All of these reserves have some very rare and beautiful flora and fauna. Most importantly, one can see the magnificent Indian Tiger on a wildlife tour to Rajasthan.

Ranthambhore National Park :
The Ranthambhore National Park, Rajasthan, India is predominantly famous for its tigers. The park is a ideal spot with photographer for taking the snapshots of tigers and other wildlife attractions. The park is rich in its flora and fauna. There are approximately 300 trees, 50 aquatic plants, 265 birds, 15 reptiles, and 30 mammals inside the forest.

Sariska National Park :
Sariska National Park can be visited year round except during the rainy season (July/August) when the animals move to higher grounds. Sariska is possibly one of India's most renowned wildlife parks. A peculiar characteristic of the park is that one comes across a plethora of speed breakers both within and out side the park premises. They have been built in order to check the velocity of vehicles which otherwise have the habit of speeding down the tracks. There have been instances in the past when the speeding vehicles have over run the animals that strayed onto the track.

Sariska's topography is generally hilly. As one goes deeper inside the forest, the hills keep growing on you. As far as water bodies and wetland areas are concerned, they are few and far between. To mitigate these lacunae of water bodies, the park authorities have built artificial reservoirs at strategic places which provide welcome relief to the resident animals of Sariska during the scorching summer months.

Keoladeo National Park is situated in the town of Bharatpur in the north Indian state of Rajasthan, about 55 kms from the Agra - the city of Taj.
