|
India hosts amazing fauna and Allen's comprehensive safari includes the
country's three most prolific wildlife sanctuaries: Ranthambore, famous for its
tigers and forest-clad Rajput ruins; Kaziranga, where grassy jungles host herds
of wild elephants, Indian rhinos, and acrobatic gibbons; and Kanha, which is
crowded with herds of deer and an abundance of predators - leopard, dhole
(India's "wild dog"), jackal, and tiger.
Your chances of seeing tigers on this trip are excellent since this is the best
time of year for wildlife viewing. You'll also see the birds of Bharatpur, plus
the splendors of Jaipur, Agra, and the Taj Mahal.
