Are you exhausted of the jams, the commotion, and the city life in Chhota Udaipur?
It’s time to trade the city lights for the sight of the Wild. It’s time to ditch the buildings of Chhota Udaipur for the tall Sal trees of Jim Corbett.

Common Questions for Chhota Udaipur Travelers
Q: Can I drive my own car (SUV/Sedan) inside the park?
A: No. Your own cars are not allowed in the main zones (Bijrani, Dhikala, etc.) for safety reasons. You must move into our official Gypsy.
Q: We are a group of 8 people from Chhota Udaipur. Can we fit in one Jeep?
A: The capacity 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 driving all the way from Chhota Udaipur, you cannot chance "walk-in" bookings. Slots finish weeks in advance. We suggest booking at least 30 days prior to your trip.
