Tips, photos and travel plans you can join, all as per your interests
Not a tip but a query. I'm planning to travel to Velavadar NP later this month. Is it possible to hire a vehicle for safari at the park itself? And how much would it cost?
I'm traveling solo, so want to keep costs at a minimum. (Have posted a travel plan here but since no one's joining so far, might probably end up going alone only)
Aditya Vaidya I think you should take your own car or make arrangements in advance. If you stay in the luxury lodge then they have their vehicles otherwise I have only gone with one of us having our own car

Velvadar-Gir-Nal Sarovar Road trip
Were planing a road trip starting from Mumbai ,heading first to Velvadar spendinga day there looking for Wolves,Hyenas,Lesser Floricans,Saras cranes and offcourse Blackbucks. From here we will head to Gir ,going on 4 Safari rounds looking for Lions and hopefully leopards.The final plan is to try birding in Nal sarovar for a couple of hours which falls on our way back to Mumbai
'..and how exactly did I end up here!' said the leopardess Juliet after a crazy night out. Luckily for Neelu, the female Neelgai, she had less things to worry about with her staying there.
Crazy life of a leopardess(she's a fantastic climber by the way)

Shabnam Siddiqui Super.
Jitendra Singh Did you book the safari online (by self) or through agents/middlemen?
Ashley It was through someone but one can book it online too
Raj Srivastava I would suggest to check out offline, online have loopholes and in fact a tough call. Check with local gypsy owner, I did approx 22 safaris with Rohit, the local gypsy owner.....trustworthy, honest, not a looter.
Gaurav Sinha Awesome portrait
Tanmay Keshav Superb
