilderness. Clear explanations make symbolism and craft techniques easy to grasp.

BANDHAVGARH TIGER SAFARIS: Dawn and afternoon jeep drives scan meadows and bamboo for tiger, leopard and sloth bear, with alarm calls and tracks decoded by your naturalist. Learn how Bandhavgarh’s ancient hilltop fort shapes wildlife movement, and pace breaks for shade, water and photography.

KANHA NATIONAL PARK: Explore sal woodland, marshy grasslands and waterholes where barasingha herds, gaur and raptors gather; tiger and dhole are possible. Routes vary by zone to widen sightings, with lodge briefings on behaviour and ethics. Evenings are restful before the journey’s finale in coastal Mumbai.

Why Asian Geographical?

The difference with the Asian Geographical is, that each of our holidays is designed with extreme precision of a mountaineering expedition.

DAY 1

ARRIVAL IN DELHI

Land at Terminal 3, meet our representative after immigration and baggage claim, and transfer to your hotel (check-in from 14:00). Delhi is India’s capital and a gateway layered with Sultanate forts, Mughal avenues and British boulevards. Keep the rest of the day free to recover from the flight. If you arrive early, your guide can suggest a gentle neighbourhood stroll or a simple dinner nearby, and share tips on currency, local etiquette and tomorrow’s timings.

Hotel Options:
Resort

The Suryaa New Delhi

Set in New Friends Colony, South Delhi, The Suryaa New Delhi is a polished city base for guests who want comfortable logistics as well as a little downtime between sightseeing and meetings in New Delhi. The address works well for south-Delhi districts and key road links.

The hotel has 244 recently renovated rooms and suites, geared to practical comfort rather than fuss. When you’re not out exploring, there’s a swimming pool and a well-equipped fitness centre, plus a spa with massage, sauna, jacuzzi and hydrobath—ideal after a long flight or a day in traffic.

Dining is a strong suit: Ssence for all-day favourites, Sampan as a rooftop Pan-Asian address with city views, Atrium Bar & Lounge for an easy drink, and French Crust for pastries and takeaway treats. We like it as a reliable, well-rounded stop on Delhi-led itineraries.
 

Resort

DAY 2

New Delhi

Explore Old Delhi: Jama Masjid, a cycle-rickshaw through Chandni Chowk’s lanes (most shops close Sunday), a drive-past of the Red Fort, and a pause at Raj Ghat. This afternoon contrasts New Delhi’s space and symmetry—Humayun’s Tomb, Sunder Nursery’s restored Mughal gardens, and ceremonial drives past India Gate, Parliament and Rashtrapati Bhawan. Your specialist paces entries to ease queues, explains etiquette at religious sites, and builds in short refreshment stops. Return to your hotel with dinner suggestions or an optional evening walk, time-checked to avoid traffic peaks.

Meals Included: Breakfast

DAY 3

Jaipur

Drive to Jaipur (about five hours), breaking at the Heritage Transport Museum—India’s first comprehensive transport collection—where imaginative galleries track everything from vintage cars to rural juggernauts. Continue to Jaipur for check-in. The “Pink City” is famous for planned streets, artisan quarters, jewellery and textiles. After a short rest, your guide can help arrange optional experiences: a film at Raj Mandir’s Art Deco cinema or the evening aarti at Birla Temple. Expect practical tips on bargaining, dress codes and tomorrow’s timings.

Meals Included: Breakfast

Hotel Options:
Resort

Radisson City Centre, Jaipur

On M I Road near Khasa Kothi Circle, Radisson Jaipur City Centre is a convenient base for the Pink City—close to the railway, metro and bus links, and within easy reach of the old bazaars and landmark sights. It’s a practical choice for Golden Triangle-style itineraries where timing and smooth transfers matter. 

Rooms and suites are modern and comfortable, with free Wi-Fi and a calm, business-friendly feel. Between outings, there’s a rooftop pool for a late-afternoon reset, plus a gym and spa facilities (including a steam room) when you want to unwind after a day in the heat. 

Dining is a genuine plus: four on-site venues ranging from all-day Mosaic to the The Great Kabab Factory, Dragon House, and Kasbah lounge. Sightseeing days pair neatly with nearby icons such as Hawa Mahal, City Palace, Jaipur and Amber Fort.

DAY 4

Jaipur

Ride by jeep up to Amer Fort to see mirrored halls and ramparts with Aravalli views. En route, photo-stop at Hawa Mahal’s honeycomb façade. This afternoon visit City Palace—museums of textiles, arms and miniatures—and Jantar Mantar’s giant astronomical instruments, which your guide will demonstrate in simple terms. Optional extras include a Pink Tuk-Tuk spin inside the old city or a short blue-pottery workshop visit to watch glazing and motifs. Pacing is relaxed with shade, water breaks and easy walks between sights. Return to your hotel with dining suggestions.

