A half-day safari in this park offers visitors the opportunity to witness these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat, as well as a variety of other wildlife such as Leopard, deer, buffalo, monkeys, and various species of birds. The safari typically lasts for about 4 hours include pickup and Drop-off, with experienced guides taking visitors on a thrilling ride through the park's rugged terrain in vehicles.
