The places to visit in Kabini may be few, but every tourist spot stands out, emerging prettier than the other. The Jungle Safari that offers a view of rare fauna and exotic flora is one such spot which is a must-visit! Species are allowed to roam here in their natural habitat while you admire their majestic magnificence from a Jeep that keeps you at a safe distance from the wildlife. Commonly seen here are bears, elephants, tigers, deer, gaurs, lions, the rare sambar, and the rarest of them all, the bison. The best time to head out for a Jungle Safari is the dry season between October and June when the animals wander freely through the wilderness.Price: Rs. 150Timings: Jeep safari: 5:30 am to 10:00 am and 3:00 pm to 7:00 pm               Bus safari: 6:00 AM to 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM
