The trip

A relaxed, sightings-first safari — small group, two drives a day, and time to actually watch the forest.

This is a fixed-date group departure: the dates, your lodge, two safaris a day and your instructor are all set — ideal for solo travellers and small groups who want a great trip without the planning. Between drives there's time to rest, review photos, and swap notes over chai with your naturalist.

The route, stop by stop

Day 1

Arrive Lucknow, Transfer to Dudhwa, Evening Safari

Upon arrival at Lucknow Airport, you will be welcomed by the Beyond Wild team before beginning the scenic drive towards Dudhwa National Park.
The journey passes through the fertile plains of Uttar Pradesh before gradually giving way to forests, sugarcane fields and rural villages that mark the beginning of the Terai landscape.
After checking into your jungle resort and enjoying lunch, prepare for your first safari.
As the afternoon light softens across Dudhwa's towering grasslands and dense Sal forests, wildlife begins to emerge from the cover of the forest. Herds of deer feed in open meadows while the possibility of encountering a tiger or leopard is never far away.
Return to the resort after sunset for dinner and overnight stay.

Day 2

Exploring Dudhwa

The day begins early, when the forest is at its quietest and wildlife activity is already underway.
The next two days are dedicated to exploring one of India's most intriguing wilderness landscapes.
Each morning begins before sunrise as the mist slowly lifts from the grasslands and the forest awakens with birdsong and distant alarm calls.
Fresh pugmarks often reveal the movements of predators during the night, while Swamp Deer graze peacefully in the open marshes.
Each drive explores a different part of the reserve, where dense forests, wetlands and expansive grasslands support a remarkable variety of wildlife.
Between drives, return to the lodge to rest and enjoy a leisurely meal before heading out again later in the day.

Day 3

Exploring Dudhwa & Kishanpur

With another full day in the wilderness, there is time to explore beyond the most familiar routes and follow fresh signs of animal movement.
While tigers remain the ultimate prize, Dudhwa rewards those who appreciate the complete wilderness experience.
A Great Hornbill gliding through the forest canopy, an elephant emerging silently from the grasslands or a Fishing Eagle perched beside a wetland can be every bit as memorable.
Between safaris, return to the resort to relax before heading back into the forest during the cooler afternoon hours, when wildlife once again becomes active.
The quieter hours between safaris are best spent relaxing at the resort and absorbing the atmosphere of the surrounding wilderness.

Day 4

Final Morning Safari, Departure to Lucknow

Enjoy one final morning safari before returning to the resort for breakfast.
Whether your final memory is a tiger disappearing into the elephant grass, a herd of Barasingha grazing in the morning light or simply the peaceful beauty of Dudhwa itself, the reserve leaves a lasting impression on every visitor.
After check-out, drive back to Lucknow Airport for your onward journey.
Guests wishing to conclude the tour in Bareilly can also be assisted with private transfers at actual additional cost.
