India, officially the Republic of India located in South Asia is home of the Taj Mahal and the Bengal tiger a country of culture, history and beauty.
For the Photo Enthusiast: Ever harder to spot, the Bengal tiger hides in northern India at the foot of the Himalayas. The regal beast’s population has stabilized in Bandhavgarh, formerly the Maharaja’s personal hunting grounds and now a national park. Targeting is limited to aiming one’s lens and click–bagging a photo as a trophy.
Commanding yet balletic, richly coated and magnificently striped, with luminous, calculating eyes and Richter-level jolts of strength, the Bengal tiger simply won’t move off the “must see” list of photographers, whether amateur or professional.
And so, everyone wants three things when traveling to see him. One, a very high quality guide who will find the right locations to increase your chances of spotting the elusive beast” two, perfect comfort and convenience way out there, so far from home; and three, as long as one has come so fare, a chance to see a bit of surrounding India.
We have the perfect “Jungle Odyssey” from Delhi to Rathambore (for game drives by Jeep); Bharatpur (excellent bird watching); Agra (Taj Mahal); Khajuraho (temples rich in Kama Sutra carvings–holy to Easterners, naughty to Westerners); Bandhavgarh (home of the tiger); and back to Delhi. It’s culture and nature in undiluted. Call the experts at James TravelPOINTS for more details 1-800-274-0436, www.travelpoints.com.
