If you have only a long weekend, this is the most rewarding way to spend it from Delhi. Jaipur gives you the forts and palaces. Ranthambore gives you jungle, ruined pavilions, lakes and, with luck, a tiger.
Ranthambore is one of the best parks in India for tiger sightings because its tigers are used to safari vehicles and the forest is open. Even without a tiger, the park is beautiful, with a thousand-year-old fort on the hill.
Safari permits sell out early in winter, so tell us your dates as soon as you can. More Rajasthan routes, from short first trips to the full desert circuit, are on our Rajasthan tours page.
