Ranthambore Tigers

The Park is open to tourists from the 1st of October to the 30th of June.



Most of the tourists visit the park between November and March, mainly because the summer’s heat is unbearable. The period between November and February is excellent for wildlife viewing, particularly for bird watching. A lot of migratory birds visit the park during the winter months. During the summer months (April to June), when the temperature soars over 40 degrees Centigrade during the day, sighting tigers is relatively easier than it is in winters. March is a great month for wildlife viewing and the temperatures are not very high. The magnificent 8th century Ranthambhore Fort is situated within the National Park. It is one of India’s largest with a circumference of eight kilometers and was among the most strategic forts in Hindustan during the Mughal period. It has Mughal and Rajput palaces, mosques and temples including an important one dedicated to Lord Ganesha, the Elephant God. Ideal for a half day excursion, exploring the monuments and the Jungle within the Fort. We can, of course, organise a little picnic! The old city of Sawai Madhopur, is known for its silver jewelry, various objects made from khus (vetiver) grass, indigenous perfumes and other local craft. It also has some old temples and is worth a visit. We organize a camel safari, outside the reserve, on prior booking. You have a good chance to spot birds, smaller mammals and maybe the occasional herd of Indian antelope. A great way to explore rural Rajasthan. Surwal Lake. A good place to see migratory duck, geese and other birds during the winter season. The Dastakari Kendra, a local co-operative that provides employment to village women and keeps alive local skills. It is walking distance from the camp but we provide a vehicle at no charge.
