Corbett park in  India is a paradise for birdwatchers, and is home to over 580 different species of birds.

Elephant Rides: An elephant ride through the dense forest of Corbett is a entirely unique experience. Being able to reach the most dense parts of the jungle and cross rivers, an elephant ride will take you to spots which are otherwise inaccessible by vehicles. Definitely increases your chances of greeting a tiger relaxing under the dense bushes!
