From the Crowd of Mussoorie to the Sounds of the Jungle: Your Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you sick of the traffic, the noise, and the work stress in Mussoorie?
It’s time to switch the busy streets for the call of the Jungle. It’s time to leave behind the concrete of Mussoorie for the towering Sal trees of Uttarakhand.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a native tour operator in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we specialize in hosting tourists arriving specifically from Mussoorie. We get it that when you come this far, you don't just want a "drive"—you want an adventure.
Whether you are thinking of a weekend excursion or catching a train to arrive at us, here is your comprehensive guide to reserving the ideal Jeep Safari.
The Route: Reaching Us from Mussoorie
If road tripping: The drive from Mussoorie is picturesque but can be long. We advise leaving early in the morning to reach Ramnagar by lunchtime.
If coming by Rail or Flight: Once you arrive at Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't bother about local transport. We can schedule a pick-up to take you directly to your hotel or the jungle entry.
- Tip: The best schedule for folks from Mussoorie is usually a 2 Night / 3 Day tour to increase your odds of seeing the Tiger.
