ALISON MEES PHOTOGRAPHY
Sharing my love of the wild through small, personal photo trips
India Tigers & Culture
Small-group wildlife & culture photography trips
The forests of Bandhavgarh are alive with the call of peacocks, the rustle of deer,
and the quiet power of the Bengal tiger.
This is one of India’s best locations for tiger photography, with excellent chances to witness these magnificent cats in their natural environment.
​
The park’s landscapes of sal forest, rocky hills, and open meadows create stunning backdrops
for every encounter.
Alongside tigers, Bandhavgarh is home to leopards, sloth bears, gaur, deer, and over 250 bird species.
​
Before travelling to the forest, we spend time in Delhi, exploring the bustling streets of Old Delhi,
and visiting beautiful historic monuments.
​
A journey that blends wildlife, photography, and culture.
Experienced at a relaxed pace and with deep respect for nature.

Where We Stay
In Delhi, the journey begins with two nights at Le Meridien Hotel.
A calm base to rest after travel and explore the city’s colour and culture.
Morning and afternoon guided walks offer a taste of Old Delhi life and time for street photography.
​
In Bandhavgarh, we stay close to the park gate in comfortable mid-range accommodation
surrounded by nature.
Between safaris, relax by the pool or find a quiet shaded spot to unwind.
Meals are freshly prepared buffet-style, and dietary needs are happily catered for.
​
Warm hospitality, peaceful surroundings, and easy access to the park make this the perfect setting for both rest and photography.
Vehicles
Our safaris use exclusive open 4x4 vehicles, ideal for clear views in every direction.
​
Each vehicle carries a maximum of two or three guests, allowing space for camera gear and flexibility
to position for the best shots.
​
Every drive is accompanied by an experienced naturalist who knows the park’s routes, animal behaviour, and light conditions, helping ensure each outing delivers the best possible photographic opportunities.
