Early in the morning drive to the 16th century Amber Fort. Ascend on an elephant that transports you to the lofty fort, where you enjoy a tour of this Rajput extravaganza. Later in the afternoon visit the City Palace, which boasts an interesting museum of regal attire, Hawa Mahal (palace of winds) and Jantar Mantar, an ancient astronomical observatory. Evening you have the option of having dinner at an ethnic rural village or at the hilltop of Nahargarh which offers a breathtaking night view of Jaipur. Overnight at your hotel.

After having breakfast, check out from your hotel and drive to Ranthambhore National Park. Ranthambhore was once the private tiger reserve of the Maharaja of Jaipur and is home to the Royal Bengal Tigers! Spend the next three days amidst the lush greenery of the park. Once you arrive, check in to your resort. Later you may visit the Ranthambhore fort and Ganesha temple and the remaining day is completely at leisure.

The mornings and evenings are the best times of the day for spotting wildlife in the Ranthambhore National Park. The day will be utilized in taking out for morning and evening game drives in a shared Jeep (seats six people) and escorted by a naturalist who will brief you about the flora and fauna of the region. There will be many opportunities to take pictures of animals and birds during your time in the park.

After having your breakfast, checkout and drive to the erstwhile mughal citadel of Agra and stop by Abhaneri stepwells enroute. Visit the Harshat Mata Temple and India's deepest and largest stepwell, the impressive Chand Baori. Later continue your journey to Agra and visit the 16th-century Fatehpur Sikri - the abandoned citadel of Akbar enroute. Finally reach Agra and check in at your hotel for overnight stay.

Early morning at sunrise, visit the epitome of love – the world famous Taj Mahal! Built entirely of white marble, the Taj Mahal has no peers. Continuing the tour visit the grand Agra fort, which boasts some of India’s finest Mughal buildings behind its fortified walls.

Upon arrival, you will be received and transferred to the Bandhavgarh National Park, one of the most popular national parks in India. It is one of the best places in the country to spot tigers and is also home to a wide range of other wildlife, such as nilgai, sloth bears, jungle cats, wild boar, hyenas, and many species of birds. This compact park was originally the private game reserve of the Maharajas of Rewa, and the first white (albino) tiger was found here. It has a small hilltop fort inside a forested area, as it was the one-time capital of the Baghel dynasty. In the afternoon, you can relax after your train journey or you have an option to visit a hamlet in Bandhavgarh on a village walk. On this walk, you will meet locals and will see their simple homes, which are made up of clusters of mud cottages surrounded by lush, emerald-green forests, golden fields, and shimmering ponds. You can see the older members of the villages relaxing and enjoying hookahs, people busy with household duties, and animals being herded away to graze. The villages you pass through are a relaxing contrast to city life.

Set out for a morning and afternoon Jungle safari on a shared Jeep through the grasslands and forest of Bandhavgarh National Park. You'll be accompanied by a specialist guide to help you spot as much wildlife as possible. Keep a lookout for majestic tigers as well as leopards, jackals, Bengal foxes, langur monkeys, sloth bears, hyenas, jungle cats, leopards, and more than 250 species of birds. Return back to your hotel after the morning safari and have your breakfast and relax for the first half of the day. Post lunch, head out again to the Park for an afternoon safari. Your guide and naturalist will point out historical marks of human presence, such as caves, statues, temples, ponds, wells, and more as you drive. However, the most precious highlight will be getting a sight of the Royal Bengal Tiger sunbathing or strolling nearby.

Drive to your next wildlife destination, Kanha National Park for another chance to spot the Royal Bengal Tigers. One of India's best tiger reserves, Kanha National Park is divided into two sanctuaries: Hallon and Banjar. It is a particularly beautiful national park with open grassland areas, meadows, bamboo forests, and hills covered with tropical forests. You'll also have a high chance of spotting tigers with their favorite prey, chital and sambar deer. It is the only park in India to have barasingha, or swamp deer, which have been brought back from near extinction. After your drive, you'll have the rest of the day to relax and explore at your own pace. Alternatively, you have the option of going on a walk through the villages of Kanha. During this guided walk, you'll cross the Banjar River and will amble through a beautiful forest on animal trails to reach Chhapri village. Here you'll visit a local tribe that makes products to sell out of bamboo. You'll then climb a small hill to reach a sunset spot with a fantastic view over the forest.

The day will be utilized in having morning and afternoon jungle safaris. Your first game drive will be at dawn in a shared Jeep and see the sun streaking through the foggy forest as you drive and listen to the wildlife waking up. Apart from tigers, keep your eyes peeled for leopards, Indian bison, sambar deer, blackbuck, and wild dogs. Return back to the hotel. After lunch, you will go on another game drive in the hotter afternoon temperatures. This is prime time to spot animals looking for drinking water in nearby water bodies. The landscape here, with grasslands, wetlands, forests, and meadows, has inspired Rudyard Kipling's 'The Jungle Book'

Morning drive to Nagpur Airport to board the flight to New Delhi and upon arrival, take an internal shuttle transfer to International terminal for your flight back home [The Tour Ends]
