Journeys through Pench National Park
Signature expeditions featuring this territory.
The Apex Assemblage
The absolute definitive narrative of the Indian Tiger. Over 21 days, we traverse the entire geological spectrum of the tiger’s habitat—from the dry deciduous hills of the North to the lush Sal forests of the Highlands. This is designed for the serious student of natural history and the patient photographer.
22 Days / 21 Nights
The Mangrove & Teak Traverse
A massive 15-day traverse from the estuarine 'Water-Tigers' of the Sundarbans to the high-density teak heartland of Central India. This is a study in adaptation—observing how the Royal Bengal Tiger reigns supreme in two completely different ecosystems.
16 Days / 15 Nights
Explore the Tiger Corridors.
Every destination is a piece of a larger story. Our signature expeditions weave these parks together into a seamless narrative of the wild.
