Sprawled across the Satpura foothills, Pench is a vibrant mosaic of teak forests, rolling meadows, and winding rivers that breathe life into one of Central India’s most enchanting landscapes. Celebrated for inspiring Kipling’s Jungle Book, the park today is home to thriving tiger and leopard populations, along with packs of wild dogs and an extraordinary diversity of birds. Pench’s blend of rich wildlife, scenic beauty, and peaceful, uncrowded safaris makes it a perfect choice for travellers who want the classic Central Indian jungle experience without compromising on serenity or authenticity.


Your journey to Pench begins with a comfortable morning pick-up from Nagpur, followed by a relaxed 2.5–3-hour drive through villages, fields, and the first hints of Satpura forest. Once you arrive, check into your cosy jungle lodge, sip on a welcome drink, and take a moment to settle into the quiet of the landscape. After lunch, you head out for your first afternoon safari — the perfect introduction to Pench’s mix of open meadows, tall teak, and unexpectedly rich wildlife. This is classic tiger country, but it’s also where you might spot wild dogs coursing through the grass or owls tucked deep in the canopy. You return to the lodge by early evening, unwind, have a warm dinner, and ease into the unhurried rhythm of Pench’s nights.

Start your day early with a gentle wake-up call and a hot cup of tea or coffee before you set out for your morning safari. As the first light filters through the teak forests, Pench really comes alive — deer herds moving through the meadows, birds calling from every direction, and the possibility of a tiger or wild dog pack on the move. After the safari, return to the lodge for a relaxed breakfast and some downtime. Following lunch, head back into the park for your afternoon drive, often in a different zone, giving you a fresh landscape and new chances for wildlife sightings. By evening, settle in at the lodge, swap stories from the day, and unwind before calling it a night in the calm of the jungle.

Wake up early for one last morning safari (optional), a final opportunity to absorb Pench’s calm forests and catch any wildlife you may have missed. After the drive, return to the lodge for breakfast and a bit of relaxation before you check out. Then begin your journey back to Nagpur, wrapping up your Pench adventure with a head full of sightings, quiet moments in the forest, and memories you’ll be talking about long after the trip ends.

Pench stretches across both Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra, giving travellers access to multiple gates, varied landscapes, and wider wildlife movement.
This is the forest that inspired Kipling, and you feel it instantly in the mix of deep teak, open meadows, and rivers cutting through the landscape.
Pench’s tiger and leopard population is healthy, well-distributed, and active across zones, making sightings genuinely rewarding rather than rare strokes of luck. The blend of open meadows and forest patches gives you long viewing corridors where big cats often patrol, hunt, or rest.
Few parks offer such a high chance of seeing the melanistic leopard aka 'The Black Panther' in action — one of Pench’s signature experiences.
Spread-out zones and multiple entry points mean quieter routes, better sightings, and far less congestion than the bigger parks.
Easy access from Nagpur, great lodges, and diverse habitats make Pench both beginner-friendly and endlessly rewarding for repeat visitors.

With more than 14 years of organising safaris in Pench, we know the park zone by zone — from the classic MP gates to the quieter Maharashtra side. We’ve tracked tigers, wild dogs, and leopards here across countless seasons, refining routes and timings to give our guests the best possible sightings. When it comes to Pench, we don’t just plan safaris — we understand how the forest behaves.
We partner with some of the most experienced local guides in Pench — people who know every bend in the forest, every meadow where prey gathers, and every territory line big cats prefer. Their tracking skills and birding knowledge add a layer of insight that turns each safari into a richer, more informed experience.


One thing is certain — Pench leaves an imprint like few other parks. It’s one of the most distinctive forests in Central India, and you’ll return with memories that stay long after the trip ends.

EXCELLENT Based on 134 reviews Posted on Pratik ShahdadpuriTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wonderful experience. RecommendPosted on disha kunderTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our Kenya trip was nothing short of magical, and a huge part of that credit goes to Nikita. From the very beginning, everything was planned so thoughtfully every detail, every stay, every experience felt perfectly curated for us. The properties we stayed at were absolutely stunning, blending luxury with nature so beautifully. Waking up to breathtaking views and ending the day with serene sunsets. The itinerary was seamless and incredibly well-paced. We got to experience the best of Kenya without ever feeling rushed, everything was balanced just right. It’s rare to find a trip where you don’t have to worry about a single thing, and this was exactly that. Nikita made the entire journey stress free and special, always ensuring we were comfortable and making the most of every moment. Her attention to detail and understanding of what makes a trip memorable really stood out. If you’re planning a getaway that’s equal parts luxurious, adventurous, and unforgettable Safari Labs is the way to go!Posted on Vedanti AwateTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you so much, Safari Lab, for such a well-organized trip! Everything was perfectly managed from start to finish. The service was excellent, and a special thanks to Prashant for always being available for pickup and drop whenever needed. The hotel was also fantastic and very comfortable. We had an amazing experience at Pench. Looking forward to planning our next trip to Tadoba with Safari Lab. Thanks again for the smooth booking and wonderful arrangements!Posted on Piyush PathariTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I travelled to Kenya with my brother and father for 8 days with *Safari Lab*. It was really a very nice experience for our family. Special thanks to *Nikita* who helped us plan the whole trip. She suggested lodges which were not very expensive but still very nice and luxurious. During the trip also she used to message and check almost every day in the evening asking if everything is fine and if we are facing any problem. That personal touch was really good because when you are travelling in another country it feels reassuring that someone from India is monitoring everything. The safari itself was amazing. We saw the Big 5 including lions, elephants, rhinos, leopard, cheetah giraffes and lots of others. Our guide Gabriel was very experienced and knew exactly where to go for sightings. Food was another pleasant surprise. My father was little worried what he will eat there but many lodges had chapati and even *matki*. He was very happy seeing good Indian food and enjoyed a lot. All the lodges were beautiful and comfortable. Even the short stay we had in Nairobi before going to the airport was amazing and the hotel was very good for a quick transit stop. Overall it was a memorable trip for the three of us. Safari Lab planned everything very smoothly. I would definitely recommend them to anyone thinking of going to Kenya safari. Really great experience.Posted on Niranjana Madhavi SundaramTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What can I say, it was an absolutely fabulous, zero stress, effortless experience going with Safari Lab for our Tadoba trip. Right from the first time I spoke with Nikita, the experience was seamless - she’s prompt, kind, attentive, thoughtful, and supremely honest. The trip itself was a great one - we saw tigers in two of our safaris, the stay and good at Gondwana resort was great, and the driver who was with us for our whole trip Nilesh was gentle and respectful. I was really happy with my decision to go with Safari Lab. Don’t think twice, they’re the best in the business!Posted on shraddha suryavanshiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
