Long weekend or not, sometimes you just need to get away from the city life. If you’re looking for some peace and quiet, or excitement, or both – The Bison Resort needs to be on your to-do list. Located on the Kabini River backwaters, this luxurious wildlife resort gives you the best of comfort, service, and adventure. 
Accommodation:
The “rooms” are inspired by African style tents where you can pick between tents, machans, or the suite cottage. They all have a breathtaking view of the river and forest, while giving you the perfect blend of rustic nature and luxury.
Things to do:
Enjoy a dip in the pool, take advantage of their library, or if you want to relax and simply take in your surroundings, head over to the Observation Deck for a stunning view. For other Common Activities, the resort offers fishing, coracle rides, and treks.
If you really want to take advantage of the location, which you should, we recommend their Star Activities. These include Bush Dinners – a dinner on the banks of the backwater, Backwater Breakfast – a South Indian meal by the backwater, drinks by a crackling campfire, camping if you want to step out of your luxurious tents, and of course, safaris. 
Speaking of safaris, if you’re lucky, you’ll spot a tiger.
Or maybe even this big guy below!
Apart from the big cats, there are plenty of birds, deers, elephants, and more that will leave you in awe of the wilderness.
So as you can see, it’s impossible not to visit The Bison thanks to everything it has to offer. For details on how to get there and more, visit their website here.