Meals Included: Breakfast

DAY 5

Agra

Drive toward Agra, first detouring to Chand Baori at Abhaneri, one of India’s deepest, most striking stepwells. Continue to Bharatpur for a leisurely lunch at Laxmi Vilas Palace, a green 25-acre heritage haven. Later, explore Fatehpur Sikri’s red-sandstone courts—Akbar’s short-lived capital with palaces, gateways and a great mosque preserved in near-original condition. Arrive in Agra for hotel check-in. Set on the Yamuna, Agra showcases the best of Mughal architecture, crowned by the Taj Mahal. Your guide will outline tomorrow’s plan, ideal light for photographs, and reliable dinner options free from hard sell.

Meals Included: Breakfast

Hotel Options:
Resort

Grand Mercure Agra

Set on Fatehabad Road in Agra, Grand Mercure Agra is a five-star property from Accor that nods to the city’s heritage. Many rooms are positioned for Taj-facing views, and the hotel sits by a metro station, making transfers straightforward. It works well for leisure stays and efficient tour stopovers.

Rooms start at around 32 m², with junior suites offering extra space. For downtime, head to the rooftop: there’s a swimming pool and a poolside restaurant with the Taj Mahal as your backdrop. Dining is rounded out by Lattice, the all-day restaurant, plus Bello Italiano—promoted as the only Italian restaurant in town.

We favour it on our Golden Triangle-style journeys because it supports early starts and clean logistics: sunrise at the Taj, breakfast afterwards, then a calm base for an afternoon reset before your next guide-led visit. It also suits small-group arrivals and departures, with several banquet spaces for private groups.
 

Resort

DAY 6

Agra

Begin with Agra Fort, Akbar’s red-sandstone citadel where three emperors shaped audience halls and palaces; your expert guide unpacks Mughal design and court life. Pause at Sheroes Hangout for coffee and an inspiring story of resilience led by acid-attack survivors. Optional: Mehtab Bagh for a perfectly aligned riverbank view of the Taj. Late afternoon, enter the Taj Mahal for golden-hour light on marble inlay and symmetry; context covers craft guilds, pietra dura and conservation. Return to your hotel.

Meals Included: Breakfast

DAY 7

Khajuraho

Transfer to Agra station for the morning Vande Bharat; breakfast is served on board. Arrive Khajuraho, framed by the Vindhya hills, and check in. This afternoon explore the Eastern Group: serene Jain temples—Parsvanath, Adinath and Ghantai—and select Hindu shrines including Brahma and Vamana. Your specialist explains Nagara architecture, yakshi figures and why these precincts differ from the Western complex. Conclude at Hanuman or Javari for façades and gateways in soft light. Evening at leisure.

Meals Included: Breakfast

Hotel Options:
Resort

Radisson Hotel Jass Khajuraho

Radisson Hotel Jass Khajuraho is a four-star base on By Pass Road, Sevagram, combining contemporary comfort with subtle, region-inspired detailing. Its location is geared to efficient sightseeing—around 3 km from Khajuraho Airport and roughly 1 km from the UNESCO-listed Western Group of Temples, Khajuraho—so you spend more time exploring and less time in transit.

Accommodation spans 94 rooms and suites, including garden-view and pool-view categories, plus executive suites. Expect private balconies, Wi-Fi, minibar, tea/coffee facilities and satellite TV, with interiors that blend marble floors and local craft touches. Dining is straightforward and reliable at the on-site Temple Café, with drinks and light bites at Pulse Bar.

For downtime, there’s an outdoor pool, fitness centre and the Temple Spa offering international and Ayurvedic treatments. It also works well for combined culture-and-nature routing, with Panna National Park within easy driving distance, plus strong event facilities.

Khajuraho

DAY 8

Khajuraho

Tour the Western Group: Kandariya Mahadev’s soaring shikhara, Lakshmana’s refined panels, Devi Jagdambi, Vishwanath and Chitragupta—superb Nagara forms, narrative friezes and masterful stonework. After lunch, drive to Panna Tiger Reserve for an afternoon safari along the Ken River. Look for gharial, sambar, nilgai and prolific birdlife; tiger and leopard are possible. Your naturalist reads alarm calls and tracks, and explains dry-deciduous flora from tendu to mahua. Return to Khajuraho.

Meals Included: Breakfast

DAY 9

Bandhavgarh National Park

Depart by road across rural Madhya Pradesh to Bandhavgarh (approx. 6 hours). Check in and meet the lodge naturalist for a briefing on zones, gate timings and photography etiquette. Learn how Bandhavgarh’s fort and meadows shape wildlife movement, and why the park holds India’s highest tiger density. Prepare kit for cool dawns and dusty tracks; permits and ID checks are handled for you. Rest, then an optional short nature walk around the lodge if available. Dinner at leisure.

