From the Crowd of Okhla to the Roar of the Jungle: The Ultimate Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you tired of the congestion, the din, and the city life in Okhla?
It’s time to swap the honking cars for the sound of the Wild. It’s time to escape the skyline of Okhla for the green Sal trees of Uttarakhand.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a native travel agency in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we focus in welcoming visitors visiting specifically from Okhla. We understand that when you come this far, you don't just want a "ride"—you want an experience.
Whether you are arranging a vacation getaway or catching a flight to reach us, here is your ultimate guide to securing the ideal Jeep Safari.
The Route: Getting to Us from Okhla
If coming by car: The drive from Okhla is enjoyable but can be lengthy. We recommend departing early in the morning to get to Ramnagar by noon.
If taking a Train or Flight: Once you land at Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't bother about local transport. We can arrange a taxi to take you straight to your stay or the jungle entry.
- Tip: The perfect plan for visitors from Okhla is usually a short package to improve your chances of spotting the Tiger.

A: The capacity is 6 adults + 2 children (below 12 years) per Gypsy. If you are 8 adults, you will definitely need to take two Gypsies.
