Timings vary as season changes
Book as early as permitted for your preferred date. Availability and advance-booking windows are determined by the applicable booking rules.

Travellers can book a safari by checking availability via calendar on our website, or by calling us directly. Safari booking in advance is mandatory for a holiday tour to Kanha. Timings vary during summer and winter months and can change at the discretion of park management. The park remains closed in March on Holi and every Wednesday evening for safari.
Every day, a specific number of vehicles are permitted to enter different zones to avoid overcrowding and protect the natural flora and fauna.
