Tadoba National Park is a must-visit wildlife destination in Maharashtra. Located in the Chandrapur district, Tadoba is home to various species of flora, fauna and avifauna. Wildlife explorers and photographers find Tadoba National Park an enthralling location. The national park had primarily gained prominence due to the notable count of Bengal tigers. Tiger sighting is the central attraction of the Tadoba wildlife safari. Wildlife enthusiasts need to pre-book online jeep safaris to secure their safari in advance. Cater safari is also available in Tadoba, but it is only limited to Moharli and Kolara zones. Additionally, they are not available for online booking and are not very suitable for photographers. There are multiple safari zones in Tadoba. The core zones are popular for frequent wildlife sightings. However, the buffer zones, too, have significant sightings. Tiger spotting depends completely on the matter of luck, whether tourists choose their safari in a core or a buffer zone. While conducting Tadoba online safari booking, it is crucial to know about the zones and their respective entry gates.
