From the Crowd of Barwani to the Call of the Jungle: The Ultimate Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you weary of the gridlock, the pollution, and the routine in Barwani?
It’s time to exchange the city lights for the chirping of the Spotted Deer. It’s time to forget the buildings of Barwani for the tall Sal trees of Jim Corbett.

Common Questions for Barwani Travelers
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 move into our registered Gypsy.
Q: We are a group of 8 people from Barwani. Can we fit in one Jeep?
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.
Q: How far in advance should we reserve?
A: Since you are coming all the way from Barwani, you cannot chance "walk-in" bookings. Slots get booked weeks in advance. We suggest booking at least 30 days prior to your trip.

A: Absolutely. Jim Corbett is one of the most secure tourist destinations in India. Our drivers are trusted professionals who focus on your safety.
