From the Hustle of Auraiya to the Call of the Jungle: A Complete Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you tired of the traffic, the noise, and the routine in Auraiya?
It’s time to swap the city lights for the chirping of the Wild. It’s time to leave behind the buildings of Auraiya for the towering Sal trees of Jim Corbett.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a locally-based safari planner in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we focus in welcoming visitors visiting specifically from Auraiya. We get it that when you travel this far, you don't just want a "ride"—you want an experience.
Whether you are planning a vacation getaway or catching a transport to reach us, here is your complete guide to securing the perfect Jeep Safari.
The Drive: Reaching Us from Auraiya
If road tripping: The route from Auraiya is picturesque but can be tiring. We advise departing at dawn to get to Ramnagar by mid-day.
If coming by Rail or Flight: Once you arrive at Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't fret about local transport. We can schedule a pick-up to take you immediately to your hotel or the safari gate.
- Tip: The best schedule for visitors from Auraiya is usually a short package to improve your odds of spotting the Tiger.

Queries for Auraiya Visitors

Q: We are a group of 8 people from Auraiya. Can we fit in one Jeep?
A: The rule is 6 adults + 2 children (below 12 years) per Gypsy. If you are 8 adults, you will definitely need to hire two Gypsies.
