RE: Tigers of S. India - Pckts - 08-07-2018 I have read that Bandipur and Kabini are very poorly managed reserves, for one... The jeeps are enclosed so you're not able to take long lens shots from the roof which is a must, especially since those jeeps are small to begin with and for taller people like my self, standing was a nice reprieve. I have also read that the guides are late getting in, they don't go to the core area since it's far from the gate and they don't communicate well. This is a serious problem, they really need to fix these issues, S. India is such a treasure trove of Wildlife, it should be one of the most popular safari destinations in India but it's a long way from that. Has anyone else heard these issues or other issues like this? RE: Tigers of S.

I have also read that the guides are late getting in, they don't go to the core area since it's far from the gate and they don't communicate well. Both lack standardisation. With the renewed tourist boom many private tour operators companies want in & some resorts also manage their private safaris. Understandably a good portion of them are not very professional. System of on spot booking exists, which is often misused. The Forest Department safaris contain a bus safari. Never seen anyone praise it. *This image is copyright of its original author As far as i know, the jeep safari are mostly conducted by the jungle lodges (govt ones included). Mostly noisy older models, not Gypsy like Kanha. *This image is copyright of its original author Although, now-a-days newer models like Bolero are being inducted. Much superior to Gypsys, quieter too. *This image is copyright of its original author Still a long way to go. Might become one of the tourist-friendly reserves like Kanha, or turn into a ripoff-heaven like Ranthambore. Only time can tell... |
