Wildlife Adventure in India’s Golden Triangle

We highly recommend a visit to the Taj Mahal again this morning, to appreciate the beauty of the surrounding areas. The early morning views here are spectacular. Later this morning, visit the UNESCO listed Fatehpur Sikri before your train transfer to Sawai Madhopur. From the station you will be transferred to your hotel, close to Ranthambore National Park. One of India’s most beautiful parks, Ranthambore is also the premier location in Rajasthan to spot the majestic tiger. A wildlife sanctuary since 1957, the park has also been part of ‘Project Tiger’ since 1974, and remains one of the best places to spot many kinds of wildlife throughout India. The park is closed from July until September.

To increase your chances of spotting tigers, it’s recommended to take part in multiple safaris. Today you will have both morning and evening game drives; Rainbow highly recommends a private drive with a knowledgeable guide to get the full experience. The park is home to over 300 different species of bird, as well as a massive variety of mammals and reptiles. Just some of the resident animals that visitors here can spot include Sambar deer, Sloth bears, Indian flying foxes, Indian false vampire bats and Jungle cats.

Another full day to roam the park and spot more fascinating wildlife. Rainbow has relationships with the best guides and drivers in Ranthambore, so we can assure our clients the best possible wildlife experience. In addition to spotting the animals of the park, keep an eye out for the more than 300 different varieties of flora that make up the lovely landscape.

Enjoy a last morning safari drive through the park before heading to Jaipur. India’s ‘Pink City’ is a flamboyant and striking place full of life. Check into your hotel before spending the evening at leisure.

Today we recommend an early start to beat the mid-morning rush around the city. The striking Amber Fort is at its best in the morning, and here you can discover intricate interiors and a fascinating history of the culture of Jaipur. After a morning of sightseeing return to the hotel to relax and unwind before heading back out into the city to explore some more. Jaipur is bursting with markets and interesting shops, and is a great place to browse for souvenirs. The Rainbow Tours team is happy to suggest and arrange any activities in the Jaipur area.

Enjoy a relaxing morning with breakfast at your hotel. Gurugram, just 30 kilometres from New Delhi, is a sparkling metropolis that combines bustling shops and restaurants with vibrant open spaces and parks. Enjoy your day here, perhaps with some sightseeing or shopping, before settling into your hotel.
