Use Ranthambhore Tours & Travels
The only way to visit the Ranthambhore National Park is via Indian government-run jeep safaris. You book these safaris through a variety of marketers, and as I mention in my warnings, you'd best book your safaris well ahead of time. The number of visitors to the park is strictly regulated, and as you'd guess - it's popular.
The company that was involved in our booking of jeep safaris was Ranthambhore Travel and Tours. They were selected by Navin Pandey and Gatik Eventures of New Delhi, the company and man that I selected to help me put together the arrangements for our trip. The fellow at Ranthambhore that we worked with personally in Sawai Madhopur was a fellow named Balraj. (I'm sorry, I didn't get his surname)
If you are booking your safaris, I'd suggest that you get in touch with this company, they'll take good care of you. They are dependable and will do everything possible to insure that you get into smaller jeeps, rather than the larger group safaris. (There's never a guarantee, as the government makes the calls. But Ranthambhore Tours and Travel seem to do a good job of getting small jeeps, which are nice)
