Taj Banjaar Tola

Why we like Taj Banjaar Tola

One of the many highlights is watching the flying squirrel at a neighbouring property – as regular as clockwork the squirrel comes out between 6.30 and 7 pm every evening and “flies” across the trees.

Dine at least once overlooking the river complete with a fire to enjoy a spectacular meal.

Facilities

Two elegant camps of nine suites have been designed in a contemporary style with pressed bamboo wall panels, gorgeous bamboo floors, and locally crafted furniture create a light atmosphere. Large glass doors open onto private decks, allowing a perfect view of passing wildlife. Local Bastar and Dogra art originating from nearby Chattisgarh is showcased within the camp representing the work of many talented artists.

For each Wild Child wristband sold it buys a conservation lesson for the local children in the surrounding villages. Educating the importance of how each element of the jungle contributes and affects the wellbeing of the Ecosystem. As a guest of Banjaar Tola, you can accompany these children on a game drive in the morning that includes a nourishing breakfast in the park. Upon return to the lodge, there is an opportunity to engage with kids in a fun way wherein they would discuss their impressions from the drive, and express the same through painting.
