April 4, 2017 by Raggi Mudde

Anyone who is visiting the Mysore District in Karnataka will definitely come across the name of The Serai Group, mainly due to the famous resort that they have built here. The Serai Resorts is the perfect haven for relaxing when you visit Kabini, the home of the largest elephant herd in Asia.

The beauty of the strategically located resort is further enhanced by the magnificent river Kabini along with the incredible wildlife here.  The River Kabini runs between two well-known wildlife sanctuaries, Bandipur and Nagarhole.
