It's really fun to take the safari ride on 4WD inside the park. You can hire these four wheel drive vehicles with a driver for between Rs. 600 and Rs. 1000 for one trip consisting of around 3 hours.
What is really nice about this "safari" is that though you may not get to see the tiger in all its glory, you will definitely see a multitude of other fauna.
There are all manner of ungulates from the spectacular Sambhar deer to the Nilghai, the largest ungulate in the world. You will see ospreys and seagulls, which leave you wondering whether you really are in the desert! At the right time of the year, you may also see some Siberian Cranes, here for the winter.

It is really worth walking up to the top of the fort in the park between morning and afternoon drives. You can get a great view of the park from there and the forts ruins and temples are great to walk around!

Ranthambhore is perfect Leopard country, I reckon there must be more Leopards than Tigers! We didn't see one though. Also the Sloth Bear is common at the right season.. we didn't see one of these either!! See what I mean about wildlife being unpredictable!
There are other animals too, spotted deer, antelope, crocodiles, monkies, mongoose, wild boar, wild dog etc... we saw some of the animals mentioned!

As with all wildlife encounters nothing is certain, I suggest you take at least 4 days of morning and afternoon drives to guarantee you see a Tiger, otherwise you could dissappointed. Also book with a good company, even the big tour companies promise private jeep rides, but when you get to Ranthambhore many people find that they do not have a private jeep drive. The company we used Tigertrails is the only reliable company on this issue!
We were extremely lucky and saw a Tiger on our first drive in the park. The guide and driver look for pug marks in the tracks, we hear a deer making a warning call, then a monkey warning call.... we drive to where we hear the commotion... and there is the king of beasts!

When visiting Ranthambhore National Park on a game drive keep an eye out for the second largest Banyan tree in India located in the grounds of Jogi Mahal to South East of Padam Talao lake.
