From the Chaos of Aurangabad to the Sounds of the Jungle: Your Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you weary of the traffic, the din, and the daily grind in Aurangabad?
It’s time to exchange the city lights for the sound of the Wild. It’s time to leave behind the skyline of Aurangabad for the green Sal trees of Jim Corbett.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a locally-based safari planner in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we specialize in welcoming visitors visiting specifically from Aurangabad. We get it that when you come this far, you don't just want a "ride"—you want an adventure.
Whether you are organizing a vacation excursion or catching a flight to reach us, here is your detailed guide to reserving the ideal Jeep Safari.
The Route: Getting to Us from Aurangabad
If driving: The drive from Aurangabad is scenic but can be tiring. We advise leaving early in the morning to arrive at Ramnagar by noon.
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 taxi to take you comfortably to your resort or the jungle entry.
- Tip: The best plan for folks from Aurangabad is usually a weekend package to boost your chances of seeing the Tiger.

Queries for Aurangabad Visitors
Q: Can I drive my personal vehicle (SUV/Sedan) inside the park?
A: No. Private vehicles are prohibited in the core zones (Bijrani, Dhikala, etc.) for security. You must shift into our official Gypsy.
Q: We are a group of 8 people from Aurangabad. 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 hire two Gypsies.
Q: How far in advance should we book?
A: Since you are coming all the way from Aurangabad, you cannot gamble on "walk-in" bookings. Slots finish weeks in advance. We suggest booking at least 30 days prior to your arrival.
Q: Is it safe for families?
A: Yes. Jim Corbett is one of the safest places to visit in India. Our drivers are verified professionals who value your safety.
