India’s identity is made more distinct by an astonishing range of biodiversity. Its natural ecosystems—from tropical rain forests and deciduous monsoon forests to the dry alpine scrub high in the Himalayas—house hundreds of Indian wildlife sanctuaries, including 27 tiger reserves. All are home to a wealth of diversity and impressive numbers of endemic species: more than 350 types of mammals, 1200 species of birds, and 6% of the world’s flowering plant species. Lumbering through the forest on elephant-back or in a 4-wheel drive, travelers will see a broad range of Indian wildlife, including tigers, families of elephants, one-horned rhinos, monkeys swinging through the forest canopy, and flamingos in flight. Our Indian wildlife tours are ideal for photographers, birders, and anyone with a love of wildlife and nature.
