I have been planning a holiday in wild life sanctuary for a long time and selected Bandipur which is near to Bangalore where I live.
The distance to Bandipur is about 240 KM (from Yelahanka) Via Mysore. Due to metro work it takes almost 90 minutes to cross the city but after that the drive is pleasant and comfortable. En route you have many good places where you can take a break.
Left Bangalore around 8 am and en route stopped at Nanjangud Shiva temple for an hour and proceeded to M.C.Resorts near Bandipur where we
had made our stay arrangements.
The safari was good in as much as we could see some elephants,deer,monkey,peacock etc..We could not see any tiger or leopard.Rested for the day and walked around the resort.The swimming pool and indoor games areas are good. The resort does not have telephones in rooms and they also do not have TV in the rooms.The food at the resort was okay but one feels it could be better.
All said and done it was a nice change from city life for weekend.
