DENWA BACKWATER ESCAPE, SATPURA NATIONAL PARK

INTIMATE SAFARI LODGE

Surveying the scenic backwaters of the Denwa River, Denwa Backwater Escape is an intimate safari lodge ideally situated on the edge of Satpura National Park.

The lodge’s tranquil location, combined with beautiful views over the river, grasslands and Pachmari hills, make it a great option for those seeking a more intimate wilderness experience in central India. Across the river lies Satpura National Park where you can enjoy safaris in search of white bison, Indian giant squirrels, sambar, leopards and the elusive tiger. Other available activities include bird watching, walking safaris, boat cruises and village walks.

Constructed from locally sourced materials like wood, stone and baked tiles, the design of the lodge is modern whilst local textiles and handcrafted furniture add colour and character. There are just eight cottages and two tree houses in total, all featuring classic safari-style furniture and crisp cotton upholstery. Cottages also have private terraces where you can enjoy a sleep-out under the stars. The lodge has a superb swimming pool, ideal for a refreshing dip in between safari activities.

“FLAWLESS, AGAIN”

This is the third time I’ve used TUTC. The service, as before, was flawless. Aside from putting in place all the major details of a complex trip to Japan, Dan at TUTC nailed every detail: train tickets were for seats with large luggage space (very important in Japan, as we discovered); a mobile internet wifi was included; together with a pre-charged use-pretty-much-anywhere travel card (again, important – Japan has multiple transport companies). For any kind of complex trip I won’t go anywhere else.

“INDIA AT ITS MOST INCREDIBLE”

Unbelievably brilliant from start to finish. 91�� gave us complete flexibility while tailoring the trip to our personal preferences. Communication was excellent throughout, and the in-country team in India was super-efficient at every stage. The quality of the experience was exceptional – and the value for money, remarkable. From expert naturalists to thrilling wildlife encounters (tigers, leopards, 140 species of birds), awe-inspiring temples, the Taj Mahal, scenic walks and warm, welcoming people – not to mention the fantastic curry – it was a truly superb holiday. “Ultimate” really is “91��”!

“TRIP TO THE TOP OF THE WORLD”

Everything about our trip was excellent. While it’s a considered investment, the service more than justifies the cost. We loved the accommodation – beautifully chosen and thoughtfully located. Our guides ranged from grear to truly exceptional. And the places we visited? They exceeded all expectations. Peru is an extraordinarily beautiful country, and this journey gave us a real sense of its wonder.
