6 Days Rajasthan Tiger & Wildlife Safari by Private Car
Escape the crowded cities and answer the call of the wild with our exclusive Rajasthan Wildlife Tour by private car and driver. While Rajasthan is globally celebrated for its majestic forts and royal palaces, it also harbors some of India's most thrilling and diverse wildlife sanctuaries. This exhilarating 6-day road trip is custom-designed for nature lovers, bird watchers, and wildlife photographers eager to spot the elusive Royal Bengal Tiger in its natural habitat.
This carefully routed wilderness circuit takes you through the state’s premier national parks. Starting from Jaipur, you will drive to the forested valleys of Sariska Tiger Reserve, famous for its leopards and relocated tigers. Next, you will witness a world-class avian spectacle at Keoladeo National Park in Bharatpur (a UNESCO World Heritage site hosting thousands of migratory birds). Finally, the journey peaks at the legendary Ranthambore National Park, globally renowned as one of the best places on earth to photograph wild tigers against a backdrop of ancient jungle ruins.
A multi-day wildlife expedition requires early morning wake-up calls, traversing dusty rural roads, and spending hours in open safari jeeps. Having a dedicated private car and a professional driver waiting for you at the safari gates is not just a luxury—it is a necessity. It ensures you have a clean, air-conditioned sanctuary to relax and recharge as you travel seamlessly between the jungles.
We provide a top-of-the-line fleet of sedans and SUVs, ensuring a smooth ride on bumpy rural highways. Our experienced drivers know the exact locations of the safari boarding points, the best times to travel between parks, and where to find clean rest stops. With transparent pricing covering all transportation logistics, tolls, and taxes, you can focus entirely on tracking pugmarks and capturing the perfect wildlife shot.

Why Choose a Private Car for a Wildlife Trip?
Wildlife enthusiasts know that timing is everything. Missing a safari because of delayed public transport can ruin a trip. Here is why our private car service is highly recommended for jungle circuits:
- Dust-Free Comfort: Open jungle safaris are dusty and exhausting. Returning to an impeccably clean, air-conditioned SUV is the ultimate relief before heading to your next destination.
- Punctuality for Safaris: Safari gates close strictly on time. Our drivers plan the highway driving perfectly to ensure you reach your hotel and the boarding gates with time to spare.
- Luggage Safety: While you are deep in the jungle for 3-4 hours, your heavy luggage and extra camera gear remain safely locked in the trunk of your private car.
- Rural Highway Expertise: The roads connecting Sariska, Bharatpur, and Ranthambore pass through dense rural areas. Our drivers are highly experienced in navigating these specific routes safely.

