    This place is worth going if you want a quick break or a short vacation. Especially the resort was quite good and while staying there you cal also hear hyenas howling!!! And safari is of 2 to 3 hrs scheduled at early morning and at evening. With all of that it's a beautiful place!

    The place is easily accessible from Bilaspur and takes about 45 minutes to reach. Government safari vehicles can be taken and can accommodate 6 adults. These cost around 4 thousand rupees which comes along a driver and a guide. The ride can get bumpy but the forest is beautiful and worth visiting. Wild animals are rare to come by but the main attraction is the forest and the clean air. Mobile network is not available in most of the forest. Safaris are arranged in the morning 6-9 and afternoon 3-6.

    It was my dream place to visit and stay there in Amarkantak. Due to kovid 19 there were a few pilgrim who came to visit Narmada temple in the morning at 6.30am. We had a wide space for us to visit the shrine and worshipped the idol. We are quenched and content, though if I get another chance, I will be there again because I had to met with Barfani Baba, which I was unable to. 🙏🙏🙏

    Overall very good and peaceful place with thick and lushed green forests. But unfortunately we couldn't see a single tiger here. Reasons are still not specified.

    A natural habitat for wildlife creatures however humans started to interfere here also. Some small temples are easily available with some monkeys. A nice place to spend 2-3 days holidays with friends and family. If you are a lucky one then you can see tiger, fox and peacocks also. The scenic route and view of mountains are very attractive and heart touching. You will definitely enjoy it.

    Achanakmar Tiger Reserve is situated in Chattisgarh, around 60 kms from Bilaspur. Categorised as a tropical deciduous forest, Achanakmar Tiger Reserve is breathtakingly beautiful with the most varied flora and fauna. This tiger reserve is a part of the huge Achanakmar-Amarkantak Biosphere Reserve, and hence, it is home to more than 600 species of different medicinal plants. The scenic Maniyari River flows right from the centre of this reserve which is the forests lifeline. Even if it’s not for a proper trail through the jungle, one can get bowled over by the beauty of this reserve in just a small trek through a few parts of this park. The reserve is open on all days of the week, from 8:00 am till 6:00 pm. However, it may vary during special occasions and festivals. The entry fee structure is mentioned below: · India – Rs. 50/ Person · Indian Children – Rs. 20/ Child · Foreign Nationals – Rs. 100 / Person · Foreign Children – Rs. 35/ Child · Still Camera – Rs. 50/ Camera · Videography- Rs. 100/ Video Camera A visit to Achanakmar Tiger Reserve would be incomplete without a jungle safari and if you are planning a trip there, don’t forget to book your safari beforehand. The safaris start every year from November till June and anytime between these months is a good time to visit Achanakmar Tiger Reserve. However, the forest experiences the most number of tourists from November-January. So, if you want to avoid the crowd, then you can skip visiting the sanctuary during these months. However, the park remains closed during the monsoons, i.e., from June-October. The safari has two options, bus safari and jeep safari. The jeep safari timings are 6:00 am – 10:00 am and from 3:00 pm – 7:00 pm. The costs range from Rs. 2000 - Rs.3000/ jeep and the jeeps can carry six tourists, one guide and one driver. The bus safari timings are just the same; however, the cost is Rs. 500/person. The buses can carry 20 tourists + the driver The Achanakmar Wildlife Sanctuary is closed during the monsoon season. The best time to pay a visit would be from November to June. The weather conditions remain clear making it easy for any sightings. Dust cyclones often accompany the hot summers. Travellers are advised to check the climate conditions in advance

    A tranquil and beautiful place. A very dense forest with a lot of animals like Bison ,spotted deer, peacocks ,leopard and tiger. The tiger is rarely seen. It remains closed on tuesday. There are many resort , but book them before hand, or the private ones have unreasonably high cost. The food is delicious in the reserve's canteen and also in the nearby hotels.

    Vardhan Consulting Engineers provides an extraordinary platform to learn and understand things more in a practical way by providing greater corporate exposure. Working as an engineering intern on electric vehicle techno-commercial analysis helped me a lot to understand more about electric vehicles and its barriers. I gained an understanding of corporate terms and its standards. It has also helped me to learn potential skills which are very beneficial in the long run. The mentors were very knowledgeable and helpful. I Had a great experience.

😐 I've not visited on island as river flowing above the connecting road. But, this the right time (Rainy season) to visit to get the best view of river and you can also enjoy boating. They charge ₹50 for up-down to river island. Good for picnic purpose.
