Travel tips
- Carry small denominations of cash for local markets and tipping guides, as digital payments may not always be available in remote areas.
- Book your safari slots well in advance through the official government portal to secure your preferred zone for wildlife sightings.
- Respect the local culture by dressing modestly, covering your shoulders and knees when visiting the fort or local village areas.
- Drink only bottled or purified water to avoid common travel-related stomach issues during your stay.
- Keep your camera battery fully charged, as there are no charging points available during the open-jeep safari drives.
