You’re right about the October February window. The sanctuary’s cooler mornings mean deer and birds are more active. If you’re staying at Hyatt Place Bodh Gaya, you can hop on the 3:45 a.m. local bus and arrive around 4 a.m., just as the mist lifts and the animals start moving. A cab would cut the drive to about 20 minutes, but the bus gives you a good balance of cost and timing. TravelIndiaDeals may earn a commission if you book through this link.
