Introduction

This Ganesh Chaturthi, escape to the wild heart of India—Bastar, where cascading monsoon waterfalls, tribal traditions, sacred temples, and ancient forests come alive in full glory. Our fixed departure tour from 3rd to 7th September 2025 perfectly aligns with Eid-e-Milad, Anant Chaturdashi, and a Sunday—no leaves required—making it a rare opportunity for an enriching long weekend!

Timed just after the peak of the monsoon, this is when Chitrakote, Tirathgarh, Tamda Ghumar, and the forested valleys of Bastar are at their lush best. You'll join a scenic forest trek to the hilltop Dholkal Ganesh idol, enjoy a specially curated tribal dance performance, and immerse yourself in Bastar’s spiritual and cultural legacy—ethically and respectfully.

A true highlight? A traditional lunch setup with Chitrakote Falls as the backdrop, complete with local delicacies like the famous red ant chutney (for the adventurous!).

Only one airline operates flights to Jagdalpur, and fares will rise fast—book soon to lock in your seat for this rare, immersive getaway!
