From the Hustle of Bharatpur to the Call of the Jungle: A Complete Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you exhausted of the traffic, the noise, and the routine in Bharatpur?
It’s time to trade the city lights for the call of the Wild. It’s time to leave behind the buildings of Bharatpur for the towering Sal trees of Jim Corbett.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a resident travel agency in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we focus in hosting tourists arriving specifically from Bharatpur. We get it that when you drive this far, you don't just want a "drive"—you want an experience.
Whether you are planning a weekend getaway or catching a transport to get to us, here is your complete guide to booking the ideal Jeep Safari.
The Route: Getting to Us from Bharatpur
If driving: The drive from Bharatpur is beautiful but can be tiring. We advise leaving at dawn to arrive at Ramnagar by noon.
If coming by Rail or Flight: Once you arrive at Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't bother about taxis. We can schedule a cab to take you immediately to your resort or the jungle entry.
- Tip: The best plan for visitors from Bharatpur is usually a 2 Night / 3 Day package to boost your odds of seeing the Tiger.

FAQs for Bharatpur Travelers
Q: Can I drive my personal vehicle (SUV/Sedan) inside the park?
A: No. Private vehicles are not allowed in the core zones (Bijrani, Dhikala, etc.) for safety reasons. You must transfer into our official Gypsy.
Q: We are a group of 8 people from Bharatpur. 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 take two Gypsies.
Q: How far in advance should we reserve?
A: Since you are traveling all the way from Bharatpur, you cannot gamble on "walk-in" bookings. Permits sell out weeks in advance. We suggest booking at least 30 days prior to your trip.
Q: Is it safe for kids?
A: Yes. Jim Corbett is one of the most secure places to visit in India. Our staff are trusted professionals who prioritize your safety.
