Private safari stay — 3 jeep safaris in different zones · Sawai Madhopur pick-up
This short safari stay is built around one thing: giving you three real chances to see a wild Bengal tiger. You arrive at Sawai Madhopur (by train from Delhi or Jaipur, or with our car), check in near the park and head straight out on your first afternoon safari.
On day two you do a morning and an afternoon safari. We apply for a different zone each time, so you explore more of the forest — lakes, old ruins and dry deciduous jungle — with an experienced naturalist who knows where the tigers have been seen recently.
Ranthambore is a wild forest, not a zoo. More safaris in different zones give you a much better chance. Core zones 1–5 are closed from 1 July to 30 September every year (monsoon), and each zone has one weekly closing day.
Day-by-day plan — safari times change with the season, and zones are allotted by the Forest Department.
Arrival: our driver meets you at Sawai Madhopur railway station (or brings you from Jaipur / Delhi on request) and drops you at your hotel near the park.
Lunch and a short rest, then your first afternoon jeep safari in the zone allotted by the Forest Department.
Overnight stay at your hotel near Ranthambore National Park.
Morning safari: your open gypsy picks you up from the hotel around sunrise. With your naturalist, you track tigers, leopards and sloth bears by alarm calls and pugmarks in the allotted zone (about 3.5 hours).
Back to the hotel for breakfast, rest and lunch.
Afternoon safari: after lunch and a rest, the second safari of the day heads into a different zone (about 3.5 hours), returning around sunset.
Departure: after the safari, our driver drops you at Sawai Madhopur station or continues to Jaipur / Delhi on request.

These photos show the car models we use. Every car is cleaned before your trip, well maintained and driven by a professional, uniformed driver. You get the model you book (for example, an Innova Crysta), though the exact vehicle — colour or number plate — may differ. See all our vehicles
An experienced local naturalist rides with you on every safari to track tigers by alarm calls and pugmarks. For city sightseeing, an approved tour guide joins you. Choose from 9 languages:
Safari permits are issued in your name with your passport number — carry the same original passport to the park gate.
Morning safaris start around sunrise (6:00–7:00 AM). Your gypsy or canter picks you up from the hotel about 15–30 minutes before.
Neutral colours (khaki, olive, beige). Winter mornings are cold in an open jeep — bring a warm jacket, cap and gloves from November to February.
A zoom lens (200 mm+) and binoculars make a big difference. Still cameras are included in the permit fee.
Stay inside the vehicle, keep quiet, no feeding animals, no plastic, no smoking. Drivers must stay on the allotted route.
Children are welcome on safaris — tell us their ages, as permits are needed for all passengers.
Three jeep safaris: one on the afternoon of Day 1 and a morning and an afternoon safari on Day 2, each requested in a different zone.
Sawai Madhopur, the town next to the park, is on the main Delhi–Mumbai railway line, about 5 hours by train from Delhi and 2–3 hours from Jaipur. We pick you up at the station, or send a private car from Jaipur or Delhi at extra cost.
It gives you three chances, which is a good start. If seeing a tiger is the main goal of your trip, our 3-day package with four safaris gives you a better chance.
Yes. Every tour is private — only you and your group, with your own car, driver and guide. Timings can be adjusted to your pace.
No one can honestly guarantee it — Ranthambore is a wild forest, not a zoo. Your chances improve a lot with 3–4 safaris in different zones, mostly in the mornings, and in the drier months (March–June) when tigers come to the lakes. That is why our packages include several safaris.
A gypsy (open jeep, 6 guests) is quieter, moves faster and gives better photo angles, so we recommend it. A canter (open bus, about 20 guests) is cheaper and easier to get at short notice.
You can request zones, but the Forest Department allots zones and vehicles. We apply early and request different core zones for each safari to maximise your chances.
Foreign guests need their passport number and nationality when we book, and must carry the same original passport to the park gate. Indian guests need a government photo ID such as Aadhaar.
All our guides are approved, professional tour guides. English is standard, and Spanish, French, German, Italian, Russian, Japanese, Portuguese and Chinese speaking guides are available on request.
Yes — we are listed on Tripadvisor (5.0 from 166 reviews) and you can book us there. Booking direct with us is usually better: there is nothing to pay for a quote, no booking fees, and you can book now and pay later. You talk to our team directly on WhatsApp, phone or email, so you get quicker answers and better coordination, and we can customise the tour — dates, cities, hotels and pace — while Tripadvisor listings are fixed packages.

Excellent tour with lots of memories to take home. Great organisation and guide
Based on my experience Rosa Travel is a serious and honest tour provider with excellent customer service. They responded fast and very honest about all my enquiries and extra wishes before the trip and incorporated all. The car was very clean and in very good condition and the driver also very punctual, reliable and trustworthy. Mr Mohsin, my tour guide was excellent, with local knowledge that only someone who has been doing this tour for almost every day in the past 10 years can have. Needless to say that I did not even see a queue. He also had a great knowledge of the whole Indian history and its transformation into modern society…

Warm, insightful and friendly guide! Highly recommend!
Our guide Zameer was incredible! He shared so many interesting facts about the history, architecture, and city of Agra and the surrounding area. But even more important that his knowledge, was his welcoming and warm demeanor. Zameer made our group feel welcome and like friends; he was kind, shared jokes and stories, and made our entire experience a complete delight. I cannot recommend him more!

Insightful, efficient, and professional
This was one of if not the best tours I've been on in over 30 years of my life. Our guide Zameer was extremely knowledgeable and it was clear he had a passion for history. He shared stories, insight, and was able to answer almost all the questions the group had. If he didn't know, he didn't make things up like most tour guides. This was a 10/10 experience. Highly recommend a tour with Zameer.

Great tour of Delhi-Mathura Vrindavan-Agra-Fatehpur Sikiri-Delhi
Great Trip! I went 4D3N trip with my family in December 2022 to Mathura-Vrindavan-Agra-Fatehpur Sikiri-Delhi. The trip was excellently planned by Faisal Siddiqui and not at all tiring. The driver Mr Khemchand Sharma ji was outstanding he was on-time in the entire trip, professional, safe and caring. Every place we had guided tours and everyone is professional, friendly and knowledgeable about the history of the places. The trip to Taj Mahal was one of the great unique experiences that we had. Mr Zameer Khan as our tour guide to Taj Mahal has enhanced the experience of Taj with his professionalism, and knowledge of Taj. I highly recommend Zameer's services…

Only one you want to show you Agra
Review of our guide Zamir. It felt like became our friend in such a short period of time. He was extremely knowledgeable, honest, kind with his time, took us everywhere we wanted to go. Other guides have been pushy, and can sometimes try to hustle tourists, Zamir rather shared our experience with us, and helped Shepard us through Agra and gave us the best areas for pictures, foods, and momentos for the trip. If I come back or have relatives going to the area, they are getting the high recommendation to ask for Zamir.

An activity-filled day
We certainly got more than we expected with this tour! The day started when we got picked up from outside our accommodation in South Delhi by our driver in a comfortable SUV at 6am and we got on the road to Agra. The SUV was stocked with bottled water and snacks. Because of the fog we couldn't see a lot but there wasn't much traffic either…

Epic tour to Taj Mahal
Very comfortable vehicle and safe driving. Drivers English wasn't always able to be understood although this didn't alter the overall experience. Stopped for breakfast at place where food was nice but place a little average. Tour guide who showed us around Taj Mahal and Agra Fort was awesome - great English, got us through queues quickly and took great photos. Didn't like going to marble shop and declined another selling opportunity. Yummy lunch at restaurant on way home.
