Ranthambore Safari

Some pictures from our safari in Ranthambore National Park. We only had about 2 hours in the park but we were lucky enough to see some incredible wildlife in that short time.

After about an hour in the park scanning for tigers our driver stopped to speak to the driver of another safari vehicle. Following a short conversation in Hindi our driver and guide exchanged a knowing glance and soon we were racing along the dusty road. A tiger had been spotted resting in the park. We approached the location and waited for a minute or two as another safari truck pulled away from the spot the tiger was located. We moved up to have a look. The tiger was massive our guide estimated it was over 600lbs!

Word of the tiger had travelled fast and there were soon many vehicles queued up to see it. In the end, we only had about a minute with the tiger in view before we had to give up our spot, but it was pretty special to see such a powerful animal up close.
