Are your children in that phase of their lives where animals are all they want to look at on Youtube or on the TV? Well, then you have to take a drive to the Jhalana Leopard Safari, stationed close to the Jaipur airport! Even without children, there is nothing as serene as driving through the paths here and there's always a high probability of a random brute popping up while on your way.

The leopard is otherwise known to be a shy cat but here since it is the apex predator, it moves around confidently through the jungle and therefore is easier to spot. This experience is as authentic as actually living in the jungle and of course, you've gotta keep your camera ready for these much-awaited yet fleeting moments!

Peacocks & whatnot!
