I first got in touch with Janette about this trip about 18 months before we left and she was nothing but helpful despite my never ending list of questions! When the day finally came that we arrived in Delhi we were met by Jakir who expertly drove us through the mad Delhi traffic and safely down to Ranthambore to our hotel.
The Ranthambore Regency is a beautiful hotel and screams tiger! Gorgeous pictures on the wall to gaze at and get you excited for what’s to come! The food in the hotel was spectacular! I asked if I could move in…if only! Now the safaris…. incredible! I loved every single second and the wildlife was far more diverse than I naively thought! Ash was lovely and his knowledge of the reserve is unrivalled. Truly the best guide you could ask for.
We saw our first wild Tiger, Arrowhead, on the first day in the afternoon. I can’t explain the feeling when I first lay eyes on her. Such beauty! And to top it off we also saw her young cubs! Over the course of the week we saw lots of other incredible wildlife including owls, leopards, lizards, fruit bats, bee-eaters as well as so much more! I ended up buying a photographic field guide to help me identify what I’d seen when I got home as there was so much! Janette is truly lovely and a joy to spend time with. Her trip is a must and I would whole heartedly recommend it to anybody that wants to experience India’s wildlife and see it’s beautiful Tigers.
Dean then baited all the stations not only around the pool but also other “props” nearby for the larger birds. It was a real treat to see Bullfinches, Jays, a family of Woodpeckers plus all the small birds you would expect to see around garden feeders but in a natural setting. A photographers paradise!
The morning flew by and we took a break to photograph the Harvest Mice. We were impressed with the way Dean presented the mice. He never handled them and they were free to climb up the various props provided. Green hedges or a buttercup meadow made for a perfect background.
The afternoon was spent in the hide again with freshly baited stations. Needless to say the time flew by and we have come home with some great memories and lovely photographs. Thank you Dean for making our day such an enjoyable one and Janette too for organising my birthday treat at such short notice. We can highly recommend this experience day and look forward to repeating it ourselves.
We came back with 7,500 images which we are currently sorting and editing them and they will be a permanent reminder of probably our best holiday ever. We are already booking two more trips with Natural Wonders Photography.
