About Tigers, Lions and Leopards Wildlife Tour
Feel the excitement as you set foot in the territory of three big cats. India is the only country in the world to have the three biggest felines out in the wild. While India has become increasingly synonymous with Tigers over the years, it is a land that is blessed with two other remarkable big cats, namely the Leopard and the Asiatic Lion. As you journey across the states of Rajasthan and Gujarat, you get the opportunity to traverse an array of habitats that these fantastic beasts call their home: Ranthambore, being an abode for Tigers and is one of the best places to see the tigers in the wild, Bera providing a suitable rocky outcrop for Leopards, and Gir exhibiting pockets of grasslands and open scrub forest for the world’s only thriving Asiatic Lion population. Gir is the only place in the world to see the Asiatic lion in the wild. Enthralling and exciting, this tour is sure to make your heart race with the sheer thrill of being in the presence of kings.
The dry rocky lands of Ranthambore, Bera, and Sasan Gir blend in perfectly with the architecture you get to witness while on this tour.
Wildlife with a dash of history and art, this tiger safari tour encompasses it all. Along with these big cats, you also get the opportunity to enjoy one of the seven most beautiful wonders of the world, the Taj Mahal. The history of this magnificent, marbled ode of love dates back to the 1600s era. With an exotic mix of Persian, Italian, French, and Muslim architecture, this mausoleum also made it to the ‘UNESCO World Heritage Site’ List.

Ranthambore tiger reserve covers 1411 square kilometers. The name comes from the thousand-year-old fort that still stands tall over the forest. The area has rocky hill crests that drop down to wide valleys between the Aravali and Vindhya ranges. There are also water springs and fruit trees scattered throughout. Ranthambore is a very rare and unusual place where a natural present meets a historical past. It is well known for the frequent daytime sightings of the tigers.

Not only Leopards! Another magnificent wildlife habitat Bera is famous for is Crocodiles. They are 15-foot giants. They could be as active as in their hunting process even if they are doing nothing. They don’t move much and are found basking on a piece of rock; hence, they sometimes create a camouflage with the surroundings of the reservoir, and you have to focus on the camera or binoculars as you see them from a distance. They sunbathe for the entire day, and whenever hungry, they simply dive into the reservoir full of fish.

Frequently Asked Questions
There are no zones that restrict a tiger’s movement. Therefore, all zones in Ranthambore National Park i.e., 1-10 are great for tiger safaris. That being said, zone 3 stands to be among the tourist favorite while on a tier safari in Ranthmabore National Park.
Tiger Safari India uses Maruti Gypsies for wildlife safaris. The Gypsy is a closed off-road 4×4 vehicle, making it ideal to use on a safari as it provides optimum safety while ensuring a swift and smooth transit across the sanctuary.
As the protected area remains closed from June to October, the best time to visit Gir is in winter, from November to March. The summer months of April and May are very hot but ideal for wildlife photography and wildlife viewing.
