From the Hustle of Chandrapur to the Call of the Jungle: A Complete Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you sick of the jams, the commotion, and the work stress in Chandrapur?
It’s time to switch the busy streets for the chirping of the Jungle. It’s time to ditch the concrete of Chandrapur for the majestic Sal trees of the forest.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a resident safari planner in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we take pride in welcoming visitors visiting specifically from Chandrapur. We realize that when you drive this far, you don't just want a "ride"—you want an memory.
Whether you are thinking of a vacation road trip or catching a train to get to us, here is your comprehensive guide to securing the best Jeep Safari.
The Journey: Reaching Us from Chandrapur
If road tripping: The road from Chandrapur is scenic but can be tiring. We suggest leaving early to arrive at Ramnagar by mid-day.
If coming by Rail or Flight: Once you reach Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't worry about cabs. We can book a taxi to take you directly to your hotel or the safari gate.
- Tip: The ideal schedule for travelers from Chandrapur is usually a weekend tour to boost your luck of seeing the Tiger.

Queries for Chandrapur Visitors

A: No. Your own cars are not permitted in the core zones (Bijrani, Dhikala, etc.) for security. You must move into our official Gypsy.
Q: We are a group of 8 people from Chandrapur. 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.
