Jaagir Lodge

Dudhwa, India

The wild side of Dudhwa

Jaagir Lodge, one of The Ultimate Travelling Camp’s properties is situated deep in the Terai in range of the forest reserves of Dudhwa, Pilibhit, Kishanpur, Katarniaghat and neighbouring Nepal.

With the multiple bordering surrounds brings the opportunity to see or photograph all sorts of nature and wildlife – perhaps deer, the elusive tiger or rare flora.

Guests can take a step back and cycle around sugarcane farms, sit in awe watching majestic elephants pass by, or take leisurely boat rides to see the gharials hunting in the shallow waters.

Cross tall grasslands, clay-rich swaps and shrub savanna, meet members of the ethnic Tharu tribe and at the end of a day’s adventure, retreat with a sunset signature beverage and interact with the resident naturalists.

Jaagir Lodge – the perfect combination of tented accommodation, nomadic lifestyle experiences and all luxuries conceivable.

Thank you for putting together the ancestral adventure of a lifetime. I cannot speak highly enough of the trip. The transfers went smoothly, the accommodation was excellent, the drivers were amazing as they manoeuvred through the traffic and every tour guide had a great deal of knowledge and information. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The contrast of poverty and riches of the country was striking, from the beggars in the street and struggles of the poor to the spectacular, impressive sights of the forts and monuments. There were so many highlights. A moment in time that will never happen again.

Exellent and wonderful, reaching way above expectations.

We wanted the opportunity to see as many wildlife parks as possible and the Classic Safari Company provided an action-packed itinerary that included six, with 11 tiger sightings and nine leopard. This was overlaid with an introduction to Jaisalmer, Jaipur and the 'real' India. Pench and Panna were the hidden gems of a really great trip, very well organised, seamless and enjoyable. As a solo traveller I felt incredibly safe at all times. I want to go back!

Mark Taylor

The trip exceeded my expectations and was the best family holiday I have ever had. Our children simply loved it and now I know more about African wildlife than they do about our own farm animals.
