Ranthambore National Park is a spectacular destination for travelers seeking a truly wild experience — the kind where adventure, nature and tranquillity meet. The park is famed for its thriving population of Bengal tiger, and offers some of the highest chances in India to spot these majestic cats roaming freely.
Beyond tigers, Ranthambore is home to a rich diversity of wildlife — from leopards, deer and wild boar to countless bird species and reptiles — set in forests, lakes and rocky hills that make each safari a unique adventure.
For visitors from abroad, Ranthambore is more than a wildlife reserve: it’s a chance to immerse in India’s natural beauty, enjoy scenic safari rides, and experience the thrill of seeing exotic animals in their habitat — a memory that stays long after the tour ends.
Ranthambore is best known for the Ranthambore National Park, one of India’s top wildlife reserves, famous for its Royal Bengal Tigers, ancient ruins, lakes, and diverse flora and fauna.
The ideal months to visit are October to June.
October–February: Pleasant weather, great for safaris.
March–June: Hot, but better chances of spotting tigers near water sources.
A 2–3 day trip is recommended, allowing time for 2–4 safari drives, a visit to Ranthambore Fort, and relaxation at your lodge.
Safaris can be booked online through the official forest department website or via hotels, tour operators, and travel agents. Booking in advance is strongly recommended, especially in peak season.
Safaris run twice daily:
Morning safari
Evening safari
Exact timings change with the season but typically last 3–3.5 hours each.
