Susan Myers reports from our recent India: The North tour

A happy and healthy group enjoyed an amazing three weeks in India's northwest where we took in the deserts, woodlands, foothills, and the mountains of the Himalayas. So many highlights! Including the Taj Mahal, Sloth Bears, Ibisbills, Gharials, Mount Everest, and much more. But the undoubted highlight was a remarkable 11 Tigers (yes, eleven!) seen at Ranthambore and Corbett National Parks. Nothing short of breathtaking, and a truly memorable experience.

Queen of the Jungle! This is Arrow-head, she has just seen her three cubs cross the road and she’s checking to see if they’re safe.
