About Tiger, Taj and Leopard Safari
Taj and Tigers, two things that go hand in hand when it comes to wildlife and culture in India. However, not many people make an effort to see yet another beautiful cat, the Leopard. Jim Corbett said, “Those who have not seen a Leopard in its natural surroundings can have no conception of the grace of movements, and beauty of coloring, of this the most graceful, and the most beautiful o all animals we have in our Indian Jungles. His attraction is not limited to his outward appearance, pound for a pound his strength is second to none, and in courage he lacks nothing”. There is no place better than Bera to see this beautiful, graceful animal. A three night stay here gives a certainty of a good Leopard sighting, not once, but at least a couple of times, maybe even the young cubs.
Ranthambhore is one park where the hunter (the Tiger) was being hunted by the Maharaja until India’s independence. And then he gave it to the Government for conservation. Today this hunter prowls his kingdom nonchalantly. The first sight of the Tiger will remain etched in your memory forever. It will be amongst your top 5 happiness’s in this life. Combining this tour with the Taj Mahal in Agra, and the pink city of Jaipur makes it a crash course on what India is all about, the Taj, Temples, Tombs, Tandoor and Tigers.

On arrival check-in at the hotel. Thereafter, you proceed to visit the red sandstone Agra Fort which stands like a crescent on the banks of Yamuna River enclosed by forbidding 20-meter high walls, with a 12-meter moat between them. Three successive Mughal emperors- Akhbar, Jehangir, and Shah Jahan- helped create this massive structure, on the lines of Hindu and Muslim Architecture. [The Taj is closed on Friday].
Overnight stay at Agra.
Day 3: Agra – Ranthambore (265 kms/5 hrs drive)
With an early wake-up call, and a hot beverage, drive out into the forest for the morning game drive. The sun rises over the hills and filters through the dense copses of Sal, creating a serene ambiance. The park resounds with the chirps of colorful birds, and paints a picturesque view, as Deer graze, Monkeys chatter and small animals scurry through the undergrowth.
After breakfast at around 1000 hours, drive to Ranthambore National Park. This is a total of 265 km drive which will take you about 05 hours on the road. On arrival at Ranthambore, check-in and proceed for lunch. Post lunch, proceed for your first-afternoon safari in Ranthambore National Park.
Lodged in the state of Rajasthan, Ranthambore comprises of distinct areas with varied conservation history, virtually separated by narrow corridors, linking them to the core of the jungle. These distinct areas are Ranthambore National Park, Keladevi Sanctuary and the Sawai Madhopur Sanctuary. Dinner and overnight at the lodge.
Day 4 & 5: In Ranthambore National Park
Morning and evening tiger safari at Ranthambore National Park. All meals and overnight at the lodge.
Apart from flora and fauna, Ranthambore is situated in a belt known to be an epicenter for beautiful Avifauna. With 300 species of birds, Ranthambore is a paradise for avid bird watchers. Some interesting resident species of birds are Large Cormorant, Painted Spurfowl, Sarus Crane, Bronzed Winged Jacana, Sandpiper, Kingfisher, Nighjar, Painted Sandgrouse, Great Horned Owl and many more winter migrants which travel from their nesting grounds of Northern Himalayas to Ranthambore and surrounding areas.
Ranthambore, with an area of 400 sq. Kms. Encompassing rocky hill crests which descend to open valleys between the Aravali and Vindhya ranges, dotted with water pools and fruit trees, gets its name from the thousand-year-old fortress that continues to loom gracefully over the forest. Known well for the diurnal activity of Tigers, Ranthambore is a very special and unusual area where a natural present, meets a historical past. Dotted across the landscape are the crumbling ruins of the past glory that has been witnessed by Ranthambore; palaces and old guard posts encompass the magical and ethereal quality of this great wilderness.
Day 6: Ranthambore – Jaipur (180 kms/3 hrs drive)
Morning jeep safari to the national park. Post the morning safari, drive to Jaipur. This is a 180 km journey and should take you about 03 hours on the road. On arrival check-in at the hotel and take the rest of the day at leisure. Painted in the color of Hospitality, the pink city of Rajasthan, Jaipur, is the epitome of Rajput culture. The land of fairy-tale palaces, rugged fortresses perched on barren hills and broad avenues, is extremely photographic and picturesque. The first planned city of its time, Jaipur is time-bound by a formidable wall. Overnight stay at Jaipur.
Day 7: Jaipur – Bera (390 kms/7 hrs drive)
After a hearty breakfast, drive from Jaipur to Bera. Take a journey of 390 km (07 hours) through the countryside to reach Bera. Located in Rajasthan, it is close to the Jawai Dam. Known for its magnificent sightings of leopards, the experience of sighting one is quite unique and different. It is not a jungle or a forest, instead, you will sight Leopards in the sandy village.
Home to plenty of mammals and Avifauna, Bera is an attraction for wildlife enthusiasts to spot the evasive Leopard, the mighty Blue Bull, Crocodiles, the ever so mischievous Hyena, graceful Pelican, the Greyleg Goose, Robin Accentor, the Demoiselle Crane and the Bar-headed Goose to name a few. Evening safari, dinner, and overnight at Bera.
Day 8 & 9: In Bera
Followed by breakfast, experience the golden mornings of Rajasthan with wildlife sightings. Morning & afternoon Safari; also one can see the village life in Rajasthan. All meals at the lodge.
Not only Leopards! Another magnificent wildlife habitat Bera is famous for is Crocodiles. What actors they are; 15 feet giants, they can fool anyone with their languidly lying illusions. They could be as active as in their hunting process even if they are doing nothing. They won’t move, hence, they sometimes create a camouflage with the rusty muddy ground near the reservoir and we have to focus as we see them from a distance. They sunbathe for the entire day and whenever hungry, they simply dive in at the lake full of fish.
This helped to preserve the forest and its wildlife, although the Maharajas made full use of their rights. At independence, Bandhavgarh remained the private property of the Maharaja until he gave it to the state for the formation of the National Park in 1968. After the park was created poaching and hunting was brought under control and the number of animals rose dramatically. The Tigers in particular prospered and the 1986 extension provided much needed forest to accommodate them. Overnight at the resort.
