The Best Tips For A Tiger Safari In India

Welgrow TravelsApril 22, 2020 0 Comments

As opposed to a luxury travel that is filled with the perks of indulgence and plenty of sightseeing of some of the most scenic destinations, a tiger safari is the one which pushes you to the limits. Nothing beats the sheer amount of adrenaline and adventurous vibes of seeing the wild cat parrying around in its own habitat. What adds to the thrill is the proximity with which the tiger is visible. It comes as no surprise that the safari travel is not meant for the faint hearted! So you had better prepare for the safari with these tips to enjoy the adventure even more:

A stroke of luck- Yes, it is true. The tiger safari can be a matter of fortune as far as spotting them is concerned. That being said, the natural reserves and parks offer the most natural habitat and lots of open spaces to the tigers. So you do have more chances to spot them. Certain parks like Kanha National Park offer better chances due to the dry deciduous forests and the frequency of jeeps visiting the park leads to the usually shy Tiger becoming acclimatized to the safari vehicles.
The best time for tiger safari- Most National Parks in India are open from October to June, and remain closed for tourists due to the monsoon rains from July through September. The scenario at National Parks in India are vary across seasons and are enjoyable in their own way:

October & November : The jungle is beautiful, dense and green. Temperatures are near perfectly pleasant.
December – February : The picturesque Winters in the Indian with golden light shimmering through the morning mist. Temperatures can fall to near 0 °C, hence one must come prepared with layers of clothes.
March – June : The dry Indian Summers make for increased chances of seeing tigers as they spend their time in or around the various water bodies of the jungle, to quench their thirst or wait discretely as other prey animals such as deer and monkeys venture here. One also has the opportunity of seeing the tiger sitting in the water, to stave off the heat which is too much for their large carnivorous selves.

Planning your safari- In India, due to limited availability of safari permits it is very important to ensure that there will be a safari permit before you confirm your safari trip to India. Ideally, one must confirm all details 4 months before travelling at the very latest. As a luxury travel operator in Gurgaon, we also lay emphasis on getting the booking permits well on time for safari travel thereby giving all our guests the best opportunity for a memorable safari travel.

Rest assured, you do not have to fret over safety as we arrange your safari with the expert guides and drivers all the way through along with accommodation in the best available lodges that are close to the nature in theme and ambience.

Fact And Myths About Millennial Travelers

Welgrow TravelsSeptember 23, 2019 0 Comments

Aha! The millennial generation! Born in between 1981 and 2001, it is one of a kind as far as the entire fabric of travelers is concerned. They are a young lot in all the luxury travels which likes to travel the maverick way. But it is the same reason for which they are labeled as self-centered, social media obsessed, obnoxious pricks! What if we tell you that there is more than it meets the eye? For us, as Luxury travel operators in Gurgaon know the major facts and myths about them. Read on to find out more.

Millennial do not like to travel with random people- Getting to travel with friends and family or even choosing to go is one thing but going with random people is another. And traveling solo has just gone easy thanks to the Luxury travel operators in Gurgaon who are customizing their travel itinerary for such travelers. Traveling budget, a teething problem in such tour is also taken care of so the millennial travelers get to travel across the world without bounds. Even the youngest of the pack in a millennial tour is at ease since he/she knows that they are here to gather perspective from people who may not be of the same age but are definitely intertwined with the same interests.

Millennial are traveling to gain social media fame (and so do others) – This is neither a myth nor a fact but we would like to take a middle ground. It does turn out to be true in many surveys across the world that the first amenity which the millennial look for in hotel or other accommodation facility is uninterrupted WiFi service. And it is for obvious reason; to post photos in their best attire and shape in the backdrop of a tourist place or an historical architecture. But that is certainly not something which should be looked with disdain. Millennial are known to be social media influencers and some of them do have an envious number of followers in their social media handles. This creates the right channel for a two-way conversation instead of a one-way information dump, a fact that we immensely respect!
Millennial are not irresponsible travelers- If they are irresponsible travelers, we wonder what category a traveler group would fall to when they travel in packs with annoyingly loud kids, a member who rushes to the buffet to bag more food than they could eat or simply a family who tries to steal hotel pleasantries that are prohibited. On the contrary, the millennial travelers have proven themselves as seekers of knowledge and better conversation makers since they are always out in the open to explore the deep roots of a culture. That is totally a different scenario when compare to a snobby family wanting transport vehicle to see places every mile or so!

To conclude, the very definition of travel is different to each person. More than the materialistic pleasures, it is a good idea to go with the flow of heart’s following and indulge in one thing you ache for. Just like the millennial do!

Welgrow TravelsAugust 20, 2019 0 Comments

Ang Thong National Marine Park, Thailand is a big country: if in some places, the rainy season in July and August is raging, there are more protected areas.

For example, the Gulf Islands (Koh Samui, Koh Tao, etc.) and the South-East coast are pleasant seaside destinations during the summer months: it sometimes rains in the evening, but the days are usually sunny. On the side of the islands of the Andaman Sea, it is not the same refrain: the weather is less lenient, and some small islands are not even accessible this season.

Bangkok can be visited in July and August. Note only that it is very hot and heavy; so, it’s quickly unbearable. To avoid choking, adapt your trip: a boat trip on the Chao Praya can be very refreshing! The Underworld Aquarium is a good tour option for escaping the heat. You can also take refuge in the big shopping centers, all very well air-conditioned!

Finally, concerning the north and east of the country, it is the peak of the wet season. Understand that it may rain a lot. However, it usually boils down to a good heavy downpour at the end of the day (plan a shelter when the rain comes because it’s very violent!).

Conclusion: to go in summer or not?

Overall, luxury destinations in Thailand can be visited all year long. By leaving in July-August, you risk having good showers and a rather heavy climate, but it will be bearable.

Welgrow TravelsJuly 12, 2019 0 Comments

Who does not like to travel? Buying tickets, packing, planning trips, and then embarking on an adventure are activities that almost everyone likes. And, unlike many other things that provide pleasure, travel not only has any contraindications but has many and varied health benefits. This has been proven by various scientific studies, as summarized below.

Less stress and greater emotional well-being

Stress reduction seems the most obvious of the benefits of traveling to luxury beach travel Destinations. Although it is a brief departure and a destination not too distant, leaving behind the routine and the frenetic pace of life in the city allows you to disconnect, leave behind the anguish and enjoy the present. But attention: the attitude is important, because there is also the so-called “holiday stress”, a state of tension caused by the preparations of the trip, the insecurities, and difficulties that this can bring, the feeling that time will not be enough to do in the destination all “what needs to be done”, etc.

The brain, grateful

Until a long time ago, it was believed that the brain, from adulthood, was no longer modified. However, science has proved that this is not the case: neurons can create new connections and even new neurons can be formed, throughout life.

A stronger and healthier heart

A study conducted in the United States determined that traveling reduces the risk of suffering myocardial infarction, especially for the elderly. Statistics indicate that men who travel frequently have a 21% lower chance of having a heart attack. Holidays can be good for your health, recommend the conclusions of this work.

Solid self-esteem

Every trip represents a sum of challenges: to move, to get used to an unknown place, to relate to its people. And the farther fate is, the greater the challenge since it involves coming into contact with exotic customs, unknown languages and, inevitably, problems of various kinds. Finding the resources to solve them and be able to get ahead promotes self-esteem as few other things can do.

Greater scope to face the problems

Going far helps to get away from the parties stressors of life can help improve your perspectives, provide new points of view, and develop new strategies to cope with problems.

When you know other realities, you take distance from your own life, and you can see your own problems in their true dimension.
