From the Crowd of Pilibhit to the Wilderness of the Jungle: A Complete Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you weary of the congestion, the commotion, and the work stress in Pilibhit?
It’s time to exchange the busy streets for the sound of the Wild. It’s time to escape the concrete of Pilibhit for the tall Sal trees of Uttarakhand.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a local travel agency in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we specialize in managing travelers traveling specifically from Pilibhit. 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 holiday excursion or catching a transport to arrive at us, here is your complete guide to booking the ideal Jeep Safari.
The Route: Getting to Us from Pilibhit
If coming by car: The drive from Pilibhit is beautiful but can be long. We recommend departing at dawn to get to Ramnagar by noon.
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 car to take you directly to your hotel or the jungle entry.
