About Dihing Patkai Wildlife Sanctuary
The Dihing-patkai Wildlife Sanctuary is part of a large tract of elephant corridor of Northern Assam and Arunachal Pradesh. These are the only rainforests of Assam and are rich in biodiversity and very productive for birdwatchers with beautiful and rare species alike.
Unfortunately, where there is prosperity for wildlife, there has historically been scope for human prosperity as the old Digboi Oilfields are part of this landscape as are the famous tea gardens of Assam. The silence of the dense rainforest broken by the occasional blast sounds of the refineries.
We focus on the birds here and there are various species in these beautiful forests.

He was definitely a highlight of our trip, as a great guide makes for a great experience, whether you see tigers or not! And we did see tigers...
Nature Safari India organized our private 2 Weeks Safari in Central India plus a couple of Sightseeing and we are very happy to having choose this agency. I found them on the responsible tiger tourism association (TOFTigers) and I liked them from the very first contact.
