Best Jungle Safaris in Rajasthan: Ranthambore, Sariska & More

The best jungle safaris in Rajasthan range from tiger reserves to a leopard safari inside Jaipur. Here are six to compare.

1. Ranthambore National Park

The state's flagship tiger reserve, with a fort and lakes.

2. Sariska Tiger Reserve

An Aravalli park about 110 km from Jaipur, with temples and old fortifications.

3. Jhalana Leopard Reserve

A leopard safari within Jaipur city limits.

4. Kumbhalgarh Wildlife Sanctuary

Aravalli forest with wolves and sloth bears, near Udaipur.

A bird paradise for cycling and walking, best in winter.

6. Desert National Park, Jaisalmer

Dunes and scrub, home to the great Indian bustard.

Best time to visit

October to June; Ranthambore zones close in the monsoon.

Book Ranthambore weeks ahead, as slots sell out.

Timings, permits, ticket rules and dates change from year to year, so confirm the current details before you travel.
