BEYOND THE SAFARI
Our story, approach & vision
Discover the ideas that shape The Territory — from our journey in wildlife travel to a thoughtful approach to safari planning and a vision for more meaningful connections between travellers, wildlife and the wild places of India and beyond.
Our Story
Born From the Wild
The foundation of The Territory was laid in 2004 through an early exposure to wilderness during a summer nature camp attended by its founder, Karanraj Mehta. Over time, this experience evolved into a deeper understanding of ecological systems and a strong commitment towards promoting meaningful wildlife travel.In 2015, The Territory was formally established with the objective of curating responsible safari experiences that balance conservation sensitivity with premium travel standards.
Our Approach
Wildlife Guides Every Journey
Every safari begins by understanding what you want to experience. We consider your travel dates, interests, group, preferred pace and wildlife priorities before building the journey. From choosing the right national park and safari schedule to coordinating stays and transfers, our approach combines practical planning with genuine wildlife knowledge to create well-crafted, personalised safari experiences.
Our Vision
Creating Deeper Wildlife Journeys
Our vision is to make wildlife travel more meaningful by encouraging curiosity, observation and respect for nature. We want every wildlife safari to go beyond a list of sightings and become a deeper experience of landscapes, species and wild places. Through responsible and thoughtful travel, we hope to connect more people with India’s extraordinary wildlife and its conservation.
WHY THE TERRITORY
Good safaris begin long before the first safari.
The details matter. We help you choose the right reserve, the right season, the right length of stay and the right style of journey for what you hope to experience. The aim is not to promise a sighting. It is to give you the best possible conditions for a rewarding time in the wild, while making the rest of the journey feel effortless.
Wildlife-first Planning
We plan around the beautiful forest, the species, the season and the experience you are looking for.
Personalised Journeys
