Tadoba with Hemangi was an experience to cherish. Right from choosing the right zones for safaris, and handpicking seasoned guides to regaling us with anecdotes and wisdom collected from her many wildlife adventures, Hemangi ensured we had an unforgettable trip.

Her expertise and quiet hard work behind the scenes made our forest experience smooth and enjoyable.

More power to Jungle Belles for their passion to take women into the wild!

ताडोबाला तसं मी खूप वेळा गेलीये, म्हणजे २०१३ पासून जातीये. दरवेळेस मला नवीन काहीतरी मिळतं अर्थात जंगल म्हटलं की ते ओघाने आलचं. ह्या वेळेस आम्ही २० जणं गेलो होतो. त्यातले काही पहिल्यांदा जंगलात जाणार होते. प्रमुख आकर्षण वाघ हेच होतं. पण जे कायम जातात त्यांना माहीत असेल की वाघ दिसेलच ह्याची काहीच हमी नसते. आपण वेळेला योग्य ठिकाणी असायला पाहिजे.

आमच्या २० मध्ये बरीच बच्चे कंपनी पण होती. त्यांना पण वाघच बघायचा होता. पण जश्या जश्या सफारीज होत गेल्या तसं तसं सगळ्यांना वाघाबरोबर जंगलाचं पण वेड लागलं.

आम्ही १४ वाघ, १ बिबट्या, आई अस्वल आणि पिल्लू अस्वल, २२ जंगली कुत्र्यांचा कळप आणि खूप सारे पक्षी असा भरगच्च खजिना पाहून आलो आणि अनेक आठवणी घेऊन आलो. विशेष कौतुक जंगल बेल्लेसच्या मधुलिका तिजारे ने आम्हाला खूप छान पद्धतीनी सांभाळून घेतलं.

हेमांगी वर्तक ने मला वेळोवेळी मदत केली. सफारीज चं गेट आणि आम्ही राहत होतो ते रिसॉर्ट हे तिनी अचूक निवडलं – मना’स जंगल रिसॉर्ट, कोलारा.

रिसॉर्ट फक्त सुंदरच नव्हता तर खूप चांगल्या प्रकारे देखभाल केलेला होता. जेवणाचा दर्जा तर अद्भुत होताच सोबत अमर्यादित मिठाईचा आस्वाद देखील घेता आला. खोल्या स्वच्छ होत्या आणि हॉटेल कर्मचारी खूप मदतगार होते.

Hi, my name is Richa Sule and I am from Pune. This was my first visit to Tadoba and my first ever sighting of tigers in a jungle. It was the experience of a lifetime, a tiger in its natural habitat, hardly 5 feet away. We did 5 safaris from different gates. We had amazing sightings where we saw almost 15 tigers.

At first, I was a little reluctant to go for all the safaris considering the heat, especially during the afternoon safari but the sighting of Zunabai with her cubs motivated us, and the hunger for many sightings increased with it. Plus, the weather also supported us.

We were a group of 20, and our entire trip was organized by Jungle Belles. Right from pick from the airport, our stay and bookings of the safaris, etc., everything was so very well organized that our entire trip went smoothly without any hassles. The resort was not only beautiful but very well maintained, with spacious rooms, cordial staff, and scrumptious meals with a wide variety as well.

Madhulika, our tour guide, is a very lovely, sweet girl. She coordinated everything so well and was always available to help. Sne accompanied us for all our safaris. Thanks a ton.

Jungle Belles was a wonderful experience. We would definitely love to go for more such jungle safaris. I am looking forward to more such trips with you.Thank you so much for such a lifetime. I have an amazing experience.

मला माझ्या कुटुंबाला ह्या आगळ्यावेगळ्या अशा टूरचं यशस्वीरीत्या देता आलेलं सरप्राईझ, तिथे आमच्या लग्नाचा वाढदिवस म्हणून आणलेला सरप्राईझ केक, त्यासाठी दिव्यांचं केलेलं अप्रतिम आणि साधं डेकोरेशन, ह्या सर्वांसाठी सौ. हेमांगी आणि टीमने घेतलेली मेहनत, ह्यांचं कौतुक करावं तेवढ कमीच आहे. ह्या सर्व आठवणी मनात ठेवून आणि पुढे पुन्हा असचं कधीतरी शक्य झालं तर एका नव्या जगंलाला भेट देण्याची इच्छा धरून माझ्या लेखणीला तात्परुता आराम देतो.

The talkative guides made the safaris enjoyable. We learned and understood what it means – the forest is completely silent.

Overall experience was pleasant. The stay was good. The food was sumptuous. The safaris were great too. We discovered a lot about birds, flora & fauna.

Overall happy.

Mr. Nayan Sheth
Pune (Pench Wildlife Tour)

Thank you. I wish we had an expert to take us through the forest. Anand bhau was good, of course. But this place would’ve been doubly interesting with a botanist or a tree nerd. Loved meeting Nayana tai. All arrangements were spot on. Thanks Hemangi and Madhulika!

Mrs. Renu Dhole

Madhulika and the other tribe were so enthusiastic even the driver guy was good. I am so happy.

This is my second outing & tour with Jungle Belles. As Jungles Belles arranges only ladies tour which is best part & I am very happy to be at Dandeli. Very much satified with resort & all other facilities. Overall the tour was well arranged by the JB team. The cherry on cake for this tour was that, there was an expert with us  for the photography & birding tour. Hope to do more tours with Jungle Belles in future.
