What People Say About Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary
“Lovely experience. The journey through the jungle via jeep was amazing.” - Deep Saurav Ray.
“The thrill of exploring deep forest and spotting animals in their natural habitat is exhilarating. You can spot wild animals like elephants, tigers, and various birds.” - Music Lovers Group.
“The ticket here will cost you around Rs.350. You will spot mostly peacocks and deer. The entire ride is through a bumpy forest road.” -Tanima B.
“Not worth it as they don’t go deep into the jungle, and most of it is adjacent and close to the main road. It was a cursory safari in my opinion.” - Rajesh BP.
