From the Crowd of Lodhi Road to the Sounds of the Jungle: A Complete Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you sick of the traffic, the pollution, and the daily grind in Lodhi Road?
It’s time to switch the city lights for the sight of the Jungle. It’s time to leave behind the buildings of Lodhi Road for the majestic Sal trees of Jim Corbett.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a resident safari planner in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we take pride in serving guests coming specifically from Lodhi Road. We understand that when you travel this far, you don't just want a "ride"—you want an memory.
Whether you are organizing a vacation road trip or catching a transport to arrive at us, here is your ultimate guide to securing the best Jeep Safari.
The Journey: Getting to Us from Lodhi Road
If driving: The road from Lodhi Road is picturesque but can be lengthy. We advise departing at dawn to get to Ramnagar by lunchtime.
If taking a Train or Flight: Once you land at Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't worry about cabs. We can arrange a car to take you comfortably to your hotel or the safari gate.
- Tip: The perfect plan for travelers from Lodhi Road is usually a 2 Night / 3 Day tour to increase your possibility of seeing the Tiger.

Q: We are a group of 8 people from Lodhi Road. 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 absolutely need to book two Gypsies.
