Questions from overseas visitors

How much does a Ranthambore safari cost for foreigners?

Through us, all-in: a current-quota canter seat, available now, is from ₹4,500 (about €46, £40 or US$53) and a premium canter seat from ₹5,500 (about €56). On the advance quota, sold out for most upcoming dates, a canter seat is ₹3,500 (about €36) and a gypsy seat ₹4,000 (about €41). A premium-quota gypsy seat is from ₹8,000 (about €82). A whole private gypsy is ₹32,999 (about €337), a whole premium gypsy ₹46,000 (about €472) and a tatkal gypsy from ₹50,000 per vehicle (about €513). The Forest Department charges foreign nationals a higher permit fee than Indian residents, which is why these differ from our Indian prices.

What documents do I need?

Your passport. The permit is issued against each guest’s passport number and name, and the original passport is checked at the gate. Children need their own passport details on the permit.

How do I pay from abroad?

You pay only after we confirm availability. We send a payment link that accepts international cards; details are shared on WhatsApp or email at confirmation.

Do you speak English?

Yes. All WhatsApp, phone and email replies are in English, 7am to 10pm Indian time. Short messages in French, German, Spanish, Italian or Dutch are welcome and we answer in English; we also have guides in those languages.

How do I get to Ranthambore from Delhi or Jaipur?

By train to Sawai Madhopur Junction on the Delhi–Mumbai line: about 4.5 hours from Delhi, 2 hours from Jaipur. The nearest airport is Jaipur, about 160 km. Arrive the evening before a morning safari.

Is a private jeep worth it?

For photographers and couples who want the vehicle to themselves, yes: ₹32,999 for six seats, with zone preference requested and a naturalist guide. For most visitors two shared gypsy seats at ₹4,000 each are the better value when advance seats are open; they are sold out for most upcoming dates, and a canter seat from ₹4,500 is what is available now.
