The wait is finally over for wildlife enthusiasts and nature lovers! Kaziranga National Park in Assam is all set to reopen its famous Elephant Safari on 1st November 2025. This marks the beginning of a new tourist season, inviting visitors from around the world to witness the mesmerizing beauty of Kaziranga — home to the majestic one-horned rhinoceros, wild elephants, and countless other species that make this UNESCO World Heritage Site a natural wonder.

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Wildlife Experience

Riding on the back of a gentle elephant as the morning mist rises from the tall grasslands of Kaziranga is an experience like no other. The Elephant Safari offers an intimate and eco-friendly way to explore the park’s wilderness. Unlike a Jeep Safari, it allows you to get closer to animals — especially the one-horned rhinos that Kaziranga is globally known for — without disturbing their natural behavior.

As you move through dew-kissed meadows and forest trails, you might spot bar-headed geese, swamp deer, hog deer, wild buffaloes, and even a glimpse of the elusive Royal Bengal Tiger. The symphony of chirping birds and the rhythmic footsteps of your elephant make this journey truly magical.
