A gypsy safari is a type of jeep safari that takes visitors deep into the jungle to spot various animals such as tigers, elephants, leopards, deer, and various species of birds. The gypsy safaris are conducted by trained guides who are well-versed in the park's wildlife and terrain.

The gypsy safaris are conducted twice a day, in the morning and the evening. The morning safari starts early in the morning and lasts for approximately four hours, while the evening safari starts in the late afternoon and lasts for about three hours.

During the gypsy safari, visitors are required to follow certain rules and regulations, such as maintaining silence, not littering, and not getting off the jeep at any point during the safari. It is also important to dress appropriately and carry sunscreen, hats, and water bottles as the safari can be quite hot and dusty.
