How to Reach Ranthambore

Air :

Jaipur at 180 km is the nearest airport from Ranthambore wildlife sanctuary.

Rail :

Ranthambore National Park is around 11 km away from Sawai Madhopur railway station, that lies on the Delhi to Mumbai trunk route. This is by far the best way of reaching the place from Delhi, Jaipur or Kota. Best train from Delhi is Kota Janshatabdi Express - having 3 AC chair Car Coaches and reaches Sawai Madhopur at 6 pm. While returning catch the same Kota Janshatabdi Express at 7 am in the morning for Delhi. Another train from Delhi is the August Kranti Express- this is the cleanest, fastest and most punctual train; hygenic meals are served aboard the train. Train departs from Nizammudin railway station in Delhi; the Sawai Madhopur stop is a short one ( 2 minutes) so be ready when your station comes. For the return to Delhi, again catch the Rajdhani- this one is coming from Mumbai and also terminates at the Nizammudin station in Delhi. Again Sawai Madhopur is a short stop.

Roads :

A good network of buses connect Sawai Madhopur, the nearest town from Ranthambore to all the major cities within the state of Rajasthan. The frequency of direct services though is not very great. Mostly you have to hire a Car or a Taxi from Kota to Ranthambhore. Kota - Ranthambore is a Mega Highway and can be covered in 1.5 hours easily......wikipedia
