Delhi: Wildlife and Eco Tour with Monkey Safari

Exploring Delhi’s Natural Side: Wildlife and Eco Tour with Monkey Safari

When it comes to Delhi, most travelers think of bustling streets, historic monuments, and vibrant markets. But there’s a surprisingly lush, green side waiting to be explored — and this Wildlife and Eco Tour with Monkey Safari offers just that. This experience takes you beyond the city’s crowds to uncover some of its quieter, more natural spaces, all while learning about conservation efforts and sustainable wildlife practices.

What makes this tour stand out are three key things we love: the chance to see Delhi’s biodiversity up close in Asola-Bhatti Wildlife Sanctuary, the immersive Earth Walks through Lodhi Gardens or Sanjay Van, and the guided Monkey Safari where urban wildlife becomes fascinating rather than just a curiosity. Plus, the expert guides truly bring the experience to life with their knowledge and enthusiasm.

On the flip side, a possible consideration is the duration of only 8 hours, which might feel a bit quick if you’re eager for a more in-depth encounter with Indian wildlife. Still, this tour packs a well-paced, meaningful wildlife experience into a manageable day. It’s perfect for nature lovers, eco-conscious travelers, families with children, or anyone looking to see Delhi in a more natural light — all with the comfort of private transport and expert guidance.
