From the Noise of Aligarh to the Wilderness of the Jungle: A Complete Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you weary of the gridlock, the noise, and the work stress in Aligarh?
It’s time to exchange the city lights for the sight of the Spotted Deer. It’s time to forget the skyline of Aligarh for the towering Sal trees of the forest.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a resident tour operator in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we specialize in managing travelers traveling specifically from Aligarh. We know that when you travel this far, you don't just want a "ride"—you want an adventure.
Whether you are thinking of a vacation excursion or catching a train to get to us, here is your ultimate guide to securing the best Jeep Safari.
The Journey: Getting to Us from Aligarh
If driving: The road from Aligarh is enjoyable but can be tiring. We propose starting at dawn to get to Ramnagar by mid-day.
If coming by Rail or Flight: Once you get to Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't worry about cabs. We can organize a pick-up to take you directly to your resort or the safari gate.
- Tip: The recommended itinerary for folks from Aligarh is usually a weekend package to boost your odds of seeing the Tiger.

A: The forest rule is 6 adults + 2 children (below 12 years) per Gypsy. If you are 8 adults, you will strictly need to take two Gypsies.
