Book an affordable outstation cab from Nagpur to Tadoba Tiger Reserve. AC cars, experienced drivers who know every safari gate, and fixed transparent fares.
One of India's oldest and largest national parks, Tadoba is a wildlife paradise just 3 hours from Nagpur
Locals still call it "Tadoba," after Taru — the forest deity with a small shrine near the main gate. The Andhari river cuts through 625 sq km of teak forest, bamboo thickets and open grassland in Chandrapur district, and it's one of the oldest reserves under India's Project Tiger program.
No other major tiger reserve sits this close to a metro city, which is what makes it such an easy weekend trip from Nagpur. Leopards, sloth bears, gaur and wild dogs share the forest with the tigers, so even a quiet safari rarely goes home empty-handed.
Book Your Safari Trip →Tadoba is open October 15 to June 30. Here's how each season compares for your Nagpur to Tadoba trip
Cool mornings, clear skies, and easy safari rides. Great for first-time visitors and families, though tiger sightings are moderate as water is still plentiful across the forest.
The top pick for wildlife photographers. Thinning vegetation and animals gathering near waterholes make this the peak season for spotting tigers — book your cab 2-3 days ahead.
Tadoba shuts for the monsoon due to heavy rain and slippery trails. Plan your trip for after October 15, when the park reopens for the new safari season.
Two daily safari shifts: Morning 6:00–9:30 AM | Evening 3:00–6:30 PM. Weekends and December–March fill up fast — call 8554969582 to lock in your cab.

A few things that make the difference between an average trip and a great one
Book your safari permit online in advance — gates like Kolara and Mohurli sell out fast on weekends.
Leave Nagpur by 3:00–3:30 AM for a morning safari, or by early afternoon for the evening shift.
Carry a valid photo ID — it's required at the safari gate along with your permit.
Pack light neutral-coloured clothing, a cap, and a light jacket for cool early mornings.
A 300mm+ zoom lens or a good pair of binoculars makes a big difference on safari.
Consider an overnight stay near the park to fit in both a morning and evening safari.
