Capture the Majesty of India’s Big Cats—A Once-in-a-Lifetime Wildlife Photo Expedition!

India is a land of vibrant contrasts – a place where ancient traditions blend seamlessly with modern life, where bustling cities give way to beautiful landscapes, and where every corner tells a story. 

For a Western traveler, stepping into India is like stepping into another world—one filled with rich culture, breathtaking scenery, and a deep connection to history. But beyond its temples, markets, and colorful festivals, India is home to some of the most extraordinary wildlife on the planet.

And at the heart of this wild beauty is the Bengal tiger—one of the most elusive and majestic creatures on Earth. There’s nothing quite like the thrill of spotting a tiger in its natural habitat—its piercing gaze locking onto yours, its powerful form moving silently through the dense jungle. Photographing these magnificent cats isn’t just about capturing an image—it’s about witnessing raw nature at its finest.

Venture deep into India’s premier Tiger Reserves over 10 exhilarating days, guided by expert local trackers on 10 immersive safaris. Every moment holds the anticipation of a once-in-a-lifetime encounter, making this the ultimate Bengal Tiger Adventure. Are you ready to step into their world? 

Join World Photographic Cup Team Canada photographers Dee Potter and Manpreet Sokhi on an epic photo adventure designed to help you capture the most portfolio-worthy wildlife images of your life. 

Dee, a Canadian nature photographer and top ten finalist at the 2025 World Photographic Cup, is a dedicated mentor, leading workshops and tours to inspire photographers and refine their craft. Manpreet, marking his second time on the elite Team Canada, brings deep knowledge of wildlife photography along with India’s customs, language, and way of life, having spent half his life there before moving to Canada. 

With their combined expertise, you’ll have the perfect support system to create your own breathtaking wildlife and nature photographs.
