From the Crowd of Ahmedabad to the Wilderness of the Jungle: Your Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you tired of the gridlock, the din, and the work stress in Ahmedabad?
It’s time to swap the honking cars for the chirping of the Spotted Deer. It’s time to forget the skyline of Ahmedabad for the majestic Sal trees of Uttarakhand.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a local travel agency in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we specialize in serving guests coming specifically from Ahmedabad. We get it that when you travel this far, you don't just want a "drive"—you want an adventure.
Whether you are thinking of a weekend excursion or catching a train to get to us, here is your ultimate guide to securing the ideal Jeep Safari.
The Route: Getting to Us from Ahmedabad
If coming by car: The drive from Ahmedabad is beautiful but can be long. We propose leaving early in the morning to reach Ramnagar by mid-day.
If taking a Train or Flight: Once you arrive at Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't bother about local transport. We can schedule a car to take you directly to your resort or the jungle entry.
- Tip: The best itinerary for folks from Ahmedabad is usually a weekend tour to maximize your chances of spotting the Tiger.

Common Questions for Ahmedabad Travelers
Q: Can I drive my personal vehicle (SUV/Sedan) inside the park?
A: No. Your own cars are not permitted in the main zones (Bijrani, Dhikala, etc.) for security. You must move into our registered Gypsy.
Q: We are a group of 8 people from Ahmedabad. Can we fit in one Jeep?
A: The legal limit is 6 adults + 2 children (below 12 years) per Gypsy. If you are 8 adults, you will definitely need to take two Gypsies.
Q: How far in advance should we reserve?
A: Since you are driving all the way from Ahmedabad, you cannot chance "walk-in" bookings. Permits get booked weeks in advance. We suggest booking at least 30 days prior to your trip.
Q: Is it safe for families?
A: 100%. Jim Corbett is one of the most secure tourist destinations in India. Our staff are vetted professionals who focus on your safety.
