From the Hustle of Chhawla to the Roar of the Jungle: Your Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you tired of the jams, the din, and the city life in Chhawla?
It’s time to swap the city lights for the chirping of the Spotted Deer. It’s time to ditch the skyline of Chhawla for the majestic Sal trees of the forest.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a resident travel agency in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we focus in managing travelers traveling specifically from Chhawla. We realize that when you travel this far, you don't just want a "ride"—you want an experience.
Whether you are arranging a holiday getaway or catching a transport to reach us, here is your ultimate guide to securing the ideal Jeep Safari.
The Route: Reaching Us from Chhawla
If driving: The drive from Chhawla is beautiful but can be tiring. We suggest starting early to arrive at Ramnagar by lunchtime.
If taking a Train or Flight: Once you reach Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't bother about cabs. We can book a pick-up to take you straight to your resort or the jungle entry.
- Tip: The ideal schedule for visitors from Chhawla is usually a 2 Night / 3 Day tour to maximize your chances of finding the Tiger.
