Kabini trip from Bangalore

About Kabini

Kabini is built around the backwaters of the Kabini river and the forests of Nagarhole. Days are usually structured around morning and evening safaris, with rest in between at jungle-style stays by the water.

Safari slots and rules are set by the forest authorities and are usually arranged through the stay, so we confirm the safari arrangements as part of your quote.

Things to do in Kabini

• Jeep and boat safaris in the Nagarhole and Kabini area
• Birdwatching along the backwaters

Who Kabini suits

Wildlife and photography enthusiasts, couples and families with children old enough for safaris.

Getting to Kabini from Bengaluru
