From the City Life of Mehrauli to the Call of the Jungle: A Complete Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you tired of the jams, the noise, and the work stress in Mehrauli?
It’s time to swap the busy streets for the sight of the Spotted Deer. It’s time to ditch the buildings of Mehrauli 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 specialize in serving guests coming specifically from Mehrauli. We get it that when you come this far, you don't just want a "ride"—you want an adventure.
Whether you are thinking of a vacation excursion or catching a train to get to us, here is your comprehensive guide to booking the dream Jeep Safari.
The Trip: Getting to Us from Mehrauli
If road tripping: The journey from Mehrauli is scenic but can be tiring. We suggest leaving early in the morning to get to Ramnagar by lunchtime.
If coming by Rail or Flight: Once you arrive at Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't stress about taxis. We can schedule a car to take you directly to your stay or the jungle entry.
- Tip: The best itinerary for folks from Mehrauli is usually a weekend package to increase your odds of spotting the Tiger.
