From the City Life of Jalandhar to the Call of the Jungle: Your Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you sick of the jams, the commotion, and the daily grind in Jalandhar?
It’s time to switch the honking cars for the call of the Spotted Deer. It’s time to ditch the skyline of Jalandhar for the tall Sal trees of the forest.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a local travel agency in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we focus in managing travelers traveling specifically from Jalandhar. We know that when you travel this far, you don't just want a "ride"—you want an experience.
Whether you are organizing a holiday getaway or catching a transport to get to us, here is your comprehensive guide to reserving the ideal Jeep Safari.
The Route: Getting to Us from Jalandhar
If driving: The drive from Jalandhar is beautiful but can be tiring. We suggest starting at dawn to arrive at Ramnagar by mid-day.
