The search for tigers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ranthambore National Park is famous for Tigers. Apparently there are now more than 60 tigers in the park. The number is becoming so large that there is talk or relocating some of the tigers to other parks in this area. Since tigers are territorial you can only have so many tigers on one area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting there<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The best way to get here is to take a train to Sawai Madhopur station. Since you cannot stay in the park, this town is the closest place to stay. It’s quite small and very peaceful comparing to large Indian cities like Delhi and Agra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike these people, I would suggest that you get a reserved seat<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

These cows may be afraid of missing the train.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Do you actually see tigers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

From what I have been told – yes. However, so far I have not been fortunate. I have seen deer, lots of birds, crocodiles, and plenty of monkeys. Of course, you can see monkeys without going into the park too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spotted deer. Apparently a favourite food for Tigers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Since some of these birds get so close it makes me think that the drivers may feed them from time to time<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Morning Safari<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It was quite chilly for the early morning safari. I would suggest wearing layers so that you can take clothes off if it gets too warm. The hotel provided me with a blanket which was handy. There are two options for a tour – jeeps which hold up to 6 people (although mine only had 4) and canters (basically I big flat bed truck with seats) which seems to hold 20+ people. I took the jeep and it was nice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