6 Days Rajasthan Wildlife Tour Itinerary (Day-by-Day Plan)
This itinerary is specifically paced around the mandatory morning and afternoon safari slots. Since this is a private car rental package, we synchronize our driving times with your pre-booked safari schedules to ensure a completely stress-free experience.
-
Day 1
Arrival in Jaipur & Drive to Sariska (Approx. 110 km / 2.5 hours)
Your wildlife adventure begins! Your private driver will welcome you at the Jaipur International Airport or Railway Station. Once your luggage is loaded, you will immediately hit the highway heading towards Alwar to reach the Sariska Tiger Reserve.
Nestled in the Aravalli hills, Sariska is a beautiful mix of scrub-thorn arid forests and rocky landscapes. Upon arrival, check into your jungle resort. Enjoy a relaxed afternoon, acclimate to the peaceful forest environment, and prepare your camera gear for tomorrow's tracking.
-
Day 2
Sariska Safari & Drive to Bharatpur (Approx. 120 km / 3 hours)
Wake up before dawn for an exhilarating Morning Jeep Safari in Sariska. Accompanied by a forest guide, you will track the reserve's tiger population, leopards, striped hyenas, and the majestic Sambar deer. The park is also home to the ancient ruins of the Kankwadi Fort, adding a unique historical touch to your safari.
After returning to your resort for a hearty breakfast and check-out, your driver will navigate the scenic route towards Bharatpur. You will arrive by late afternoon. Check into your hotel and enjoy a quiet evening.
-
Day 3
Keoladeo National Park & Drive to Ranthambore (Approx. 240 km / 5 hours)
Today is a paradise for bird lovers. Head early to Keoladeo National Park (Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary). Unlike tiger reserves, here you explore the wetlands via a cycle-rickshaw, bicycle, or on foot. This UNESCO site hosts over 370 species of birds, including massive flocks of migratory waterfowl, pelicans, and Siberian cranes during the winter.
Around noon, you will depart Bharatpur and embark on the longest drive of your trip towards Sawai Madhopur, the gateway to Ranthambore National Park. The 5-hour drive takes you through authentic Rajasthani countryside. Check into your wildlife resort upon arrival and relax.
-
Day 4
Ranthambore: The Realm of the Tiger
Today is fully dedicated to tracking the apex predator. Ranthambore is world-famous for its diurnal tigers, making daytime sightings highly probable. You will embark on a Morning Safari (approx. 6:30 AM). The terrain here is dramatic, featuring dry deciduous forests, large lakes, and the towering 10th-century Ranthambore Fort.
Return to your hotel for lunch and a brief rest during the hottest part of the day. Later, head out for your Afternoon Safari (approx. 2:30 PM) in a different zone of the park. Keep your eyes peeled for crocodiles, sloth bears, wild boars, and of course, the Royal Bengal Tiger.
-
Day 5
Optional Safari & Ranthambore Fort
For hardcore wildlife enthusiasts, you have the option to book a third safari this morning to maximize your chances of a spectacular tiger sighting. Alternatively, you can choose to hike up to the historic Ranthambore Fort.
Located inside the park, the fort offers breathtaking panoramic views of the jungle canopy and the Padam Talao lake below. It is also an excellent spot to photograph large groups of Langur monkeys and soaring eagles. Spend your final evening relaxing by the campfire at your resort, sharing stories of your jungle encounters.
-
Day 6
Ranthambore to Jaipur & Final Departure (Approx. 160 km / 3.5 hours)
After breakfast, it is time to leave the wilderness behind. Your driver will pack your luggage and begin the smooth 3.5-hour highway drive back to the Pink City of Jaipur.
Depending on your departure schedule, you may have time to stop for a traditional Rajasthani lunch or buy some local handicrafts. Your driver will safely drop you off at the Jaipur International Airport, Railway Station, or your chosen hotel, concluding an unforgettable wildlife expedition.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does this package include the Safari tickets?
No. This package includes only your Private Car, Driver, Tolls, and Taxes for traveling between the cities and hotels. Safari tickets (for Jeeps or Canters) must be booked online well in advance directly through the official Rajasthan Forest Department website, as they require your personal ID proofs (Passport/Aadhaar) and sell out months in advance.
2. What is the best time for a Rajasthan Wildlife Tour?
The best time to visit is from October to April. The weather is pleasant for traveling, and migratory birds arrive in Bharatpur during the winter. For the absolute best chances of spotting tigers, the hotter months of April and May are ideal, as animals frequent the shrinking waterholes, though the heat can be intense.
3. Are the National Parks open during the monsoon?
No. The core zones of Ranthambore and Sariska are closed to the public from July 1st to September 30th every year due to the monsoon season and animal mating periods. Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary remains open, but a full wildlife circuit is not possible during these months.
4. What kind of vehicles do you provide?
Since this tour involves a fair amount of highway driving, we recommend our comfortable Sedans (Dzire/Etios) for 1-2 passengers. For larger groups or those carrying extensive photography equipment, our spacious SUVs (Toyota Innova or Innova Crysta) are the perfect choice for maximum legroom and trunk space.
5. Will the driver take us inside the jungle?
No, private commercial taxis are not allowed inside the core zones of the national parks. Your driver will drop you at the designated Safari Boarding Points or your resort, where you will transfer to the official Forest Department open-top Gypsy (Jeep) or Canter for your jungle tracking.
6. Do we have to pay for the driver's food and stay?
You do not need to worry about the driver. The package cost includes the driver's daily allowance, which covers his meals and accommodation at local roadside facilities while you are enjoying your wildlife resort.
7. Can we customize this itinerary?
Yes, the itinerary is 100% customizable. If you want to skip Sariska and add Jawai (famous for Leopards) or end the trip in Agra instead of Jaipur, just let our team know. We will design the perfect route for you.
8. What should we pack for the safaris?
Pack dull, earth-toned clothing (greens, browns, khakis) to blend into the forest. Bright colors distract the animals. Essential items: Original ID proof (mandatory for park entry), sunglasses, a wide-brimmed hat, sunscreen, and binoculars. If traveling in winter (Nov-Feb), bring heavy jackets and gloves, as open jeeps are freezing in the early mornings.

What Our Travelers Say
Mark & Sophie
Sydney, Australia"We booked an Innova for this 6-day wildlife tour and it was worth every penny. Safari drives leave you exhausted and covered in dust, so getting back into a pristine, cool AC car was heaven. Our driver, Vikram, was always exactly on time for our safari drop-offs. We saw three tigers in Ranthambore!"
The Kapoor Family
New Delhi, India"Brilliant service. The drive from Bharatpur to Ranthambore is quite long, but the driver made it very comfortable for my elderly parents. He drove safely, avoided the major potholes, and stopped at very clean highway restaurants. The pricing was completely transparent."
Oliver Evans
London, UK"As a wildlife photographer, I carry a lot of heavy, expensive gear. I needed a private car to ensure my equipment was safe while I was switching between jeeps and walking tours in Bharatpur. The driver was completely trustworthy and guarded the car well. Highly recommend this agency for serious photographers."
Priya Menon
Bangalore, India"The entire itinerary was perfectly paced. I loved that the driver knew exactly which gate we needed to be at in Ranthambore (the park is huge and confusing). No stress at all, just pure enjoyment of nature. Will definitely book with them again for my next trip."