Meals Included: Lunch, Dinner

Hotel Options:
Resort

Bandhav Vilas, Bandhavgarh

Tucked into forest-edge Madhya Pradesh, Bandhav Vilas is a villa-style jungle retreat near the reserve’s safari gates—ideal for early starts and midday downtime. A green setting with a watercourse and private sit-outs keeps you close to the atmosphere of the forest.

Villas are designed for space and privacy: a bedroom plus private sit-out, dressing area, spacious bathroom, and an open-to-sky courtyard with rain shower, along with a private deck. Comfort is practical rather than flashy—air-conditioning, Wi-Fi, minibar and in-room safe—backed by a swimming pool, spa, and a multi-cuisine restaurant for easy meals between drives.

We use it on Bandhavgarh-focused tiger programmes because it supports the rhythm of the park: jeep safaris with naturalists, smooth logistics, and enough seclusion to rest or review photographs after a dawn drive. The signature aromatherapy turndown is a small touch, but welcome after a dust-filled day in the forest.
 

Resort

DAY 10

Bandhavgarh National Park

Head out at first light in open jeeps with your driver-guide and naturalist. Scan meadows and bamboo edges for tiger, watch cliff faces for langur sentinels, and listen for chital alarm calls. Return for breakfast and downtime. After lunch, a second drive explores a contrasting zone for varied habitats and sightings—leopard, sloth bear, jackal or raptors. Expect shade breaks, water top-ups and careful pacing. Dinner and overnight in Bandhavgarh.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

DAY 11

Kanha National Park

After breakfast, drive (5 hrs) through forested countryside to Kanha National Park. Check in and meet the lodge naturalist for a briefing on zones, permits and the best routes for current sightings. Kanha’s sal forests and meadows are famed for barasingha (swamp deer), as well as tiger, leopard and rich birdlife. Your guide outlines practical tips—layering for cool starts, dust covers for cameras, and respectful viewing etiquette. Unwind this afternoon with a short estate walk or simply rest by the pool. Dinner is at leisure, with tomorrow’s dawn schedule confirmed for your first game drive. Lunch, dinner and overnight in Kanha.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Hotel Options:
Resort

Chitvan Jungle Lodge, Kanha

Set close to Kanha National Park, Chitvan Jungle Lodge is a relaxed, forest-edge base designed for smooth safari logistics—especially handy for early drives. The lodge is only about 3.65 km from Mukki Gate, keeping transfers short and mornings stress-free.

Accommodation is arranged as spacious cottages and suites, grouped around nature-inspired “elements” themes, with modern comforts for a proper rest between game drives. Expect plenty of privacy, leafy sit-outs, and a calm, low-rise layout that feels integrated with the landscape rather than imposed on it.

Dining leans into freshness, drawing on the lodge’s own organic growing where possible, and days are shaped around jeep safaris plus gentle nature time when you’re not in the park. A swimming pool and spa add an easy wind-down after dusty tracks and long wildlife hours.

Kanha National Park

DAY 12

Kanha National Park

Head out at first light with your naturalist in an open jeep to scan meadows, waterholes and bamboo thickets for big cats and herds. Return for breakfast and downtime. After lunch, venture into a different zone to vary habitats and chances—barasingha in marshy grass, gaur in shaded sal, raptors riding thermals. Your specialist paces photo stops and shade breaks, and helps read pugmarks and alarm calls. Expect cool mornings, bright midday sun and dusty tracks; we supply water and neck buffs. Return before gate close, with an optional conservation talk at the lodge. Dinner and overnight in Kanha.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

DAY 13

Mumbai

Check out after an early breakfast and drive to Jabalpur Airport for your flight to Mumbai. On arrival, meet our representative for a smooth hotel transfer and assisted check-in. Mumbai’s energy contrasts nicely after days in the forest—colonial façades, Art Deco curves and seafront promenades. Keep the rest of the day easy: stretch your legs along Marine Drive, try a trusted café, or simply relax at the hotel. Your city guide is on call for dinner suggestions and to set tomorrow’s timings to avoid peak traffic and heat.

Meals Included: Breakfast

Hotel Options:
Resort

President, Mumbai

President, Mumbai - IHCL SeleQtions is an iconic five-star city hotel in upscale Cuffe Parade, a smart base for South Mumbai. Interiors lean grand and contemporary—statuario marble floors, chandeliers and often live piano—while many rooms rise above the city with sea-facing outlooks.

Accommodation is designed for practical comfort and polished service, with well-appointed rooms and suites geared to busy touring days. Dining is a real strength, anchored by three signature restaurants—Thai Pavilion, Trattoria and Konkan Café—supported by a deli-style Qmin Shop and easy drinks at Wink.

