Experience the wilderness of Kanha National Park, one of India’s finest tiger reserves, by booking your safari online with us. We offer a simple, secure, and hassle-free safari booking service for all safari zones of Kanha Tiger Reserve.
Kanha National Park is divided into eight safari zones:
- Kanha
- Kisli

- Sarhi
- Khatia
- Khapa
- Sijora
- Phen
Each zone offers a unique wildlife experience with excellent opportunities to spot tigers, leopards, barasingha, wild dogs, deer, and a wide variety of birds.
Since safari permits are issued in limited numbers and are allotted on a first-come, first-served basis, advance booking is highly recommended.
Recommended Booking Period
- Indian Visitors: Book at least 30 days before your travel date.
- International Visitors: Book 90–120 days in advance to secure your preferred safari zone and timing.
Our experienced team assists you throughout the booking process, making your Kanha safari planning quick and stress-free.
Jeep Safari During the Monsoon Season
Kanha National Park remains one of the most beautiful wildlife destinations during the monsoon. While the core zones remain closed during the rainy season, visitors can still enjoy jeep safaris in the designated buffer zones, including:
- Khatia
- Khapa
- Sijora
- Rukhad
The monsoon transforms the forest into a lush green paradise with fresh landscapes, active wildlife, and fewer tourists, creating a peaceful safari experience.
All safaris are conducted under the supervision of the Forest Department, and visitor safety remains the highest priority. In case of heavy rainfall or operational changes, visitors are informed immediately.
If you prefer a quieter safari surrounded by vibrant greenery, the Kanha Monsoon Safari is an excellent choice.
