From the City Life of Bathinda City to the Wilderness of the Jungle: Your Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you sick of the jams, the din, and the routine in Bathinda City?
It’s time to switch the busy streets for the sound of the Jungle. It’s time to ditch the concrete of Bathinda City for the towering Sal trees of Jim Corbett.

FAQs for Bathinda City Visitors

Q: We are a group of 8 people from Bathinda City. 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.
