Arguably one of the best wildlife reserves to spot a tiger, Ranthambore is now one of the last remaining patches of untouched forests. The Tiger roams here in all its glory, so much so, that Ranthambore is credited to be home to the world’s most photographed tigers. It also houses the Leopard, Jungle cat, Jackal, Sambar, Chital, Nilgai, Sloth Bear, Common Langur, Marsh Crocodile and a lot of migratory waterfowl. The Caracal, a rather rare animal, is also a denizen of this magnificent Tiger Reserve. The imposing Ranthambore fort forms a jaw - dropping backdrop to these beauties of the forest. The picturesque lakes of Rajbagh, Padam and Malik are the centre of attraction for all the wildlife lovers visiting this forest.
It is only at Ranthambore that you can see a lazing crocodile, wading herds of Sambar deer, screeching peacocks in the trees and a tiger breaking cover and darting toward the lake, in a single frame!
Our camp leaders are passionate and knowledgeable about wildlife and will guide you through the park, helping you spot and identify the animals and birds. They will also share with you the stories and secrets of this amazing forest, and how we can protect it for future generations.
