One jeep, and a lot of phone calls
Ranthambore Ticket began in 2005 because travellers kept asking the same question and nobody local was answering it properly: which zone is realistic for a first visit, and how do I actually get a permit without losing three days to a government portal? Dilkhush Saini grew up in Sherpur Khilchipur, a few kilometres from the park, and started helping people file permits in the afternoons between other work.
It was never a big operation, and that is the point. The permit rules change often — closure days, seasonal timings, seat allocations — and a business that files permits every single day notices those changes weeks before a website does. That knowledge is the whole product. We do not sell seats we do not have, and we do not quote a price and move it later.
Twenty years on, most of our guests still arrive through a guest's recommendation or a neighbour's cousin. We handle a few hundred safaris a season across both vehicles, and every one of them is confirmed by a person who has driven those tracks.
Who we are
A private booking facilitator. We are not the Forest Department and we do not sell permits directly — we file them on your behalf and charge for that.
Talk to us first
If you are not sure which vehicle or how many safaris you need, ring before you pay. We would rather correct a plan than take money for the wrong one.
