After breakfast back at the hotel, you check out and drive to Jaipur, with a stop off at Fatehpur Sikri - the deserted but wonderfully preserved former capital city of Akbarโ€™s Moghul empire.

  • Day 6 Day 6: Jaipur Free Time & Drive To Ranthambore
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 6: Jaipur Free Time & Drive To Ranthambore

      You have most of this morning free to explore Jaipurโ€™s busy streets and markets further. Leaving around noon, you drive mainly on small rural roads for around 5 hours to reach Ranthambore National Park which will be your base for several safaris into the park over the next two days. These are early in the morning to try and view the wildlife in the Park before it gets too hot, and later in the afternoon as it cools down and the wildlife becomes more active again. As well as its famous tigers, the park is home to many species of deer, Marsh Crocodiles, Hyenas, Jungle Cats, Chital, Nilgai, Chinkara and Sloth Bears. There is also a sizeable bird population present throughout the year. OVERNIGHT: Ranthambore lodge. MEALS: Breakfast, Dinner

  • Day 7 Day 7: Ranthambore National Park, Wildlife Safaris
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 7: Ranthambore National Park, Wildlife Safaris

      You enjoy two safaris into the park today, one of them by โ€™canterโ€™ and one by jeep. The morning safari is by โ€™canterโ€™. These are open backed trucks that can carry up to around 16 people. While they canโ€™t get as far into the park, and you are sharing with several other people, the extra height means you can see better into the long grass. After returning to the hotel, in the afternoon, you do a jeep safari. There are only a restricted number of jeeps allowed into the park, so we need to book these well in advance for you. They do allow for a more flexible, and exploratory trip into the park and you have a more personal relationship with your guide. If you have time available, then adding extra days and safaris here will give you a better chance to see both the tigers and other wildlife. OVERNIGHT: Ranthambore lodge. MEALS: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

      Day 9: Drive To Udaipur Via Chittorgarh

      The main feature breaking todayโ€™s drive to Udaipur is the hilltop fort at Chittorgarh, which is a classic depiction of Rajput culture and values. Standing on a large site on an 180m high hill rising dramatically over the plains below, the fort was sacked three times and youโ€™ll learn fascinating stories of thousands of men marching out to certain death while the womenfolk inside the folk commited Jauhar (an act of self immolation by plunging in a large fire).
