We revised our route plan to cover Nagarhole tiger reserve in order to have a thrilling experience of passing through a jungle. (And maybe spot a tiger) I love the clouds by the way.

Coorg has some mesmerizing waterfalls within its 25km radius.

The Airbnb owners were generous enough to offer us a bonfire in middle of the jungle with Cauvery river flowing next to us.

Day 3

1. Started safari at 6.30am.
2. The jungle safari experience cannot be described in words.
3. Although we didn't spot a tiger but were able to see deers, wild cows and buffaloes, wild pigs, numerous peacocks, owls, mongoose while monkeys and langoors were pretty common.
Oh yes. We did spot a leopard's foot print though.
4. And left Bandipur, with lifetime memories, to Bengaluru.
5. Decided to enroute via BR hills which is a famous wildlife sanctuary and has some amazing view points.
