ELEPHANT SAFARI
Duration: 4 Nights / 5 Days
Nature and wildlife have formed an integral part
of the Indian consciousness. Animals are a critical
part of India's myths, legend and religious belief.
The best way to explore and experience the majestic
Himalayan foothills is undoubtedly on foot or on
elephant. This stretch features fascinating deciduous
forests and the Savannah vegetation of tall grassy
meadows and marshes, across gushing streams and
mountain villages. The avifauna here is wide - ranging
and varied and so are the inhabitants of these great
forests. The accompanying Jeep and the tended camps
give you the flexibility to choose your transportation
mode. An odyssey in itself, this simple yet intense
experience combines an undisturbed sojourn in picture-postcard
countryside.
