Day 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7
Wake up call at 5 AM. Get ready for the morning safari.
Enjoy the morning safari. Manas has a wealth of wildlife and is very picturesque. Twenty species of birds (including the rare Bengal florican) and animals that figure in the highly-endangered list of IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources) red data book make these jungles their home. Migratory birds come here during winter and fly back at the onset of summer. Along the river banks, one can spot water birds such as mergansers, Brahminy ducks, and egrets. The park covers an area of 2,840 km, but its core area is 360 km. While tiger sighting is rare, you might just catch sight of the golden langur, the Asiatic buffalo, wild bison, wild dog (dhole), otter and civet. The rare red pandas are also found here but on the Bhutan side. The park has eastern Himalayan moist mixed deciduous forests. The eastern alluvial grassland also covers a major portion of the park. These grasslands are grazing grounds for many herbivores).
Manas is one of the few national parks where you can undertake full day safari. So after 4-5 hours of exploring the jungle we take a stop for lunch. Lunch would either be packed when we leave our accomodation in the morning or if we are near the out skirts of the park we have lunch at the nearyby dhabas.
After lunch we resume the safari, enjoying the cool evening breeze blowing in the forest, learn to identify different bird and mammal calls. The guides will keep on educating you about the ways of the jungle, imparting knowledge about its different denizens all the while trying to locate the big cat for you.
Around 6 p.m we come back from Safari, have snacks, freshen up and the group would have a lively discussion about the various sighting and happenings in the safari.This would be followed by a review of photographs and exchange of tips with advice if needed for improvements needed.
Have a sumptuous dinner and retire for the day.
