Tadoba - The Jewel of Vidarbha

Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve, the “Jewel of Vidarbha,” spans 1,727 square kilometers of lush forests, meadows, and water bodies, providing a sanctuary for Bengal tigers, gaur, deer, leopards, sloth bears, and vibrant birdlife.

In November 2024, I embarked on a three-and-a-half-day safari in Tadoba, guided by renowned wildlife photographer Jayant Sharma. From our base at the Tadoba Jungle Lodge near the Moharli Gate, we explored both the Moharli Core Zone and Junona Buffer.

This blog serves to capture and preserve the essence of this adventure—the thrilling wildlife encounters, the raw beauty of nature, and a personal record of memories, insights, and the incredible experiences that made Tadoba a journey to remember.
