From the Noise of Panipat to the Sounds of the Jungle: A Complete Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you exhausted of the gridlock, the noise, and the routine in Panipat?
It’s time to trade the honking cars for the sight of the Spotted Deer. It’s time to forget the buildings of Panipat for the majestic Sal trees of Uttarakhand.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a native travel agency in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we take pride in hosting tourists arriving specifically from Panipat. We know that when you travel this far, you don't just want a "ride"—you want an memory.
Whether you are planning a holiday road trip or catching a train to reach us, here is your comprehensive guide to securing the ideal Jeep Safari.
The Route: Reaching Us from Panipat
If road tripping: The drive from Panipat is picturesque but can be long. We propose starting early to arrive at Ramnagar by lunchtime.
If coming by Rail or Flight: Once you get to Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't bother about cabs. We can organize a pick-up to take you immediately to your stay or the jungle entry.
- Tip: The recommended plan for travelers from Panipat is usually a weekend trip to boost your odds of spotting the Tiger.

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