This was an excellent experience. I was nervous traveling as a solo female, Dinesh my driver made me feel safe and well cared for. The local guides were very knowledgeable and fun. I would highly recommend this trip.
Taj Mahal, Tiger and Pink CityWe really enjoyed our Golden Triangle tour with the Ranthambore safari extension. From the very beginning, communication with Sonia was smooth and efficient. Our driver, Ajay Kushwah, is a friendly and reliable person who took great care of us throughout the entire trip. Don’t hesitate to request him as your driver — he is definitely the best choice to navigate the chaos of India’s crazy traffic! In all the cities, our guides were very knowledgeable and provided us with valuable insights into the places we visited. A special thanks to Rajesh Parashar, our guide in Jaipur, who, together with Ajay, also took us to a couple of additional places we were interested in. We wouldn’t have been able to reach them without their help! There is also some free time built into the itinerary, which we personally enjoyed, as it gave us the flexibility to explore a bit on our own. For travelers who prefer a more structured schedule, it might be worth discussing additional activities or upgrades in advance. The team is very accommodating, and Sonia and the guides are happy to help tailor the experience to your preferences.
7 Days Golden Triangle Tour with Ranthambore Tigers and Taj Mahal Sunrise/SunsetThe 7 day tour was absolutely incredible. The organisation was seamless, the destinations breath taking and our trusty driver Parveen was there to ensure we arrived everywhere safely and with a smile on our faces! Would highly recommend.

What our customers ask about Safari in India
What are the best times of year to visit India's national parks for wildlife viewing?
Wildlife viewing in India's national parks thrives from October to June with the best tiger sightings happening from March to May. The parks close during monsoon season from July through September. Weather conditions at Kanha National Park are most favorable from February to April with pleasant temperatures between 25-35°C. Corbett National Park sees its best wildlife activity from November to March. According to a TourRadar traveler: "We managed to see 6 tigers in Ranthambore during our March visit - the visibility was excellent and weather perfect for safaris."
What types of accommodation can I expect on an Indian safari tour?
Accommodation options in India's national parks span from reliable mid-range lodges to high-end luxury properties. Visitors to Bandhavgarh National Park can choose between stays like the Mogli Jungle Resort and Lemon Tree while Kanha features properties such as the Kanha Earth Lodge and Seven Tigers Resort. Standard amenities include on-site restaurants local cuisine swimming pools and expert naturalist guides. A TourRadar traveler shared: "The drivers guides and most of the hotels were fantastic and could not do enough for us."
How many safaris are typically included per day in India's national parks?
The standard safari schedule includes two daily game drives. Morning safaris begin around 6:00 AM while afternoon drives start near 3:00 PM. Each safari lasts about 3-4 hours. The Tiger Safari Grand Tour demonstrates this schedule with two daily safaris at Tadoba Pench Kanha and Bandhavgarh National Parks. A TourRadar traveler confirms: "Morning and afternoon safaris gave us great opportunities to spot wildlife especially tigers in their natural habitat."
What wildlife can I expect to see besides tigers in Indian national parks?
The national parks of India offer encounters with diverse wildlife. Ranthambore houses leopards striped hyenas sambar deer nilgai and more than 300 bird species. Visitors to Bandhavgarh regularly spot wild boar chitals barasingha and various primates. A TourRadar traveler reports: "We saw everything from jackals and wild pigs to incredible bird life during our safaris at Kanha National Park."
What are the success rates for tiger sightings on Indian safaris?
Tiger sightings during peak season reach 50-70% probability at parks like Ranthambore and Bandhavgarh. Booking multiple game drives increases the chances of encountering these big cats. According to TourRadar travelers: "We saw tigers on two out of four safaris in Bandhavgarh which our guide said was typical for the peak season."
What is included in the meal plan during safari tours?
Full board meals come standard at most safari lodges. Ranthambore's Nahargarh resort serves both Indian and international dishes using produce from their kitchen garden. City hotels like those in Mumbai typically provide breakfast only. Tour operators accommodate special dietary needs including vegetarian Jain and halal options at all major wildlife lodges upon request.
