Whether it's a thrilling safari, a serene nature walk, or a visit to a local village, each experience is thoughtfully crafted to leave you with lasting memories of Rajasthan’s rich culture and natural beauty. With expert guides and insider knowledge, we’re here to ensure that your time at Nivaās is not just a visit, but a journey into the heart of this remarkable region.
For a truly enriching experience at Nivaas, we recommend a 3-night stay to fully immerse yourself in the beauty of Ranthambhore. On your first day, settle into the tranquil surroundings and take some time to relax before enjoying a serene dinner by the pool, where the natural ambiance sets the tone for your stay. The following day, venture into the wilderness with both a morning and afternoon safari, giving you two opportunities to witness the incredible wildlife of Ranthambhore National Park. From the majestic Bengal tigers to the vibrant birdlife, each safari offers a new perspective of the park’s ecosystem. On your third day, step back in time with a visit to the historic Ranthambhore Fort in the morning, where the sweeping views and ancient ruins provide a fascinating contrast to the jungle. In the evening, unwind by the peaceful waters of Surwal Lake, a haven for birdwatchers, as you take in the sights and sounds of the local birdlife. On your final morning, enjoy one last safari before departing, leaving with memories of both adventure and tranquility.
