JUST FINISHED VERY GOOD TRIP OF 20DAYS FROM JABALPUR TO JAIPUR IN INDIA.. IT WAS ALL ABOUT WILDLIFE AND CULTURE.
WE STARTED IT FROM JABALPUR AND THEN WENT 4 TIGER RESERVES AND 1 BIRD SANCTUARY AND 1 WORLD HERITAGE SITE.
WE COULD SEE 3 LEOPARDS, 6 TIGERS, SPOTTED DEER, SAMBAR DEER, WILD BOAR, INDIAN GAZELLE, SWAMP DEER, BLUE BULL, INDIAN BISON... SO MANY MONKEYS AND LOTS OF BIRDS...
IN THIS OUR CREW WAS VERY DEDICATED TOWARDS THEIR WORK.. THEY ARE VERY GOOD WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHER ASWELL... THEY TOUGHT PHOTOGRAPHY WHOME SO EVER WERE INTERESTED...
WE DID GAME DRIVES IN 4X4 JEEP... ITS WAS VERY NICE TO DRIVE IN DIRT ROAD...
WE CLIMBED THE HILL, CROSSED THE RIVERS AND STREAMS... DROVE ON VERY BAD ROADS ASWELL BUT THAT JEEP WAS SO STRONG, IT CAN ACTUALLY CARRY AN ELEPHANT ASWELL...
THIS IS THE TRIP WHICH I HAVE FINISHED

1. What make and model was the "4x4 Jeep"?

2. Did you travel on the trip as an satisfied customer or a Director of Prayaan India Overland?

3. Why are you shouting? Please don't type with Caps Lock key depressed, as capital letters when typing signify a raised voice.

I wonder if this relates to my trip ?

The vehicle used in the reserves are 'gypsy's' very heavily modified for tourists, they give a great veiw al around, great for taking photographs

There is a driver and a guide, then the rest of the area is filled with tourists

Even little Bears are allowed to travel, in fact they are the preferred companion

They dont eat anything, they never complain, they are always there

Everyone should take one with them to share the trips cheers1

Good one. The Maruti MG413W Gypsy King is of course based on a Suzuki SJ40/410, built in India by Maruti Suzuki. A very capable little vehicle, it can however shake your fillings from your teeth.

Over the years improvements have led to the Gypsy having a wider track - meaning far more stability than the original SJ , plus replacement engines and gearboxes. All in all, it's a cracking little vehicle.

... and yes, teddy emblems on bonnets as standard! Very Happy

Here is another vehicle, as you can see this has even more modifications, by the addition of 2 more seats at the back

This was on a test drive, to see if it affected the stability of it
