Marathon Tiger Safaris Tours - A Grand Ride Through Four Unique Tiger Reserves

 

Tigers are often referred to as royal beasts of the jungle and are hence held in great reverence. Apart from the fact that the very idea of coming across these royal cats invokes a sense of fear and thrill, the natural grace and elegance of the tigers is also one of the major reasons behind their mysterious appeal. Sighting a tiger in its natural habitat often creates a sense of thrill and excitement in the onlookers and also makes them feel belittled by the sheer power and majesty emanating from these beasts. In view of the above facts it is not surprising that marathon tiger safaris tours are gaining great popularity amongst both nature lovers and adventure seekers.

 

This unique safari tour takes the participants on a rapid yet grand trip across four prominent tiger reserves in Central India, specifically Madhya Pradesh. These tiger reserves include, Kanha, Panna, Bandhavgarh and Peench. Each of these reserves is known for its unique ecosystem, great biodiversity and beautiful landscapes. Apart from enjoying the view of the tigers in their full jungle glory within their natural habitat, the participants of this marathon safari also get to experience the unparalled beauty of these four National Parks.

 

The safaris are conducted under the supervision of expert forest rangers, who, are well versed with the mood and behavior of these ferocious cats. In addition, various safety measures are adapted to avoid any untoward incidents and the participants are especially instructed repeatedly about avoiding any activities that might provoke the beasts. Overall, the trip proves extremely enthralling and quenches the thirst for adventure that draws people to participate in the safaris.
