Tiger country, with a fort above it

About Ranthambore

Ranthambore National Park has one of India's better tiger-sighting records, set across dry deciduous forest, lakes and the ruins of a tenth-century fort that rises directly out of the reserve. Safaris run at first light and late afternoon with a private naturalist; sightings are never guaranteed, and a good naturalist reads the forest for far more than tigers alone; deer, sloth bears, crocodiles and an exceptional range of birds.

Best time to visit: November to April, when the park's vegetation thins and sightings become easier; the park closes for the monsoon from July to September.

Worth arranging

  • Morning and afternoon safaris with a private naturalist
  • Ranthambore Fort rising above the reserve
  • Some of India's most photographed tiger sightings
