From the Hustle of Gandhidham to the Call of the Jungle: Your Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you weary of the gridlock, the din, and the city life in Gandhidham?
It’s time to exchange the busy streets for the sight of the Spotted Deer. It’s time to forget the concrete of Gandhidham for the green Sal trees of Jim Corbett.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a locally-based travel agency in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we take pride in managing travelers traveling specifically from Gandhidham. We get it that when you travel this far, you don't just want a "drive"—you want an memory.
Whether you are arranging a holiday road trip or catching a flight to arrive at us, here is your comprehensive guide to reserving the best Jeep Safari.
The Journey: Getting to Us from Gandhidham
If road tripping: The road from Gandhidham is scenic but can be lengthy. We propose starting early in the morning to reach Ramnagar by noon.

FAQs for Gandhidham Travelers
Q: Can I drive my own car (SUV/Sedan) inside the park?
A: No. Personal cars are not permitted in the main zones (Bijrani, Dhikala, etc.) for safety reasons. You must move into our registered Gypsy.
Q: We are a group of 8 people from Gandhidham. Can we fit in one Jeep?
A: The legal limit is 6 adults + 2 children (below 12 years) per Gypsy. If you are 8 adults, you will definitely need to hire two Gypsies.
Q: How far in advance should we reserve?
A: Since you are traveling all the way from Gandhidham, you cannot chance "walk-in" bookings. Permits get booked weeks in advance. We advise booking at least 30 days prior to your trip.
Q: Is it safe for families?
A: 100%. Jim Corbett is one of the most secure places to visit in India. Our staff are verified professionals who focus on your safety.
