About the Kaziranga Rhino Photography Tour

The Kaziranga tour is designed for the ultimate wildlife photography experience, opportunities to go home with amazing photographs of rhinos, water buffaloes, elephants, swamp deer, hog deer etc. If lucky you might also see the Bengal tiger (Kaziranga is said to have the highest density of tigers in India, although the habitat makes it very rare to sight).

All our tours operate at an easy pace that we believe is necessary for good wildlife watching and photography. Thus we give more time at each place, instead of hopping around from place to place. Wildlife in our experience requires time and patience.

Each tour itinerary is simple and needs minimum travel outside the forest. We spend most of the time on safari watching and photographing wildlife.

A tour with us will give you the opportunity to explore and know the place and its inhabitants.

Private guided tour

All our tours are private guided tours with a very tiny group of nature lovers. The average group size is usually 2 or 3 people.

Advantages to photographers

Beginners or Amateur Photographers can learn a lot in the field from the accompanying wildlife photographer. They also gain a lot of in the field insight and practical tips about wildlife photography and animal behavior.

Professional photographers definitely benefit from the experience of the accompanying photographer about the place and the animals. This improves the chances of a great photograph by being in right place and position.

Best time for wildlife

We enter the forest as soon as the park gates open in morning and stay as late in the evening before the park gate closes. We understand that the Best possible time to watch & photograph wildlife is early mornings and late evenings when animal activity is at its highest and the soft golden light creates great images.

Timings vary depending on the seasons and the park officials. Mornings safari usually starts as early as 7:30 a.m. and evenings end around sunset.

What to expect

9 jungle game drives during the tour will give plenty of opportunities to watch & photograph a lot of animals. One-horned Indian Rhinoceros, Indian Elephant, Water Buffalo, Swamp Deer, Bengal Tiger(rare) along with a huge variety of other animals and birds etc.
