From the City Life of Azamgarh to the Roar of the Jungle: The Ultimate Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you weary of the traffic, the commotion, and the work stress in Azamgarh?
It’s time to exchange the honking cars for the sound of the Jungle. It’s time to leave behind the buildings of Azamgarh 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 excel in welcoming visitors visiting specifically from Azamgarh. We understand that when you drive this far, you don't just want a "ride"—you want an story.
Whether you are thinking of a vacation drive or catching a flight to reach us, here is your comprehensive guide to booking the ideal Jeep Safari.
The Route: Reaching Us from Azamgarh
If driving: The drive from Azamgarh is picturesque but can be tiring. We advise leaving at dawn to reach Ramnagar by noon.
If coming by Rail or Flight: Once you land at Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't bother about local transport. We can arrange a pick-up to take you directly to your hotel or the jungle entry.
- Tip: The perfect schedule for tourists from Azamgarh is usually a weekend trip to increase your luck of finding the Tiger.

Common Questions for Azamgarh Travelers
Q: Can I drive my personal vehicle (SUV/Sedan) inside the park?
A: No. Personal cars are not permitted in the core zones (Bijrani, Dhikala, etc.) for safety reasons. You must move into our registered Gypsy.
Q: We are a group of 8 people from Azamgarh. Can we fit in one Jeep?
A: The capacity 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 reserve?
A: Since you are driving all the way from Azamgarh, you cannot chance "walk-in" bookings. Permits get booked weeks in advance. We recommend booking at least 30 days prior to your trip.
Q: Is it safe for families?
A: 100%. Jim Corbett is one of the safest tourist destinations in India. Our staff are vetted professionals who value your safety.
