Trip Highlights

4 . In July, my friend and I took a camping trip. We travelled for four weeks and visited the United States and part of Canada. We decided to camp because it took less money than living in hotels.

We planned very carefully. First, the car we were going to drive was very small, so we decided to take only one small bag each and as few camping things as possible. We took some medicine with us, to prevent (预防) insects and also food for picnics. Second, there was a lot to see in the United States and Canada, so we had to decide on the direction we wanted to drive on a big map.

All of this planning took a long time. The date we started was July 2.We saw and did many things on our camping tour. We climbed in the mountains, visited famous caves, and swam in cool mountain rivers. We visited many cities and talked to many people. We went to a hotel room when it rained at night. We had an exciting trip.

Mughal treasures, including the Red Fort and Jama Masjid, are added by more recent additions (添加物) to Delhi’ s traditional buildings, such as the Lotus and Akshardham Temples.

Take the early morning flight to Nagpur. On arrival into Nagpur, you will be met by our local guide, who will take you to Tadoba National Park. Part of the park contains Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve (保护区), one of India’s most exciting and best-protected tiger reserves.

For the next 4 nights, you will be staying at Bamboo Forest Safari Lodge. Later this evening there will be a welcome dinner.

Days 3-5 : Safari Drives

The next three clays will follow a similar schedule, as you head into Tadoba National Park searching for India’s tigers as well as the park’ s many other wildlife species and birdlife.

The day starts early, usually before sunrise, as this is when the wildlife is at its most active. Mornings begin with tea in bed. Breakfast will normally be taken in the park.

Day 6 : Departure

Go to Nagpur airport for your flight back to Delhi and your journey home. We can make extra days sightseeing with a private guide covering the Golden Triangle of Delhi, Jaipur and Agra, including the Amber Fort and The Taj Mahal. Please ask for more details.