For downtime, expect a pool and a spa/fitness set-up that makes late afternoons feel restorative after Mumbai traffic. The hotel also has sophisticated banquet spaces, which suits private dinners and small-group logistics when you need everything under one roof.
 

Resort

DAY 14

Mumbai

Discover Mumbai’s stories and skyline. Visit the Prince of Wales Museum (closed Monday) for sculpture and miniatures, then Mani Bhavan—Gandhi’s Mumbai base—now a moving museum. Continue to the Gateway of India, then drive the “Queen’s Necklace” sweep of Marine Drive towards Chowpatty. Your expert guide can add a Kala Ghoda gallery, Khotachiwadi’s heritage lanes or a café pause, tuned to your interests. Expect clear pacing, short walks and photo stops in the best light. Return to your hotel with time to pack and an optional rooftop drink at sunset if you wish.

The story

The India Wildlife and Heritage Expedition was born from our deep passion for preserving Asia’s natural and cultural heritage. As we travelled through India’s diverse landscapes across the Indian sub continent, we witnessed the fragile balance between centuries-old architectural marvels, vibrant traditions, and rapidly disappearing wildlife. This inspired us to create a journey that not only showcases India’s wonders but also fosters a deeper appreciation for its conservation efforts.

From the regal tigers of Bandhavgarh to the poetic beauty of the Taj Mahal, every destination tells a compelling story of resilience and grandeur, highlighting India's unique wildlife and heritage. Through expert-led safaris, heritage walks, and immersive cultural encounters, we aim to connect travellers with the soul of India.

This expedition is more than just exploration—it’s about understanding the delicate interplay between history, nature, and responsible tourism. At Asian Geographical, we believe that travel should inspire, educate, and protect. Educating travelers about local cultures and wildlife is a crucial aspect of responsible tourism. This journey is a reflection of that vision, offering a transformative experience that leaves a lasting impact on both the traveller and the destination.


ESSENTIAL INFORMATION

JOURNEY STYLE, PACE & DAILY FLOW: This is a deliberately “high-contrast” itinerary: heritage cities and masterwork temples, then multiple tiger reserves with early starts and a rest-led rhythm. Expect a few longer road sectors (across Madhya Pradesh) and several travel transitions by train and flight, balanced by downtime built into lodge stays. Safari days are structured around park gates: dawn drives, late breakfasts, a long mid-day pause, then an afternoon drive—so the physical effort is less about distance walked and more about cumulative early mornings, heat, dust and time in open vehicles. Temple touring is paced for comfort with shade breaks.

TEMPLES, HERITAGE SITES & ETIQUETTE: Khajuraho is best appreciated slowly—stonework, iconography and narrative friezes reveal themselves with context and time. Certain rules are practical rather than “formal”: shoes off in some shrine areas, modest dress, and a respectful approach to photography, particularly around worshippers and active rituals. Site timings matter: some complexes are at their best in softer light, and midday heat can be intense on exposed stone. Your guide will steer you through what is culturally appropriate and what is simply sensible on the ground, including when to pause, when to move, and how to avoid the most congested moments.

SAFARIS: WHATS REALISTIC ACROSS PANNA, BANDHAVGARH & KANHA: These parks have different personalities. Panna is habitat-rich along the Ken River (often rewarding for birdlife and river species), while Bandhavgarh and Kanha are more classically associated with tiger country and broader mammal sightings. Tigers and leopards are always wild: sightings are never guaranteed, and the best experience comes from treating drives as habitat immersion—reading alarm calls, tracks and waterholes—rather than a single-species hunt. Zones and routes are permit-controlled; the team optimises what is controllable (timings, positioning, quiet observation) without overpromising outcomes.

COMFORT, CLIMATE & “FOREST PRACTICALS”: Expect pronounced temperature swings: cold pre-dawn starts, then strong sun by late morning. Dust is common in the dry season and can be substantial on tracks; a light scarf/buff, sunglasses, and camera protection make a noticeable difference. Vehicles are open for visibility, so wind-chill on morning drives is real; layering beats bulky clothing. In the forests, standing up for photographs is typically not permitted and silence improves sightings—both are standard park practice. Hydration and gentle pacing between drives protect energy across consecutive safari days.

ACCOMMODATION, MEALS & HOW THE DAYS FEEL: City hotels are chosen for comfort and reliability; wildlife lodges are selected for smooth safari operations (early departures, naturalist support and predictable meal timing). Lodge days are intentionally restorative: you’ll have time to shower, rest, and reset between drives rather than being “on the go” continuously. Meals in the parks are generally lodge-based for simplicity and hygiene, while city dining can be more flexible and curated to taste. If you have allergies or strict dietary needs, flag them early—remote lodge kitchens can accommodate a lot, but they work best with advance notice and clear parameters.
