Rute

1. Du bliver nødt til at organisere en taxa til denne tur, og jeg kører med dig. Det er 130 km tur/retur fra Agra. Minimumsantallet af reservationer til turen er 2, hvis du kun er én rejsende, bedes du købe to billetter. De fleste rejsende, der besøger Agra, tager til Taj Mahal og går tilbage uden at vide, at der er så meget mere at lave i og omkring denne by end blot det. På din næste tur til Agra kan du overveje at tage på en statsautoriseret og drevet flodsafari på Chambal-floden. Chambal River Safari er ikke en almindelig safari, du skal på safari (motorbåde med redningsveste) på en flod, som engang var et badland fyldt med banditter. Banditterne er for længst væk og efterlader et uberørt, vildt og 'levende' flodøkosystem. Under safarien kommer du til at se gharials (kritisk truet), indisk sumpkrokodille, 7 arter af skildpadder, sjældne og trækfugle, hyæner, sjakaler, junglekat og Indian River Dolphin (hvis du er rigtig heldig).

• 5Incredible safari experience with an exceptional guide

  Safari on the Chambal River with Kunal was a highlight of my trip to India. Before the trip, we were going back and forth about booking it as it's an off-the-beaten-track, niche experience and we weren't sure what to expect. But we were convinced by all the amazing reviews. And it didn't disappoint! Kunal is an exceptional guide. On the way to the river, he explained the history of the region and facts about the species we might see. It was all really interesting and added to the understanding of the Sanctuary and its wildlife. On the river, it was such a serene, fun time. We saw some critically endangered Gharials, Marsh Crocodiles, different types of turtles, Monitor Lizards, and a huge variety of birds including kingfishers, herons, and ibises. Kunal is absolutely amazing at spotting animals from far away, and they do camouflage a lot! Kunal brought a camera and took photos throughout, so I was able to just relax and observe the animals. His photos are so much better than anything I could have taken with my iPhone, so I got a beautiful souvenir from the trip too! The experience is an absolute hidden gem.🐊

• 5Recommending Kunal for your river and tiger safaris!

  Hi all, in February we did some great tours organised by Kunal. He arranged a Chambal river safari for friends (combined with a visit to Agra/Taj Mahal) and also a visit to Corbett National Park for all of us. For both, we were actually pretty last minute, but he still managed to get us god safari zones, a private jeep (in Cornett), and some really top notch naturalists to guide us. I found having a good guide is really important to see more species, as sone are right next to you but without trained eyes they can be hard to spot! And of course a good guide and driver are helpful to increase the chance of seeing a tiger in Jim Corbett. Kunal has a handy newsletter you can follow to see what cool safaris are out there and get reminders when it is time to book, as good zones and private jeeps can fill up pretty quickly.

• 5The Chambal River - one of India’s most unique and memorable wildlife experiences

  We’ve just returned from a truly magical day on the Chambal River with Kunal, and cannot recommend his river safari highly enough. Exploring the once-legendary badlands of the Chambal is a completely unique experience — in fact, in the 25 years I’ve lived in India, I have never been anywhere quite like it. The Chambal’s former reputation as a bandit stronghold kept tourism at bay for decades. Ironically, this isolation helped preserve one of India’s most remarkable and unspoilt wildlife habitats. Today, the river teems with life: we saw the extraordinary and endangered gharial, basking marsh crocodiles, multiple species of turtle, and an abundance of birds. The landscape itself is breathtaking and almost timeless — the river winds gently through dramatic sandy ravines and wide open skies. Kunal is an exceptional guide and a delight to spend the day with. He shares his immense knowledge of the river and its ecosystem with genuine warmth and enthusiasm - his passion is truly a joy to behold and experience. His team and river crew are equally friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, ensuring the whole experience feels relaxed, safe and well organised from start to finish. If you’re visiting Agra or anywhere in the surrounding region, this river safari is an absolute must-do. It offers a rare chance to experience a quieter, wilder, and profoundly beautiful side of India.

• 5Must do for wildlife enthusiasts going anywhere near Agra

  When I decided to include gharials in my trip to India, internet research kept sending me to Kunal Jain. The internet was right. The trip was fantastic. Gharials and mugger crocodiles are virtually guaranteed and we saw plenty of both. There were also multiple types of turtles and loads of birds including a few Indian skimmers. We also lucked out and saw a jackal, a mongoose and a fox on the banks. Kunal is great to work with. He's extremely responsive to questions and handled my several annoying itinerary changes seamlessly. On the boat, he has a great eye and knows every species you will possibly see. For people into photography, he makes sure to have the driver get in the perfect position. It's also worth noting that the price is for the boat and the boat holds up to 5 people. I was a solo traveler who agreed to take the whole boat but when two other people reached out to Kunal about the same day, he asked if it would be okay and lowered my price accordingly. All this is to say, don't go to Agra for just a day trip from Delhi. Go for two days and add this trip to the Chunbal and a visit to Fatehpur Sikri.

• 5Great nature day

  We found this place by chance and word of mouth..we hadn't booked and after a conversation from out driver to the boatman, we went on a 2 hour boat trip up the Chambal. We saw Crocs, Gators a vast array of birds. On our return we were met by an official government ranger. We had to show ID, he was very nice and bought us Chai, and spicy snacks from a local vendor. We travelled through a nice market village, don't think they'd seen a white person for. long time. great experience

We saw many ghariyals , turtles and marsh crocodiles lazing on the rocks& riverbank in the sun.Mr Tomar also identified various birds for us and helped us take numerous pictures.Icing on cake was seeing the male gharial and skimmer bird skimming the river surface. Amazing experience to see crocodiles and various birds co-existing.Thankyou Mr Sudhir for organising a wonderful day trip to chambal river safari for us.

About Agra

Agra, ved Yamuna-floden i det nordlige Indien, rummer Taj Mahal, det monumentale Agra Fort og mogulernes spøgelsesby Fatehpur Sikri.

Taj Mahal, bygget af den mogulske kejser Shah Jahan som mausoleum for hans hustru Mumtaz Mahal, er en af verdens mest beundrede bygninger, og dens hvide marmor skifter farve fra daggry til skumring. Haverne, spejlbassinerne og stenindlægsarbejdet er smukkest tidligt om morgenen, og Mehtab Bagh-haverne på den anden side af floden byder på en rolig solnedgangsudsigt.

Top-ranked sights in Agra: Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, Tomb of I'timad-ud-Daulah.
