From the Crowd of Hauz Khas to the Roar of the Jungle: A Complete Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you sick of the traffic, the commotion, and the city life in Hauz Khas?
It’s time to switch the busy streets for the sight of the Jungle. It’s time to leave behind the buildings of Hauz Khas for the tall Sal trees of Uttarakhand.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a locally-based safari planner in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we focus in managing travelers traveling specifically from Hauz Khas. We realize that when you drive this far, you don't just want a "drive"—you want an experience.
Whether you are arranging a vacation getaway or catching a train to arrive at us, here is your complete guide to booking the perfect Jeep Safari.
The Drive: Getting to Us from Hauz Khas
If coming by car: The route from Hauz Khas is picturesque but can be lengthy. We advise starting early in the morning to get to Ramnagar by noon.
If coming by Rail or Flight: Once you reach Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't fret about taxis. We can book a cab to take you straight to your stay or the safari gate.
- Tip: The ideal plan for visitors from Hauz Khas is usually a 2 Night / 3 Day package to maximize your luck of spotting the Tiger.

Queries for Hauz Khas Visitors

A: No. Personal cars are prohibited in the core zones (Bijrani, Dhikala, etc.) for safety reasons. You must move into our authorized Gypsy.
Q: We are a group of 8 people from Hauz Khas. 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 book two Gypsies.
Q: How far in advance should we reserve?
A: Since you are coming all the way from Hauz Khas, you cannot chance "walk-in" bookings. Slots finish weeks in advance. We recommend booking at least 30 days prior to your trip.

A: Yes. Jim Corbett is one of the most secure tourist destinations in India. Our drivers are trusted professionals who focus on your safety.
