DAY 01
Arrive and find your rhythm
Meet at the agreed arrival point, travel to the first forest and settle in. Prepare equipment and discuss photographic priorities. A first wildlife session depends on arrival and the confirmed programme.
03 / PRIVATE BESPOKE EXPEDITIONS
Your time.
Your wild.
Build a journey around your forests, pace and photographic interests. Choose below to see a live preview, then add your details and contact Chetan for a personal proposal. One to five guests plus Chetan, from six nights.
AN EXAMPLE TO INSPIRE YOU
Begin with
a possibility.
The seven-day journey below illustrates a six-night Bandipur and Kabini route. It is a starting point, not a fixed departure or an included promise. A longer journey can add time in either forest or a considered Bhadra chapter.
THE JOURNEY, OPEN TO EXPLORE
7 days.
Room to observe.
An illustrative six-night route, ready to be reshaped around you. Every day is shown below. Transfer-day outings depend on travel time, park rules and the confirmed operating programme.

Bandipur.
Dry woodland, grassy openings and denser forest give Bandipur a changing visual rhythm. A broad elephant portrait and a small detail in the undergrowth can belong to the same morning. The reserve forms part of the connected southern landscape that large mammals depend on.
DAY 02
First forest · observe
Morning and afternoon scheduled wildlife sessions. Work on light, composition and the behaviour actually encountered. Leave time between outings for rest and conversation.
DAY 03
First forest · return with intent
Return to the landscape with ideas from the previous day. Selected image review helps shape the next session.
CHAPTER 02 · DAYS 4–7
Kabini / Nagarahole.
Kabini opens into the Nagarahole landscape, where wooded habitat and water create very different ways to frame wildlife. Its connection with neighbouring forests matters as much as a single sighting: this is habitat used by both large herbivores and predators.
DAY 04
A second forest, if your route includes one
A final session may fit before transferring to the next base. The route, travel time and any afternoon outing are agreed in the personal itinerary.
DAY 05
Second forest · explore its character
Scheduled field sessions introduce a different habitat and visual rhythm. Guidance follows your interests, equipment and experience.
DAY 06
Make room for your own story
A further day gives time to develop photographic ideas, review the sequence of images and prepare for a final outing.
DAY 07
A final morning and departure
A last scheduled session, breakfast and departure according to the agreed plan. Any post-trip support is specified in the personal proposal.
