The original land was the property of the Jaipur Maharajah, and this was his personal hunting ground. Since then, the Indians have realized that the eco-green tourism trade is much more lucrative. We'll have three shots at trying to find Tigers - each safari lasting about 3-4 hours each time. The first trip will be in the afternoon on an open truck that holds about 30 people. And then the last two trips - one in the morning and one in the afternoon will be in a smaller Jeep with just the four of us, a guide, and a driver.
