Our Perspective

Our perspective on this property

Bannerghatta Nature Camp is the most accessible JLR property in the entire network — just 25 km from M.G. Road in Bengaluru. And in the heart of what most Bengaluru residents drive past is something genuinely extraordinary: India's first Lion and Tiger Safari, a bear rehabilitation facility, Asia's largest butterfly park and 25,000 acres of carefully preserved jungle where wild elephants roam freely.

Five accommodation types are available — Log Hut Package (Rs 6,487–7,632), Wooden Package (Rs 6,082–7,155), Executive Tent Package (Rs 5,445–6,406), Tented Package (Rs 5,097–5,997) and Dormitory Package (Rs 3,339). All include exactly the same activities: Herbivore Safari, Lion-Tiger-Bear Safari, Zoo visit, Butterfly Park visit and all meals. The difference is accommodation type only.

Critical note for every caller: Tuesday is the weekly holiday for the zoo and safari. For Tuesday check-ins, activities are conducted on Wednesday. Always tell this to guests when they call.

One night gives the complete Bannerghatta experience. Book Friday evening to Sunday morning. Call us.
