Short answer: canter seats from ₹2,200 per person are available now for Indian nationals, on the current quota (from ₹2,200) and the premium quota (from ₹3,200). Advance-quota seats cost ₹1,700 (canter) and ₹2,500 (gypsy), but they are sold out for most upcoming dates; send your date and we check. For a last-minute jeep, book a premium-quota gypsy seat from ₹5,500 per person, a whole premium gypsy at ₹36,000, or a tatkal gypsy from ₹36,000 for the whole six-seat vehicle. Foreign nationals pay more because the Forest Department charges them a higher fee. Every price is all-in: permit, vehicle and guide.
Per safari, all-in: permit, vehicle and guide. Seats: zones 6–10, core zones 1–5, or your choice of zone 2, 3 or 4. A whole jeep in the first column can be any zone 1–10. Groups with any foreign national pay the foreign price for a whole jeep. For a group, we always quote the cheaper of separate seats or a whole jeep.

There is no current quota for gypsy seats: the Forest Department discontinued it in October 2022. Advance seats open about 120 days ahead in seasonal windows, so once they are gone, a jeep at short notice comes from the premium quota (from ₹5,500 per seat or ₹36,000 for the whole gypsy) or the tatkal quota (from ₹36,000 for the whole gypsy).
Not sure which vehicle to pick? A jeep and a gypsy are the same open 4×4; jeep (gypsy) vs canter, compared. The canter is the seat you can book right now, and the easiest at short notice: canter safari details.
The four package tiers start at ₹7,999 (Economic), ₹13,499 (Standard), ₹21,999 (Luxury) and ₹54,999 (Ultra Luxury) per couple per night, at Indian-national safari fares. See what each package includes. If you only want a room, prices are on WhatsApp; browse Ranthambore hotels and resorts.
Every seat is a permit from the Rajasthan Forest Department. Its fee is the same whoever you book through. Our price adds the vehicle, guide and our booking service on top. Booking direct on the official portal is cheaper, and we say so openly.
| Seat (advance quota) | Department fee on the portal | Our all-in price |
|---|---|---|
| Canter seat, Indian national | about ₹990 | ₹1,700 |
| Gypsy seat, Indian national | about ₹1,610 | ₹2,500 |
| Canter seat, foreign national | about ₹2,400 | ₹3,500 |
| Gypsy seat, foreign national | about ₹3,025 | ₹4,000 |
Department fees are as shown on the official portal on 13 October 2026, rounded. The difference pays for securing the seat, including sold-out and short-notice dates, WhatsApp support from 7am to 10pm, pickup coordination, and a full refund if the permit is not issued. Your quote shows the department's share and our service charge separately.
If your date shows seats and you are happy with the portal, book direct. Here is when the official site makes more sense, and when we do. For what a permit actually covers, read Ranthambore tickets explained.

More on the release windows: Ranthambore safari sold out? What to do and the release calendar.
Every guest who occupies a seat needs a permit and a photo ID, children included. Tell us each child's age and we quote the exact price for your group.
Each guest needs the original government photo ID used on the permit. For Indians that is Aadhaar, passport, voter ID, PAN or driving licence. Foreign nationals need their passport. Screenshots and phone photos are not accepted.
We ask for names and ID numbers only when we book the permit, never through this website. Visiting from abroad? See Ranthambore safari for foreign nationals.
Ranthambore Fort, inside the reserve, has its own access and does not need a safari permit.
