From the City Life of INA Colony to the Roar of the Jungle: A Complete Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you exhausted of the traffic, the noise, and the routine in INA Colony?
It’s time to trade the city lights for the sound of the Wild. It’s time to leave behind the buildings of INA Colony for the tall Sal trees of the forest.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a resident travel agency in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we specialize in hosting tourists arriving specifically from INA Colony. We get it that when you travel this far, you don't just want a "ride"—you want an adventure.

Common Questions for INA Colony Visitors

Q: We are a group of 8 people from INA Colony. 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 absolutely need to hire two Gypsies.
Q: How far in advance should we book?
