Ranthambore is a really stunning destination and each zone offers something new. The main stars were, of course, the tigers and they did not disappoint. Ash and Sajid were amazing, their tracking was exceptional and they knew exactly where to place us to ensure that the photographic conditions were the best available. They were an integral part of this trip and an absolute delight to get to know. We had a number of tiger sightings, Arrowhead on the first day blew me away and then seeing Riddhi and her cubs was a real treat. Noorie was so beautiful and then there was Ganesh, who was just stunning. The tigers, whilst the undisputed stars of the show, were by no means the only reason to go. There is so much wildlife to see and photograph. I would go back in a heart beat. As always with Janette the hotel that you stay in was wonderful, the staff really could not do more for you and it was a lovely place to relax between safaris. Finally, Janette was, as always, excellent in every way. The whole trip was so well organised and Janette really could not do more for you. As always, she was on hand to provide advice when needed and I came away with yet more tips and tricks in lightroom. As well as that, I have honestly not laughed as much for ages. A totally fabulous trip in every way. I will definitely be returning.
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.
There is the opportunity to spend the night in 3 professional hides, which, while rather snug and basic, are well worth it as you get to see the bears in a variety of backdrops. In addition to the photographic opportunities, which are numerous, you also get the benefit of Janette’s considerable experience. I have been on a number of photography holidays/courses and I can honestly say I have never learnt so much especially in relation to editing in Lightroom.
Janette tailors her approach effortlessly to the experience of each member of the group and is always on hand to give advice and tips. She has an open and encouraging style, which in my experience is not always the case with tour leaders on these types of holidays. I came back with some stunning photographs, an increased confidence in using Lightroom and some truly wonderful memories.
