This package takes you on the trail of the Indian Tiger and a magnificent bird population. The heritage site of Ranthambhore, housing palaces, a formidable fort and a popular temple is a most convenient place to see the tiger in its natural habitat. Just the prospect of spotting pugmarks and stripes, amidst the forested hills and lakes, lodges and water holes is excitement in itself. The Ranthambhore sanctuary is home to the Tiger Project, one of India's famous conservation success stories.

Near the small city Bharatpur is the Keoladeo National Park. Once the hunting grounds of the princes of Bharatpur, it is ranked as one of the world's finest bird sanctuaries today. This park is visited by over 400 species of water birds including the rare Siberian crane. Among the amazing variety of birds that arrive in this park each year are many from faraway places like Afghanistan, Central Asia, Siberia and Tibet, attracting both ornithologists and layman alike.

Both Bharatpur and Ranthambhore are in Rajasthan, and are easily approached through Delhi or Jaipur. One may suitably combine a visit to these places with a trip to the sanctuaries. Delhi, India’s capital gives you a feel of ancient, medieval and modern India through its various monuments built at different points in history. In Jaipur the capital of Rajasthan, one can see forts and palaces marking the glories of a royal past. Its colourful bazaars are a special and friendly treat for visitors.
